Her birth year is not known and has been guesstimated about 1560, based on her marriage date of 1578 and her parents' marriage in about December 1554. Anne married twice. On 23 April 1578 she wed William Gilbert[3] at Blicking, Norfolk.[1][2][4] They had four children, all of whom were named in their father's will (dated 27 February 1607/8 and proved on 12 May 1609):[5] Henry,[1][2] named in the will of Anne's father Edward Clere[6] John[1][2] Clere, who married Robert Newton[1][2][7] and John Beresford[1][2] and was named in the will of Anne's father Edward[6] Temperance, who married John Alsop and William Hopkins[1][2] and was named in the will of Anne's father Edward[6] In 1575 William Gilbert acquired Mickleover, Derbyshire, which became his main residence.[1][2] William Gilbert was buried on 21 February 1607/8.[8] In about 1610 Anne remarried, her second husband being Okeover Crompton of Ormesby, Norfolk.[1][2] In 1615 Anne's brother Edward granted her and Okeover an annuity of £30.[1][2] Anne died a little before 4 November 1616, quite likely in Norfolk where her second husband had property.[1][2] Sources 1 Douglas Richardson.
