Born in 1853 at a hacienda in Texas Territory, born deaf. She was joined by a younger sister, Maria, a year later. When Ana was two, her father went to Mexico City on business and was never seen again; she didn't even know his name, much less what he looked like. Her mother raised the girls on her own for some years before she remarried. By the time she was ten, Ana's new father had turned dark and abusive, given to drink. He hated the girls for no reason they could fathom, and especially having to deal with Ana's handicap, and eventually sent her away to a "hospital" for "treatment." It was the last she ever saw her family alive.
She was adopted from the hospital, in 1865, by a childless older couple—the wife was also deaf—who took her away with them to the north, into New Mexico Territory, and later Colorado Territory, raising her alongside some other adoptees. She grew up on the couples' ranch, received a decent education and learned how to effectively communicate in spite of her handicap. The ranch-hands there treated her as a sister. One of them in particular, Enoch Kimble, took a special liking to her. In 1875, Enoch married Ana, and took her with him to a new ranch he was starting outside a mining camp in the San Juan Mountains in SW Colorado.
It was at the new ranch outside Babylon that she finally received word that her younger sister, Maria, had died in childbirth, in 1872, and her mother, Juanita, had been killed by her new husband, before he was also killed in a confrontation with a drifter, earlier that year in 1875.
