Hannah Shevalier (the name has a variety of spellings) was born on 14 March 1745 in Pomfret, CT to Elias Shevalier, a Huguenot immigrant from Jersey, Channel Islands, and Mary Adams (1714-1770). Between 1747 and 1750, Elias moved the family to Amenia, Dutchess County, NY. The Shevaliers had ten known children. Hannah married Abel Ackley (abt 1746-1835) on 16 January 1766; her brother Elias, Jr. (1742-1768) had married Abel's sister Sarah (1749-?) on 17 October 1765. (Sarah's fate after Elias Jr's death is unknown.)

Hannah and Abel lived in the Amenia area until about 1775, welcoming Arthur (1766-1848) and Solomon (1774-1861) and possibly other children. The Ackleys moved to what is now White Creek, Washington County, NY in about 1775 where Lot West (1788-abt 1854) was born, and possibly other children. Hannah does not appear in the 1800 census, so likely died before that census was taken. Her father's will, dated 1805, notes that she is deceased and leaves a sum to her children.

On the Shevaliers, see: Harrison, E. J. (2011). Elias Shevalier, immigrant to Connecticut: his origin and immigration. New England Historical and Genealogical Register (NEHGR). 165: 173-181.
