Christening of Ann Lee in the IGI on 8 November 1713 in Cranley, Surrey, Father John Lee.
Marriage of Ann Lee and Jonas Chitty in the IGI on 25 June 1738 at Cranley, Surrey.
Similar information is in the West Surrey Family History Society West Surrey Marriage Index adding both were of this parish and it was by banns.
All the children were christened in Cranleigh, his name being spelt Iones in the case of Anne, and the surname being spelt Chitty in all cases. Her name, Anne, is only given for Jonas and James. However the will also mentions a daughter Sarah, and the only possible christening for her is the daughter of Jones Chitty in Shere in 1746 (which fills a gap in the other christenings). The will also mentions Henry, but I can find no christening for him, but he was most likely born about 1743.
Entry in the West Surrey Family History Society West Surrey Burials for Ann Chitty on 16 August 1778 in Cranleigh.
John Nichols had an entry on a website for Ann Lee who married Jonas Chitty on 25 June 1738 in Cranley, Surrey, and had nine children (two entries for Hannah, the first of which has the same christening date as George).
Cranley is the old spelling of Cranleigh - it was changed by the Post Office in 1864 to prevent confusion with Crawley.
Ann Lee was Felicity's fifth great grandmother.
