William was only 18 at the time and Anne was 26. She was also pregnant. To hide that she was pregnant before marriage, they had a quick wedding. 6 months later , she gave birth to Suzanna, their first out of 3 children. 2 years later, the couple had twins, Hamnet and Judith. Hamnet died at age 11 because of unknown causes. Judith was the last living child.
