• Notes

  <p>LifeSketch:Ann would have had to go through some tough transitions. Her grandfather, Massasoit, present at the first Thanksgiving.when the Colonists were accommodated and under the aegis of her grandfather Massasoit. However, her father Metacomet/King Philip), who became the chief of the Wampanoags after his brother Wamsutta/King Alexander) died. Both Wamsutta and Metacomet were sons of Massasoit. Metacomet did his best to carry out the friendly policy of his father and finally reached a point where he decided the Indians had been stepped on and used, so he started a great war named for him: King Philip's War. He was killed in the war and the outcome was horrific for the Indians. It was a sentinel in a way of the conflicts to follow. Some of Ann's near relatives were executed, some shipped off to be sold as slaves in the the West Indies, and so on. Ann and her sister who was called by an English name "Miss Prentice" chose to become "praying Indians" and merge into the society that would prevail. There is no record of whether Ann Philiip's marriage was a marriage to allow her to just survive or a marriage with bond of affinity for her spouse. Ann and John Starkweather married within a year after her father's death. Clearly she had to have been buffeted about with a fleet of emotions to deal with.</p> Anna Starkweather Birth: 1655 Death: 11 Jul 1727 (aged 71–72) Preston, New London County, Connecticut, USA Burial: Preston City Cemetery, Preston, New London County, Connecticut, USA Memorial #: 109649904 Bio: Anna (last name unknown) was the wife of John Starkweather.

Note: Ann (Anna) is believed by some to be the daughter of Metacomet/King Phillip (# 7834408). However, until I see evidence beyond hearsay, I will not make the link.
