Hannah A. Nichols, daughter of Col. Caleb Nichols and Amanda Parks Nichols, became an early pioneer to Kansas after her 1859 marriage to J.C.Redfield. Arriving in covered wagon in Humboldt, Allen county, she tended the jail while her sheriff husband was away. Local Indians occasionally caused fright, but her firmness in dealing with them caused no problems. Hannah later removed to Wichita when J.C. was appointed Land Commissioner, where she raised six children in those early, rustic pioneer days. After J.C.'s 1904 death, she returned to Ohio to live with a daughter until her own death three years later.

The photo above is from the original 1859 tintype photograph that was taken at the time of her marriage to J.C. Redfield in Ohio. The submitter has the original.
