    Notes 
    • There is no known proof as to who the Hannah HARNISH is that marries Joseph P. Williams in 1833. She is named as Mrs. Hannah HARNISH in an Acadian Recorder article, which almost certainly means that she is the widow of a man named HARNISH. The only known Mrs. Hannah HARNISH before 1871 is Hannah Catherine (Dorey) HARNISH. Her husband's date of death is not known; however, their last child is born 1830, which fits. So, although she is not proven to be the right Hannah, the circumstantial evidence seems strong. [Bob H]
