• Name	Anne "Aunt Nancy" Battee  [1]
  Birth	29 Dec 1747	Anne Arundel Co., Maryland
  Gender	Female
  Death	Anne Arundel Co., Maryland   [2]
  Hayman seems to say that she died in 1788, but this can't be so if she helped to raise children after her daughter Mary's death in 1812.
  Origins
  Patriarch & Matriarch	Fardinando Battee, Sr.           b. Abt 1630             d. Abt 1705, "Essex", Anne Arundel Co., Maryland  (Age 75 years)  (Great Grandfather)  Mary             d. 1691  (2 x Great Grandmother)
  Notes	Her sister Elizabeth was the last Battee to own Essex Farm. According to Harris Franklin, "Ann, ‘Aunt Nancy,' is one of the most interesting members in the [Franklin] family. Mary [her oldest child] died early in life, leaving 4 young chldren & Elizabeth [her youngest son Thomas' first wife] also died young leaving 4 children - Aunt Nancy took it upon herself to raise them at ‘Oakland' - This was done with most loving care - Today [in the 1920s] at Oakland there still booms a rose planted by ‘Aunt Nancy' not later than 1819. & like the rose the memory of ‘Aunt Nancy' blooms in our heards for the self-sacrificing core & devotion shown those babys. But for her many of these pages would never have been needed. 8/13/1925, J.H.F." “Ann Battee” appears on the 1776 provincial census for Anne Arundel Co. [3, 4]
