CHAPTER X.

SECOND GENERATION. HISTORY OF HANNAH MORISON (CLENDENNIN), DAUGHTER OF JOHN MORISON, WHO DIED IN 1736, AND OF HER DESCENDANTS.

SECOND GENERATION. - HANNAH MORISON.

2442. Hannah (Clendennin) [7] (John Morison1); married William Clendennin, son of Archibald Clendennin, one of the first settlers of Londonderry in 1719. They lived in Londonderry (now Derry), near the Windham line, on the place now occupied by a Mr. Shields, and only a few rods from the "Londonderry Turnpike." Her granddaughter, Mrs. Steele, of Windham, in 1880 (and who had reached the advanced age of ninety-two yrs.), said: "I remember my grandmother, Hannah-Morison Clendennin, very well. She was active and vigorous for an old lady. I saw her sit at the window and spin not more than a year before her death. She used frequently to call on her neighbors. She was quite old, and died in 1801. I was then thirteen years of age, and attended my grandmother's funeral. Two of her brothers, Samuel and Joseph, were present, though Samuel was infirm at the time." She is the only one living who can look backward over seventy-nine vanished years and who has known and conversed with three of the early settlers of Londonderry, N. H.

She was born in 1788, and now (1880) her mind is clear and strong, and events which happened during the greater part of her life are remembered distinctly. Particularly clear are her remembrances of the events of her childhood, and as late as 75 yrs. and even 50 yrs. ago. She is the only person living in this "wide, wide world" who ever saw, knew, or conversed with the children of the first John Morison who died in what is now "Derry Dock," in 1736. She knew three of his children, Hannah, Samuel, and Joseph. These were the children of John Morison by his second wife, Janet Steele. Mrs. Steele is a mother in Israel; she has always taken a deep interest in her friends and relatives in their widely separated and diverging lives; she possesses a warm, kind heart; at the present time (1880) is active and vigorous, feeling but little the infirmities of her great age.
