The only TUBB entries in Ringwould are the two burials.
The note against Ann says W/o Marchant, Deal, & the note against Marchant says London.

Can you look back in those records for an ANN POWELL born in 1722 ??

There's nothing at all for POWELL in Ringwould.

Looking at Google books there is plenty about Marchant TUBB.  You may need to look at Quaker records.

Have you found a will?

[bearkat]

There is a will for Marchant TUBB of Bedford Square Middlesex dated 21 January 1792 on the National Archives documentsonline site

It costs £3.50 to download a copy.

It should mention any survivng children.

Marchant Tubb, born in Bath (bapt. 06 Aug 1732 in Bath Abbey) was a surgeon with property in Jamaica. He married Ann (probably Powell) the widow of Stephen Morant of Jamaica, probably in Jamaica; the marriage was childless and he left everything tied up in a prenuptual agreement to his stepdaughter Mary Powell Morant who married Joseph Royall in London in 1782 and separated from him soon after returning to live with her stepfather in Bedford Square. She died a childless widow in 1816 leaving her Jamaican property Wheelersfield in the parish of St Thomas in the East to her close friend Frances Lee.

The Tubbs were witnesses at the wedding of his close friend Robert Cooper Lee and Priscilla Kelly (parents of Frances) at St George's Hanover Square in 1771.

Marchant's Will of 19 August 1789 left an annuity of £25 a year to his brother John Tubb, an annuity of £25 a year to his sister Elizabeth Wallace and a £300 annuity to his nieces Ann and Susanna Wignall, daughters of his eldest sister Anne. He also left £100 to Robert Cooper Lee, £50 each to John Whiteheand and George Whitehead and £100 at the age of sixteen to his godson Scudamore Cooper Lee to buy books. Everything else was left to his step daughter Mary Powell Royall in a trust to be managed by the executors who were Robert Cooper Lee, John Whitehead and George Whitehead. The witnesses were Stephen and Ann Rigaud. The Will was proved on 1st January 1792.

Hope this helps.

Should perhaps add that the Mormon Family search site are currently indexing Jamaican records and so fairly soon those that exist should be online.
