Biography

Hannah Johnson married Thomas Hunt in 1864.^[1]

Hannah Hunt of Cambridge Road, Southport (wife of Thomas Hunt) died 30 Dec 1895, with administration granted in Liverpool on 22 Jan 1896 to said Thomas Hunt, farmer.^[2] Hannah Hunt, aged 74, was buried 3 Jan 1896.^[3]

Research Notes

Hannah was born in North Meols in about 1821 according to the census. According to her marriage record, her father was Richard Johnson, farmer, and her residence was Marshside. No baptism record or census records prior to her marriage in 1864 have been found for Hannah. However, Richard Johnson (1783-1860) had a daughter named Joanna who was the right age to be the same person as Hannah.^[4][5] Richard worked as a farmer and lived at Marshside, so all of the details seem to fit.
