In the cemetery records Ann is listed as Nancy

Ann was the daughter of Augustine and Elizabeth Bickerstaff. Her mother Elizabeth's maiden name is unknown. Many believe it is McQueen but no actual proof has been found to substantiate this claim. There is no record that Elizabeth was buried in this cemetery.

Augustine has gone by many shortened versions of his name such as August, Augustus, Gus and Tine/Teen, etc. They are all nicknames of his birth name of Augustine. Many records can be found to prove Augustine early on.

Ann has gone by Ann and Nancy, therefore I added Nancy as a nickname as I don't know for certain if that is or was a part of her name as many of the Bickerstaff's went by nicknames of their middle names or shortened versions of their names such as Elizabeth many times is seen as Eliza, Mary was known as Polly, William was known as Uncle Billy, Catherine was known as Kitty, etc.
