Ann was the 5th child of Thomas Barrand and Susannah Cook born on the 9th April, 1789 and baptised on the 10th May, 1789 at St. Mary’s Church, St. Marylebone as Ann Barren.
Another researcher has suggested she died in 1808 and was buried on the 28th August, 1808, but I do not think this is correct and this cannot be confirmed, although the records for St. Anne’s Church do indeed show the burial of an “Ann Barron” from St. Anne’s Church, Soho, and there is no other Ann Barron in the records for the church, but there is no age shown on this record.
The reason I believe this to be incorrect is because on the 1841 census for St. Annes, Soho it shows Elizabeth Stead (Steed) (nee Barrand) living at Princes Street East Side, and also living with her is an Ann Barrand, aged 50 +/- so born about 1790 and this can only be Ann Barrand above, Elizabeth's sister.
Ann Barrand appears to have been a servant all her working life and I cannot find Ann on the 1851 census however, nor is there any death record shown under the name Barrand, so she may have probably died by then or may have married, but this is unlikely at the age of 50. I cannot find any exact record to substantiate either but the most likely option is the entry in the City of London Union Workhouse in West Street which shows an Ann Barnard's (sic) burial on the 11th May, 1842, where the age is only shown as an adult, age "Unknown". This also seems to be correct as it is also in the same workhouse that John Stead died in 1833. The BMD records her name as Ann Barnard and the reference is Hackney 4th Qtr (3-133)
