Hannah was the wife of Andrew McKinney and together they had 8 children: Susan, Dallas, Ali, James, Ransom "Doc",
Mortimer, John, and Perry.
Hannah was born in Tennessee to Ali Smith and Mary Glenn and married Andrew on Jan. 27, 1842.
She was my maternal gr-gr-grandmother.
At the home of her son, P. O. McKinney, of Samoa, Mrs. Hannah McKinney, more familiarly known as "Aunt Hannah", sank peacefully to rest in her last sleep, on Monday morning at 1:30. Aunt Hannah had been quite feeble for a long time and her death, while sad, was not unexpected. About a month ago she was taken with what proved to be her last illness, for despite everything love or science could suggest, the messenger came and bore her spirit to its reward.
Deceased was born in Campbell county, East Tennessee, Dec 20, 1822; died April 7, 1902; making her at time of death about 80 years of age. Her maiden name was Smith, and while quite young immigrated with her parents to Missouri, where she met and married Andrew McKinney in January, 1840, and from that union eight children resulted, seven sons and one daughter. She was preceded to the better world by her husband, Andrew McKinney, March 28, 1874, and two sons, Dallas, December 26, 1880, and John, Aug. 3, 1881.
Her sons that survive her are: Perry, Ransom, James, Lee, and Aly McKinney, and daughter, Susie McKinney; all except two sons, James and Lee, were at the bedside of their beloved mother during her last hours. The sad loss to them is as taking away of one's best and truest friend, for Aunt Hannah had ever been a fond and indulgent mother. Deceased professed a faith in Christ at an early age and was a consistent, conscientious member of the Ozark Baptist church, in which she lived until our Heavenly Father in His unerring wisdom has removed from the walks of men and from the membership of our church, one of our purest and most devoted members. Her piety was not of ostentatious kind, but deep and abiding as the ever flowing river, dispensing its blessings to all surrounding nature. She was a model mother, a faithful friend and a true neighbor, but we feel like our loss is her eternal gain. The last earthly remains were tenderly laid to rest in the Ozark cemetery in the presence of a large circle of sorrowing relatives and friends. May God bless and comfort the bereaved ones in their sad bereavemtn.
Our dear mother; beloved one,
To that home thou hast gone;
Life's evening, her work all finished;
And Heaven, fair Heaven begun
She fought a good fight and 'tis finished
She gained a great victory over sin
She heard the welcome applaudit:
"Well done, come now, enter in."
We miss her at home at the fireside,
Her place no other can fill,
There's a vacant seat in the church house,
And a quiet mound on the hill;
There was a shout, all Heaven resounded,
Our Savior had called her to come,
So she crossed the dark river and landed
In Heaven, our beautiful home.
-- A FRIEND
