| Biography* | She was baptized in Hollingbourne, September 16, 1630, as 'Anne, the dau. of Thomas Culpeper, esq.' Ralph Thoresby's pedigree of Danby of the West Riding of Yorkshire (Ducatus Leodiensis (1715), p. 202; Cf. also LeNeve, Book of Knights, Harl. Soc. Pub., viii, 436) shows Christopher Danby's marriage to 'Anne, d. of... second brother (sic) of John, Lord Colepepper.' Dr. Stanard's trained eye was the first to note (Va. Mag., i, 83) that this marriage took place in Virginia. Christopher Wandesford (1592-1640), who was lord deputy of Ireland for a few months following Strafford, had two daughters, Catherine, who married Sir Thomas Danby of Thorpe Perrow, and Alice (1627-1707), who married William Thornton of East Newton. Mrs. Thornton kept a diary, which has been edited for the Surtees Society (Publications, 1875, lxii, 139-224). Writing about 1668, she makes bitter complaint of the ingratitude of the wife of her nephew, Christopher Danby: "Thus did this woman requite my kindness.... I was forced to give of my disbursements for maintaining of herself, husband, and children on all accounts whatever for the space of twenty years: they being cast out of favor by Sir Thomas Danby on her inveighling his son to marry her in Virginia, and her pride afterwards." The editor for the Surtees Society records that this Anne Culpeper was buried at York in 1695. She apparently had descendants who returned to Virginia. Her son, Anstropus Danby of Farnley, Yorkshire, knighted 1691 and subsequently M. P., had P.C.C. Admon. November 20, 1703, on the estate of Thomas Goodrich, late of Virginia, infant, on the allegation that he was 'uncle on the mother's side and next of kin.' On this Dr. Stanard argues persuasively (Va. Mag., xx, 94) that this Thomas Goodrich was a grandson of Anne Culpeper: that she left a dau. who m. the Joseph Goodrich shown by the Essex (VA) records to have died ante. 1703, seized of lands in that county and leaving sons in the colony.2 |
