Ann was living alone by 1841, in a small village called Ryme. The census showed no house numbers or road names, there were only around 80 people there. Ann Taylors parents by that time were interred in the Fleet Prison. No reason can be found, but the Fleet Prison was solely for Debtors and Bankrupts...
A small hand written side note in the Congregational Church records of Sherborne infers the death of a "Mrs. Ann Hyatt" in Febuary 1832. This appears not to be the case, it is the time when Ann left (or was abandoned by) John to return to her home village of Ryme. Presumably, being a churchman, John did not want any scandal regarding her parents imprisonment.
