NOTES:
1: According to the 1900 Census, Anna was the mother of 5 children, only 2 of which were living at that time. I believe that James and Margaret died in childhood, as well as an infant that I've not yet identified.
2: Anna's age and year of birth is confusing. Her headstone inscription gives her year of birth as 1834, which would have made her 93 at the time of her death, but the age given consistently in the various census returns would indicate a birth year of about 1839, making her about 88 when she died.
UPDATE 19 Jul 2014: Anna's death certificate records her date of birth as 15 April 1834 and her age as 93 years, 1 month and 13 days.
UPDATE 27 Mar 2015: Anna's baptism record records that she was baptized on 20 April 1839.
3: Anna (Madden) Hanrahan was born in what became the Irish free State (now the Republic of Ireland), and emigrated to the USA with her parents in about 1848/49.
4: The above information is based on a variety of internet sources, including scanned images of birth, marriage, death and census records at www.ancestry.co.uk.
