Daughter of Jonathan Mason and and Patience (Mason) Mason.
Mother of 13 known children, the first 6 born in New Hampshire. William and Hannah moved back to Cumberland RI somewhere around 1800 where 7 more children were born. Several of the elder children also moved back to the area:
1. Lucina (Streeter) Snow (1783-1858) b 16 Oct 1783 Chesterfield, Cheshire, NH
2. Nahum Streeter (1787-1871) b 15 Sep 1787 Chesterfield, Cheshire, NH
3. Philadelphia (Streeter) Page Jeffers (1789-1882) b 23 Sep 1789 Chesterfield, Cheshire, NH
4. Orpha (Streeter) Page (1791-aft 1840 ) b 9 Oct 1791 Chesterfield, Cheshire, NH
LDS baptism 1840 Nauvoo Temple, Nauvoo, IL sponsor sister Lusina (Streeter) Snow
5. Hannah (Streeter) Wilkinson (1794-1889) b 15 Feb 1794 Chesterfield, Cheshire, NH
6. Lydia (Streeter) Morrison (1796-1875)
7. Fanny Streeter (1798-1820)
8. Belinda Mason (Streeter) Arnold (1800-1883)
9. Minerva Streeter (1802-1820)
10. George Mason Streeter (1805-1870)
11. Nancy Streeter (1805-1820)
12. Alexander S Streeter (1807-1877)
13. Van Rensselaer Streeter (1810-abt 1847)
3rd child Philadelphia (Streeter) Page Jeffers, twice widowed, lived on the family homestead with her widowed mother Hannah in 1850 and remained there after Hannah's death in 1854.
Phila did not leave the homestead until after 1870, further confirming the very strong probability her mother rests here with her father and sisters Fanny, Minerva, and Nancy.
Due to the serious damage in CU033 from various human factors including bulldozers running right over gravestones in this portion of this cemetery shattering them to pieces, Hannah's stone remains unlocated, but there is little to no doubt this is her final resting place, next to her husband and near her children and Jeffers grandchildren who died young.
Addition of this memorial is upon request of the BVHS-backed group recovering this cemetery with whom many of us work to fully research the location, the families and the finds and to give honor to our ancestors whose resting place has been disturbed and now thankfully put back the way it was the best they can.
