Carol,

I found Hannah's will interesting myself. Then I found, Abe and Hannah
purchased the property from Hannah's parents, John and Helene/Eleanor after
the death of her father John Swallow. Helene, went to live with dau. Mary
and husband Christopher Snyder.

I have the will of Hannah, and will contact you about the death cert. for
Abraham.

Thanks,
Jan
