They lived near St. Louis while her father worked in a coal mine. Here Ann met David Harris. They were married on August 23, 1851 at Gravis, St. Louis, Missouri. Their first daughter, Elizabeth Ann, was born in St. Louis.
The family left on April 6, 1852 and arrived in Salt Lake Valley September 19, 1852. Ann and David stayed in Salt Lake for a short time and it was here that Elizabeth became an invalid from being accidentally dropped, which injured her spine. Ann and David then moved to Palmyra, Utah where Ann's family had settled.
David caught the gold fever and went to California where he corresponded for a short time and then nothing was heard from him again.
One month after David left, Ann gave birth to Mary Jane. Ann waited three years and when David had not returned, she married William Warner as his second wife. They were parents of ten children.
Ann was a faithful Relief Society teacher for many years and attended all her meetings. She was a devoted wife and mother. She cared for her invalid daughter Elizabeth as long as she was able and when William was stricken with a stroke in 1891, she never tired of caring for him until his death on January 28, 1894.
