Sue, excellent suggestion to look for Hannah in the household of one of her married daughters (which I have not done)The 1820 Lawrence Co. census shows an Aaron Savell, 16-26 (b 1794-1804); a female 10-26 (b1794-1810).In 1820, our Aaron would have been ten years old and even if Aaron (Sr.) was 26, both he and the female listedwould have had to have been 16 years old (highly unlikely) when our Aaron was born.Then, too, the Aaron who died in Hinds Co. in 1832 left two minor orphns, William and Willoby who both were appointed guardians.I believe the two went on to become the progenitors of the Neshoba Co. MS Savells who, although I have seen a number of their records, no connection to our Hannah Savell.
I am presuming Hannah died in 1831/32 because there is an indenture between her and her children and they are all listed by name.No mention of a husband and remember, there was no mention of a husband when Hannah Savell bought land in 1828 in Hinds Co. (she must have had some money of her own).
become the progenitors of the Neshoba Co., MS Savells.
In 1819 Aaron and John Savell were still on the tax list of Laurence Co., MS and in 1820, 21, 22, Aaron was now on the tax list in Hinds Co., MS but no "John".
Is it possible that John Savell is now deceased?If so, there could be a possibility that he was the husband of our Hannah Savell???
I can't recall when Hinds Co. was formed but "1820" sticks in my mind--will have to double check.
They always say "two heads are better than one"--thanks for sharing your info and thoughts!P.S.Could we suggest that John Savell died 1819-1828, but what happened to his land?I am sure there is a record "somewhere".
