     Anne Jane Laurison was also known as Anne Jane Harper.⁶ On her cemetery Record she was listed as Jane Ann.⁷ She was born on 15 May 1823 at Ireland; Both of Anne's parents were listed as having been born in England. Anne's birth date varies over the course of time to the point where the census of 1860 indicates that she was born in 1830. Her emigration record would indicate that she was born in 1821.^7,1,8,3 She was the daughter of William Laurison.⁵ She she seems to have first married a George Harper on 7 February 1848 at Belfast, Ireland; On this record, Her name was given as Ann Jane Laurenson.⁹ On 6 January 1851 Anne Jane Laurison Harper married Uriah Pratt, son of Uriah Pratt and Elizabeth Wolfe, at Parsonstown, Offaly County, Ireland.^10,6,11 Not long after their marriage, on 7 April 1851 they immigrated to New York, New York; They traveled aboard the Vessel Franchise, embarking from Liverpool.

     How did Uriah end up marring Anne Laurison in County Offaly, Ireland and eventually settling in Kent County, Michigan? The explanation may lie in their ties to the non-conformist Wesleyan Methodist religion to which this Pratt family belonged. There may be an explanation. Uriah and brother William were baptised as Wesleyan Methodists. Anne, probably born in Norther Ireland (Belfast?), the daughter of English parents could also have been a Wesleyan Methodist. If Anne's parents were Wesleyans, they could have become aquainted with the Pratts through the Church before they settled in Ireland. To accommodate a growing Methodist congregation following the preaching of John Wesley in the late 18th century, a Methodist Church known as Wesley Chapel was built in 1820 on Emmett Street in Birr (formerly called Parsonstown), County Offlay Ireland. That well could have been the church that Anne and Uriah were married in before leaving for the New World. "The Wesleyan Methodist Curch in the United States was organized on May 14, 1841. The first secessions in 1841 took place in Michigan although the new church group was formalized in Utica, New York".
