Anne died some time before 29 November 1708.

She married John Goode abt 1668 and known children are Robert, Elizabeth, John, and Joseph. There is believed to be several more children born to the marriage.

In 1681 John and Ann sold a 200 acre portion of Whitby to William Stowers and William Giles (Henrico Co., Deeds and Wills, 1677-92, p. 189).
**************************************
Anne (Bennett) Goode is not the daughter of Gov. Richard Bennett. The life of the governor's daughter was well documented contemporaneously through his will, through court documents in her legal battles with her deceased husband's brother (John Bland of London), and mostly through her son Richard Bland I, grandson Richard Bland II (the famous one), and great grandson Richard Bland III, as captured in the genealogy written by them and included in "The Bland Papers" of Richard Bland II's nephew, Col. (and Congressman) Theodorick Bland. Anna (Bennett) Bland did remarry after 1st husband Theodorick Bland died (1629-1671), but she married St Leger Codd, by whom she had two children, and they lived in Maryland with the Puritan/Quaker community founded by her father and brother (also named Richard Bennett), and where she died in 1687. Anna (Bennett) Bland's identity is also documented--by herself--by the engraved words on her husband Theodorick's gravestone as the Governor's daughter.

However, the Governor had at least two male relatives in Virginia and several more in England who may be the father of your Anne (Bennett) Goode. One reason I think this is because someone of the Goode family purports to have DNA evidence tying themselves to Anna (Bennett) Bland. Also, early references to Anne (Bennett) Goode describe her as being from Holland, where many early Puritans (including some Bennetts) sought refuge before they moved to the Colonies. Also, the governor had either a cousin (son of his uncle Edward) or a brother named Robert in Virginia. Note that Anne Goode's first son appears to be named Robert. I hope to sort these Bennetts as much as can be during the next year, because I descend from Anna & Theodorick and my husband is said to descend from the governor's uncle Edward. I'll keep Anne Goode in mind because she may be a huge clue to all the other Bennetts. If you descend from Anne (Bennett) Goode, I'll be happy to keep you in my loop and share info. Happy hunting, Barbara
