Biography

Ann Skitch was born on 1 June 1825 in Stratton, Cornwall, ENG.1,2 She and William Thompson were married on 15 June 1843 in New Plymouth, NZ.2 She died on 21 May 1902, at age 76, in Glanville, S.A, AUS.2
Ann was born on June 1st 1825 in Stratton, Cornwall, England, the third child of cordwainer Robert and Honor (Smeeth) Skitch. Robert died tragically in 1826 at the age of 27, leaving his 7-month-pregnant wife to raise 4 children alone - no easy task. In the 1841 Stratton census, Honor was living with her youngest son, Robert. Eldest son, William, recently married, was living in nearby Bude, and daughter, Jane, was a servant in the same town. Just prior to that date, a friend of Ann had booked passage to New Zealand on the Blenheim, looking after children in return for payment of her fare, but at the last moment backed out of the arrangement. Ann decided to go in her place. After a voyage of nearly 5 months, she arrived at New Plymouth with 17/- in her purse, having to find accommodation and a position. It is believed that her future husband, William Thompson, carried her ashore from the Blenheim's skiff. They were married 15 June 1843, their first son, William, arriving in May 1844. In 1845 they left for Australia, where they had another 6 children. Ann died in Glanville, South Australia, 21 May 1902. If you have a connection with Ann or would like to learn more please contact Barbara and Peter hunter@nhb.com. Ann Skitch immigrated to ENG to New Zealand on the Blenheim arriving 19 Nov 1842 in 1842.1 She emigrated from New Plymouth to Adelaide on the Paul Jones in April 1845.2,3
