Birth Place: Guysborough, Guysborough, Nova Scotia, Canada [7][8]
Alternate Birth Place: Preston, New London County, CT [9]
Parents
NOTE: Below are two sets of possible parents. One from Canada and one from Conneticut, all dependant on whether Hannah immigrated as a youth to Canada or she was born there. There are no primary sources for either. Below each set are the clues and reasons that those parents would be hers:
Grandparents, (NOTE: Maybe same as grandparents below, therefore Isaiah and Asa may be brothers or the same person with different variations as claimed by: [7])
Mother: ? BARBARY (1740, Guysborough, Nova Scotia—1786), md: 1763 [4][7][8]
REASON these are likely correct:
Have the same last name already in the same country (CT, USA) where she will spend most of her life.
Alternate Father: Asa LARIBEE, (23 Aug 1741, Griswold, or Preston City, Preston, New London, CT, British Colonial America—1780, Long Island, NY) [11][9]
Grandmother, Dorothy CLARK (23 Apr 1710 in Preston City, New London, CT—?) [11][9] (*25 further generations on Wikitree; on Geni.com: [12]; on Familysearch: [13])
Alternate Mother: Barbara (SHOEMAKER ?) (1744—?) [11][9] (NOTE: The name SHOEMAKER was just added as a place holder by Frederick Adams, and avid genealogist in Mass. [7])
REASONS these are likely correct:
Her name is on the list in 1784 as imigrating to Canada (See 1784 below). If this is her, then she whould have parents not from Canada
Life: Pre-Marriage
1784: On the 21st of June, five teenage orphans, in the care of John and Bethany CLARKE, arrived by ship with the Loyalists and disbanded soldiers of the "Associated Departments of the Navy and Army" at Guysborough, Nova Scotia. two children under 10, Abigale and Elizabeth, probably belonging to the CLARKES, traveled with them. The teenagers were: [10][6][5]
Ann (or Hannah) LARIBE, age 20 (The oldest, Ann, was also known as Hannah. [4])[6][5][14]
John LARIBE, age 18 (twin?) [6][5]ref name="familysearch/KPWN-P8D" />
The children listed above were probably born in Connecticut, not Guysborough, Nova Scotia. The children went to Nova Scotia with John and Bethany Clark, as claimed without sources in the following profile for Isaiah in a collaboration by Nanette Nelson: [14]
Their father, Asa joined the military in 1777 in Connecticut. (It is believed that the religious leader used Isaiah when he joined.) [14]
NOTE. CONCLUSION: Her parents are likely BOTH of the above sets (More proof is need before these sets can be merged):
Their father's names are similar, (Asa vs Isaiah), and little is known of the mother's names.
Both sets of parents could have acturally been born in Connecticut. The claim of Isaiah and wife being from Guysborough, Nova Scotia is very weak with only one claimant without sources: [14]
It is also likely that all the children were born in Connecticut before both sets of parents died and then they immigrated in 1784 as orphans to Guysborough, Nova Scotia.
Hannah (Ann) married James McKENZIE 3 months later that same year, giving a possible reason as to why they all moved to Guysborough, with Hannah and James probably finishing raising them.
Daughter, Mary McKENZIE (GLEN), (7 Jun 1788, Guysborough, Nova Scotia—5 Apr 1829, Guysborough, Nova Scotia) +md: Thomas GLEN, (abt. 1772—3 Jul 1865) [4][7]
Son, Donald McKENZIE, (chr: 24 Jun 1798, Guysborough, Nova Scotia—?) +md: Christina MUNRO, (17 Nov 1801, Guysborough , Nova Scotia—?), daughter of John MUNRO (1755—?) and Elizabeth MARSHALL, (1774—1807) [4][7][9]
1786: She was baptized in April, in Christ Church, Guysborough, Nova Scotia. Her siblings, John, Isaiah (twins both age 13) and Susan, age 14, were also baptised that year in the same church. [4][6][5]
Death Place: Guysborough Intervale, Nova Scotia [3][7][8][9]
Burial: Christ Church Anglican Cemetery, Guysborough, Guysborough County, Nova Scotia, Canada [3]

DNA Connections
It may be possible to confirm family relationships with Hannah by comparing test results with other carriers of her mitochondrial DNA.
However, there are no known mtDNA test-takers in her direct maternal line.
It is likely that these autosomal DNA test-takers will share some percentage of DNA with Hannah:
