Hannah Swartz ¹ ² ³

Born: 1848, Ohio, United States ³
Marriage (1): William Henry Downs about 1876 ¹
Died: After 1 June 1880

bullet Noted events in her life were:

1. Alt. Birth, 18 June 1850, Fairfield, Ohio, United States. ² If her birth date was 18 Jun 1850, then she should not have been listed on the 1850 US Census. Because the census listed an even younger sister at 2 months old, this suggests that Hannan could not have been born in 1850 but most likely in 1848. This birth date was also referenced by her age of 29 on the 1880 US Census.
