Birth*18 January 1710Anne Williams was born on 18 January 1710.3 
Name VariationShe was referred to as Anna in the Field Genealogy.3 
Marriage*4 November 1733She married as his first wife Zebulon Field, son of Richard Field and Susanna Waldo, on 4 November 1733 in Bridgewater.1,3,4,5 
(Grantor's Wife) Land Records23 February 1739Anne Field and her husband Zebulon Field, a Taunton husbandman, made a 20-year lease agreement with William Leonard of Norton, cordwainer, on 23 February 1739 for a certain parcel of land meadow and upland lying on the easterly side of the Mill River in Taunton. More specifically, it was located southerly and east from the land of Ephraim Wetherell, south from Edward Adams's land, west from Abiel Williams's land and northly from Zebulon and Anne Field's fence, where it then stood, on the way to Joseph White's house. The lease agreement stated that William Leonard, or any of the others mentioned, shall not make use of, or remove, or cause it to be sold, in any way whatsoever, any hay straws, dung, stones or timber growing or lying on the land. The agreement also instructed William to let no timber or wood lie or rot useless on the land and gave William the free liberty to break and subdue the land with free liberty to use any timber and stone as necessary for building a house, barn and fence upon the land. The indenture of lease was to be in effect for 20 years, and become void on 23 February 1759. The agreement was witnessed by John Gibson and Abraham White and recorded in Bristol County on 14 January 1746/47.6 
(Grantor's Wife) Land Records13 July 1739Anne Field and her husband Zebulon Field of Taunton, yeoman, sold land in Taunton, Bristol County, on 13 July 1739 to William Leonard, a cordwainer, for the sum of £10. The deed was recorded 7 August 1739 and described the property as one certain tract of land in Taunton situated on the east side of the trodden road from the dwelling house of John Gibson, toward Jeremiah Wetherell's, and on the southerly side of the way called Williams Way, laid out from Zebulon and Anne Field's dwelling house toward Norton and bounded to begin at a corner stake standing 3 rods from Ebenezer Lincoln's northerly line and 4 rods from the said trodden highway and to run easterly from the beginning stake 20 rods to another corner stake, then northerly 8 rods to a stake for a corner, then westerly 20 rods to another corner stake, then southerly 8 rods to the corner first mentioned.2 
Relationship Note*Based upon the proximity of their properties in Taunton, there was very likely a sibling or other close family relationship between Anne (Williams) Field, James Williams and Abiel Williams.2 
Death*before 22 February 1749/50She died before 22 February 1749/50 when her husband married again.3 
(Lessor's Wife) Land Records3 December 1750 On 3 December 1750, almost eleven years after Anne and her husband Zebulon Field made a 20-year lease agreement with William Leonard for land on the easterly side of the Mill River in Taunton, William Leonard, cordwainer of Taunton, and his wife Sarah Leonard sub-leased the property to their son James Leonard 4th "so called", also a cordwainer of Taunton. The sub-lease restated the original lease's expiration date of 23 February 1759 and was recorded in Bristol County on 13 December 1750.7
