| Notes |
- The ancestors of John Hanna of Guilford County immigrated to Pennsylvania from Scotland. John?s father moved to Virginia from Pennsylvania, and John Hanna continued the tradition by migrating on to North Carolina.
Though no proof has been found, it is believed that he married Martha Doak of Guilford County. John got a Granville grant for 700 acres on Beaver Creek. Some of this land was sold to their son Robert, but John and Martha still lived on the land as late as 1776 [Guilford Co. Deeds, 1:170, 419; 4:17].
John Hanna's residence was given as Surry County, North Carolina, when he bought two tracts of land from William Porter in June, 1778. This property was on Stewart Creek on the Tararat River in Surry County. John and Martha sold one of these tracts to their son John Doak Hanna on the same day [Surry Co. Deeds, A:254-7]. On the 15th of April 1793, John sold all his remaining land on the Tarrarat River to the same son [Surry Co. Deeds, F:96-8].
The same date is on John Hanna's Surry County will, brought in for probate less than a year later during the February court term, 1794 [Surry Co. Wills, A:13]. John's will names:
wife (unnamed)
Sons: Robert, John Doak, Roddy, James (to have half of my Cumberland land), William (to have half of my Cumberland land), Samuel
daughters: Mary Doak, Martha Thomas, Margaret Doak

| Notes |
- Reasoning of estimated dates for this family:
Hanna kids:
will listed an order of males, then females
Robert first, and since he was on tax list by 1768, he had to be over 21 - so born bef 1747.
Age given for James, he's listed as 5th son.
going from his given b.d., increments of 2 yrs
to preceding named sons puts John bef 1756
leaving a 10 yr gap between 1st, Robert and 2nd John
Put girls in that 10 yr gap
means oldest bef 1747; so m c 1746
Martha and John Hanna b abt 1726 - Martha could be 4 yrs younger, marrying at 16, but that puts her 1726-1730
if 1726, last child b at her age 41
