Daughter of Henry Snively and Mary Heavenor
Married Parley Parker Pratt, 2 Nov 1844, Nauvoo, Hancock, Illinois
Children - Henriette Pratt, Lucy Pratt, Alma Pratt
Hannahette was born in Virginia, in 1812. Hannahette was converted to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints by Erastus Snow. With money from their father's estate, Hannahette and her sister Susan built a cozy brick home in Nauvoo. When cholera broke out this home became a veritable hospital for all who were in need of assistance.
Hannahette married Parley P. Pratt on November 2, 1844, in the Nauvoo Temple by Brigham Young.
She was tall, of fair complexion, deep blue eyes, and a sunny disposition, serene and humble demeanor. Her home was a haven of rest for many.
She went through the winter of 1846-1847 at Winter Quarters, arriving in Salt Lake Valley with her infant son on September 25, 1847. She was the first white woman to settle in the Big Field. She built a two-story adobe home. Indians would often come to the adobe house. In later years she made her home with family at 16 South and 4th West. Her room became the most interesting room in the house, especially at Christmas time. Here they told stories, sang, and played games while Hannahette sewed. She was active and energetic to the end. She wasn't a person to brood or complain.
Hannahette passed away on February 21, 1898, in her eighty-fifth year.
