Ann de Wever Lottridge

Spelled and referred to variously, Ann de Wever Lottridge was the wife and then possibly the widow of one-time Albany resident William Lottridge.

Perhaps she was the daughter of one Abraham and Anna "Kerner" de Wever of Schenectady. If so, she may have been christened in March 1750.

In November 1767, this subject married William Lottridge "from Albany" at the Dutch church in Schenectady. At that time, she was identified as of "Rensselaerswyck." By 1787, the marriage had produced at least five children.

Except for church-based information, we have not yet connected the couple to a home residence.

In June 1794, Rensselaerswyck Manor records of "accounts and receipts" noted that "Ann Lottridge" was paid on two occasions for spinning quantities of wool over the last year for the "Oil Mill."

In 1799, the "W"[? location] house only of Ann Lottridge/Weaver was assessed modestly. Perhaps it bore some association to the multiple Weaver-named households appearing on the Watervliet census in 1790 and 1800.
