Hi Amy,
Well, its nice to see someone so young interested in genealogy. Is your HANNAN/HANAN family Irish? Do you know what year they arrived in the USA?...and what occupation(s)they had? Do you know the Christian names of your great or great-great grandparents HANNAN/HANAN? I would be interested in knowing about them.
All I know about my HANNAN/HANAN family is that my g-g-grandfather, John HANNAN/HANAN, & g-g-grandmother arrived in the USA around 1840's from Ireland.I am told he was one of the founders of the HANAN Shoe Company in NY. Their daughter is my g-grandma, Mary Ellen, who was born around 1847 in Manhattan, NY, where she grew up. I do not know if Mary had any brothers or sisters. Also, I do not know of any other family members such as aunts and uncles, etc., but I hope to find out more through researching the family.
Good luck to you in your researching!
Sincerely,
