Hannah Hyde was born on the 5th October 1837 in Thatcham (or Newbury), in Berkshire, England.

She married George Willis in 1860 (Marriages Mar 1860, Newbury v.2c p.301: Hannah Hyde & George Willis), and she then has a daughter Katherine Ann Willis (Jun Q 1860 Henley v.3a p.498)

But her husband George Willis died one year later in 1861 (Mar 1861 George Willis, Henley v.3a p.355).

So she was a widow when she married John Francis, a blacksmith.

In 1901 Hannah is 62 and still living with John in Ipsden, at a place called the Grove. She is there with her husband, and her son Edwin who is 22. Her other children (William, Sarah, John) have moved to Reading where they are running a butcher's shop.

Death

Hannah died on the 24th March 1907, and was buried at St John the Evangelist, Stoke Row, Oxfordshire. Her husband died 9 years later in 1916 and was buried in the same grave.
