Thread: Hanna family link between canada and Ireland

I am looking for Sainnle or Samuel Hanna (B. approx 1825). He was born in Ireland and migrated to canada. He is burried in the Boilingbrook Cemetary in Ontario Canada. More inportantly I'm looking for his parents.

Ah, just found it - Bolingbroke Cemetery, Sherbrooke, Lanark, Ontario

http://shrinkalink.com/26505



Listed as Samuel HANNA b1825-d1906. Indicates wife? is Mary JORDAN.

Buried in Plot 100, as are a number of other HANNA's and others yet again in other Plots, some if not all who are related.



The actual death Cert (South Sherbrook, Lanark) shows he definitely died 1905, not 1906. He was Canada methodist. Married (Though I think wife Mary predeceased him?) Informant is son John.



1891: South Sherbrooke, Lanark, Ontario

Head: Samuel HANNA 67, farmer, b Ireland, parents b Ireland

Wife: Mary HANNA 62, b Scotland, parents b England

Son: John HANNA 22, Farmer, b Ontario, father b Ireland, mother b Scotland

Dau: Mary HANNA 20, b Ontario, father b Ireland, mother b Scotland

Dau: Ella HANNA 8, b Ontario, father b Ireland, mother b Scotland

Ad. Son: Ernest HANNA 5, b Ontario, parents b Ontario

Religion Methodist

Further - there are 3 other HANNA households on the same page...will write them up in a mo...



1901: South Sherbrooke, Lanark, Ontario

Head: Samuel HANNAH 77, farmer, b Ireland 18 Jan 1824, imm 1831

Wife: Mary HANNAH 73, b Scotland 17 Oct 1827, imm 1837

Son: John HANNAH 33, F. laborer, b Ontario 24 May 1867

dau: Louella HANNAH 18, b Ontario 12 Aug 1882

Grandson: J Ernest HANNAH 15, b Ontario 2 Jul 1885

Religion: C Methodist



When Louella married in 1908 she named her parents as Samuel HANNA and Mary JORDAN - surely she cannot have been the born-daughter of Samuel's wife Mary who would have been abt 54 when Louella was born. So maybe the child Mary was adopted...?



And, if Samuel immigrated 1831, he must have been a child of abt 7 years at the time - indicating parent(s) probably also came to Canada.......And:



1851: Sherbrooke, Lanark, Ontario

(m) Will'm HANNAH 57, Farmer, b Irland, CofE

(f) Mrs HANNAH 53 b Irland

(m) Samuel HANNAH 28, Labourer, b Irland

(m) Thos HANNAH 23, Labourer b Irland

(f) Oshur HANNAH 20, b Canada

(f) Letisha HANNAH 14, b Canada

(f) Ann HANNAH 11, b Canada

(f) Martha HANNAH 9, b Canada

CENSUS 1871:

William HANNA, is listed as head of a Household in the 1871 Ontario "Head of Household Census" So (seperately) is his son, Samuel HANNA.

Both in Sherbrook, Lanark.



CENSUS 1881

Sherbrooke South, Lanark South, Ontario

William HANNAH 85 widow, b Ireland , Farmer Church of England

Leititia HANNAH 43, b Quebec C. Methodist

Charlott HANNAH 41 b Ontario C. Methodist



DEATH:

William HANNA died 5 Nov 1881 of old age, age 86, South Sherbrooke, Lanark

Farmer b Ireland, methodist.

Informant was a methodist preacher of Sherbrook, but the date of registration was not until 17 Feb 1882.



William's wife was Letitia CARDWELL as found on the death of their daughter Letitia (Samuel's sister):

DEATH:

Letitia HANNA died 16 Mar 1914 age 77, South Sherbrooke, Lanark

Born \Canada, Buried in Bolinbroke, Retired, Single.

Parents WIlliam HANNAH and Letitia CARDWELL

Informant was her Physician



Samuel's other sister Charlotte's death, names only her father. No Provision for naming her mother on the form.

DEATH:

Charlotte HANNA died 7 Apr 1908 age 68 yrs South Sherbrooke, Lanark

b South Sherbrook, Weaver, single, name of father :William HANNA.

Informant: Frederick HANNA



Think this is the death of William's wife (and Samuel's mother):

DEATH:

Lititia HANNA died 20 May 1877, farmer, died of old age age 78 yrs, South Sherbrooke, Lanark

Religion Episcopalion



There is so much more to see for this family - but there it is: the (likely)parents of Samuel HANNA who is buried in Bolingbrook. Also important to note, is they may have spent some time in Quebec - as this is where Samuel's sister Letitia HANNA (the daughter of William and Letitia) is said to have been born, per the 1881 Census.

Hey AnnieB thanks for all the info. I had come across the info before but couldn't confirm it. Hopefuly I can go further back from this.

Thanks again.

Hi



Just wondered - if you are already aware that Samuel's brother - Thomas Cardwell HANNA, and his wife Jessie Ruth JUDSON & children along with her father Nathan B JUDSON, ended up in Minnesota? Looks like they entered the US abt 1870 in Minnesota, settling first in Wabasha County, then moved to Polk County in 1880. Thomas died in 1881 (same year as his eldest daughter Eliza and his father-in-law, Nathan JUSDON).

Hi Folks,

I am new to this forum and found it by chance.

I have a Mary Anne Cardwell in my tree who married a Robert Hanna in 1848. Mary Anne Cardwell was born in 1824. The name Letitia Cardwell is that of one of her Aunts. As with most irish families it was not uncommon for possibly a few family members to be married into the same families. eg two brothers marrying two sisters or similar so I was curious as to your Cardwell and Hanna connections. Do you know where in Ireland they hailed from???

Mine were from the Dromore, County Down. Roberts father was John Hana and Mary Annes, William Cardwell.



Look forward to your replies.

Hi, I am new to this forum and found it today by chance. My G-Grandfather is Samuel Hanna born 1825 Ireland. Samuel's parents are William Hanna and Letitia Mary Cardwell. William and Mary were maried July 5th, 1816. Killyman Parish Registers, County Tyrone in Northern Ireland. I would like to connect to family for my Hanna and Cardwell line. Would like to find who William Hanna's parents are and any siblings.



Thank You
