Robert:

I just checked out the cd for any information and found this on your Hannah
Speakman

"Speakman, Hannah
Born:9 April 1837 in Leigh, Liverpool, Lancashire, England"

That is all that I could find on her.

If there is this date listed in the birth registers in Lancashire, you will
be able to find her parents listed there as well. I am not sure exactly
what date the parish registers stopped being kept and the state took over
the job of recording the births. I think it might be very, very close to
this date, but either way you should be able to find the parents of Hannah.

Good luck on this.

Terri

Co. (Gourley family), but I have reached dead ends in my attempts to link
her to my Speakman family, the first of which to come from England was
William Speakman in 1853. Neither Ancestral File, nor IGI, nor any of the
handcart books I have, have info on Hannah that I could find.
