Biography

Daughter of James Gwaltney and Margaret Lough

Wife of John Wright Hannaford - it does not appear that they had any children together, although her obituary mentions "adopted" children - they way in which they are mentioned makes it appear that they might be more informal relationships rather than legal adoptions, but it does appear that she likely treated them as her own children.
