Hannah L Ayers, b. abt 1813 in Long Branch, NJ, is the daughter of Zephaniah Ayers of Monmouth Co, NJ.

Hannah, who was residing in Bordentown, NJ at the time, married Oliver Noble Thacher on 13 Aug 1840 in the Broad Street United Methodist Church, Burlington, NJ.

In the 1860 census, Hannah and Oliver are living in Philadelphia with their 6 children: Oliver Weld Noble (age 17), Watson Freeman (age 16), Eunice Weld Russell (age 14), Albert Ayers (age 12), Peter Fritz (age 6), and Frederick Augustus Plummer (age 2). [Their other 2 children had died in infancy: Zachary Taylor and Joshua Sears.]

Sons Oliver and Albert both joined the Union's Marines during the Civil War and moved to California after the war; the other siblings stayed in Philadelphia. Unmarried brothers Peter and Fred, who were partners in a trunk manufacturing business, continued to live with their mother after father Oliver died.

Hannah and Oliver are buried together with son Frederick in Woodlands Cemetery, Philadelphia without a gravestone.

Sources: Totten's Thacher-Thatcher Genealogy, US Censuses, Woodlands Cemetery burial records, etc.

Note: John Totten's genealogy lists "Zephaniah Ayers of Monmouth Co" as her father; her death certificate has "Zacariah Ayres". I have found no Zacariah/Zachariah's of his time period in Monmouth County; there is a Zephaniah (Jr), though at present I have no documentation proving Hannah is his daughter.
