Ann Raithby was born in 1640 to unknown parents.

1679: At the age of 39, Ann was wed to James Dalby, a widower with two children in Lincoln. Following the English Civil War, the City of Lincoln did not fare well as it did not have any industry or a seaport. At the time of this marriage, the city was economically struggling.

1680: Ann and James had their first child William on September 9, 1680 in Roxby cum Risby, Lincolnshire. It is unknown if William married and had children or when he died.

1682: February 27, 1682, Ann gave birth to her second child, Anne Dalby in Roxby cum Risby. Anne died at the age of six on October 16, 1688. Ann also gave birth to another child, Agnes, in 1682. It is unknown if these children were twins or whether Agnes was born in December 1682. Agnes would marry Samuel Sewell (1680-1759) in 1706 in the village of West Halton. They would have a large family: Jaine (1708-1763), Thomas (1710-1729), Elizabeth (1712-1793), Sarah (1713-1750), James (1716-1724), Ellin (1718-1800), Mary (1720-unknown), John (1723-1763), James (1725-1788), Charles (1726-1803), Agnus (1729-1729). There are some interesting facts associated with Agnes- she and her husband had two sons names James. The first James died just before the birth of the second James; presumeably, the family wish to retain the memory of the first child by naming the second for him. Secondly, it is clear that Agnes died as a result of the birth of her last child, Agnes, as she has died on the birthdate of the child.

1683: It is probable that Ann died giving birth to her last child, Agnes, or as a result of too many pregnancies too close together at an advanced age. She is 42 or 43 at the time of her last childbirth. Sometime in 1683, her husband has remarried, Jane Clark. It is presumed that she dies in Roxby cum Risby, the site of her children's birth.
