She was probably born at Shottery, near Stratford, the daughter of Richard Hathaway, a local landowner.

Their daughter Susanna was born the following May.
Anna Hathaway
After the birth (about 1585) of their twins, Hamnet and Judith, Shakespeare moved to London, probably leaving the family at Stratford. About 1596 Anne and the children were installed in New Place, Stratford, where Anne remained until her death in 1623. Shakespeare often visited his family there and lived there from his retirement in 1611 until his death.
