    Notes:

    From Ontario County Journal 10 April 1874

    Obituary - Died at the residence of her son, Benjamin F. Hicks, in Bristol, on the morning of the 2nd , inst. Mrs. Hannah Cornell, wife of the late Aaron Hicks, Esq., aged 79 years, 2 months and 28 days. Mrs. Hicks was a native of Dighton, Bristol Co., Mass., and came to the Genesee Country with her parents at an early age. She was married to Mr. Hicks January 1st, 1812, and lived with him in the same neighborhood, and most of the time on the same farm, for more than sixty years. She was the mother of ten children, nine of whom, one daughter and eight sons lived to adult age, and seven of the sons are still living and were present at her funeral. She was a woman of strong mind and her influence was on the side of right. In the days of the anti-slavery struggle she sympathized deeply with the friends of that cause, and when the ranks of the advocates of Temperance were thin indeed, her voice was ever raised in favor of total abstinence from everything that can intoxicate, and the poor and oppressed always found in her a sympathizer, and so far as her means would allow, a helper. Her funeral was attended at the Universalist Church on Sunday, the 5th inst., the services being conducted by the Pastor, Rev. Henry Jewell, assisted by Rev. Henry Shepard, of Orono, Maine.

    Hannah married Aaron Hicks on 1 Jan 1812 in Ontario County, New York. Aaron was born on 12 Dec 1788 in Rehoboth, Bristol County, Massachusetts; died on 9 Apr 1872 in Bristol, Ontario County, New York; was buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Bristol, Ontario County, New York.

    Notes:

    Deputy Sheriff S. C. Hicks (brother of our next Senator) seems to be doing a lively business in his official capacity; his extensive experience, and good sound judgement stamps him as one of the shrewdest detectives in the county. Evil doers should learn better than to undertake to escape his grasp.
    (Th Naples Record, November 8, 1877)
