  • Name Hannah CORKUM 
    Birth 28 Sep 1819  Chester, Lunenburg, NS Find all individuals with events at this location  [1, 2
    • The Chester Township book places her birth in Sep 1821, but also places here brother Benjamin's birth in Jan 1822, which is essentially impossible. Given that there is basically no gap between Benjamin and Clarissa but a four year gap between Catherine and Benjamin, it seems likely that Hannah was born before 1821. Her age at death in 1879 is states as 61, which would place her birth in 1817, which also seems unlikely. So the 1819 date hat is found in Edmund West's Gene Pool Database is used here.
