Jackson's "History of Littleton, New Hampshire" [115.] "Hannah Bingham Caswell was a suitable helpmate for a man like the Captain. She was a woman of superior mind, as all agree who knew her. Brave and self-sacrificing, the isolation of the wilderness had no terrors for her. When the exigencies of the war took from her successively her husband and sons, there was no repining on her part. She took up the work they had abandoned, and conducted it successfully until the close of the war. She died at the home of her youngest child, Mrs. Alice Caswell Pierce, in Brompton, P.Q[uebec]."
