"Robert Eli Edry Calhoun Hanna was born in Greenbrier county, (now) West Virginia, July 6, 1861. Robert Calhoun Hanna was his father, and his mother is Catherine Elizabeth [Ott] Hanna. His father was shot in the arm by Confederate soldiers and died from the effects, and in the same year, with his mother, the subject of this sketch went to Kentucky. In 1865, they came to Lincoln county, which has since been their home. The father of Mr. Hanna was of Irish descent, and his mother was of dutch ancestry. He is combining the labors of farm life with the profession of teaching, and may be addressed at Griffithsville, Lincoln County, WV."
