Hannah is the daughter of Jacob Quimby (1796-1861) and Martha Orr Smith (1797-1868).
Hannah Quimby married John Harmon abt 1854 in New Hampshire. Their son Frank was born here. By Nov 1859, the family had moved to Medford, Steele, Minnesota. Here, 3 more children were born: Emma, John and Ella. John Sr. died in Feb 1865 from typhoid fever and malnutrition while fighting in the Civil War in Virginia.
In Sep 1868, Moses Hoit and Hannah had a daughter, Hattie. In 1870 U.S. Federal Census and 1875 Minnesota Census Hannah is shown in the census living with Moses Hoit sometimes spelled Hoyt, as his wife.
In Moses Hoit's Civil War pension file, he lists all 3 of his other wives and all of his children. He claims Hattie as his daughter, but does not list Hannah as his wife. In one entry, there is a note that indicates they were cohabitating. So it would appear they never married.
In 1880, she has left the Hoit household and is again living on her own as Hannah Harmon with her children Emma, Ella and John.
Before Jun 1889, Hattie Hoit had married Walter Adams and the family came to Washington State, settling in Kent and later Slaughter (now Auburn) King, Washington.
Oldest son Frank remained in Minnesota with his wife. By 1900, Hannah and the 3 youngest children had moved to Washington State and settled in New Whatcom (now Bellingham), Whatcom, Washington. It is unknown why the family move to this area. It is several hours away from where Hannah's daughter Hattie was living.
The daughters married and remained in Bellingham. Son John never married but remained here as well. All are buried here in Bayview Cemetery.
