The birth county was determined from the pension papers of Jonathan Hughes, in which he said where he was living at the time of the birth of this child. Jonathan said he removed "to Greenbrier County VA in middle of January 1792 until he removed in 1808 to Harrison County, Virginia." A timeline of her parent's various locations, based on Jonathan's pension application is available.

The following Notes from Suzan Wedig:
"Hannah is one of the few children of Jonathan and Abigail who married outside the Seventh Day Baptist faith. (from personal research)."

"Will of grandmother, Susannah Hughes, Hannah was given a cow, calf, red heffer and a ewe with lambs. In the will, Hannah is listed immediately after her father, Jonathan."

"Hannah married July 8, 1859 to William Lloyd Davis after death of Adam Ash in Harrison Co. (W)VA. Davis was first married to Catherine Ash, sister of Adam Ash."

"1870 Federal census - Tyler Co., WV McElroy Dist. Living with daughter and son-in-law, Sarah and Ellis Underwood."


Another user has added the following comment though the above 1850 census lists Hannah with her husband in 1850 - and the Hannah in this Ohio census was born in New York. Continuing efforts to resolve this issue.
"1850 Federal census Ohio - Hannah and her sister Martha went on an extended visit to see Hannah's daughter Maria Louisa Harrison in Ohio and were included vaguely in census. There were family issues. Per letters."
