According to family lore, Hannah is said to be a daughter of a William and Mary Morgan and a sister to Permelia Morgan Hart. The William Morgan I have linked as her father might instead be an older brother. In my opinion as I feel they are related.
Hannah married, about 1797, in Montgomery (now Grayson) County, Virginia or Ashe County, North Carolina, Isaac Sexton born about 1780 to William Sexton and Leah free.
1850, Hannah Sexon (Sexton) age 65, born NC is listed by herself in household 173, Whitley County, Kentucky. Listed as cannot read or write.

1860, Laurel County, Kentucky, Hannah was living with her Son-in-law Peter and daughter Nancy Minerva Hart. She is said to have died in Laurel County, Kentucky after the 1860 census.
Her grave site is unknown at this time but is likely in Laurel or Whitley County, Kentucky.
