      The record of Annie's burial indicates she was the daughter of Presley & Druzilla. Perhaps she is Jemima Leann? I don't find any record of Jemima after the 1860 census and the ages match.

      In 1860, Sandy Petty is next after Presley and has a daughter named Ann of the right age. Is he Presley's brother???
