Anna Hayden is the third of fifteen children and the oldest daughter born to Henrietta Cole and the American Patriot Basil Hayden, a signer of the" Maryland Oath of Fidelity and Support 1778". Basil Hayden Sr. led the first Catholic Colony from Maryland to Nelson Co. KY in 1785, along with his wife and children, except 16 year old Anna who stayed in Maryland to care for her widowed 80 year old grandmother. About the same time her grandmother died, Anna married Daniel Durbin in Baltimore MD. (Hayden, Rapier and Allied Family: Colonial MD and KY by Mary Louise Donnelly). Anna and Daniel Durbin had thirteen children. The youngest son, Basil, was named for Anna's father, Basil Hayden. Many of Anna's adult children are buried in Catholic cemeteries in Ohio, also linking Anna to the Kentucky Hayden Catholic heritage. It is not known when or where Anna died, but her youngest child was born June 1812. With numerous small children, it is likely Anna died shortly before her widowed husband remarried in 1814.
