Early records on this family are sketchy, but her name appears to be Anna (see the 1830 census, Town of Milford, Otsego County, NY).She was probably named after her grandmother, Anna (Scott) Quackenbush.I have her as a possible daughter of Isaac and Dirkje (Van Alstyne) Quackenbush as they lived in Otsego County at the time of the 1790 census.The Quackenbushes spoke Dutch well into the early 1800's, so you may also find her under the Dutch name of Annetje, which was later anglicized to both Ann and Nancy.
I have never found a marriage record for Levy and Anna Hungerford, but I estimated their marriage date as 1787.According to the 1790 census, their first born was a daughter, then their son Daniel was born 8 Oct. 1790 according to the baptism records of the Fonda Dutch Reformed Church.
Isaac Quackenbush and Dirkje Van Alstyne were married 17 July 1769 at the Stone Arabia Dutch Reformed Church.If Anna was their first born, she would have been born about 1770, and therefore would have been about 17 if she married Levy Hungerford around 1787.
Sorry I can't give you more exact answers but records during this time are few and far between.In addition, there is a major gap in the Fonda Dutch Reformed Church records from August 1787 to July 1790.
