Ann married John Yarrow of Little Thetford in 1829, and the couple became parents twice before she died prematurely in 1843 at just 34 years old. Their youngest child was only about 11 years old.

Widower John then went on to re-marry to Elizabeth Jeffery of Ely, and they soon extended the family with four more children.

When John died in 1858, he was buried with Ann. Elizabeth out-lived him by 38 years, and was buried in Little Thetford.
