| 5. | Hannah Burdine was born Abt 1747, Madison County, Virginia (daughter of Richard Burdine and Katharina Tanner); died 1819, Monroe County, Mississippi. Notes:
Hannah moved to Abbeville District, South Carolina prior to 1790....Mill's 1820 map of Abbeville District shows the Shotwell family settled near the Laurens County line.
By the 1800 census Hannah and her children were living in Pendleton District, South Carolina. Reuben, Nathaniel and Susannah were married by that time and living near their mother. The other three children were still living in the same house with their mother. Hannah and some of her children moved to the Alabama Territory prior to 1810. It is believed they remained in Madison County, Alabama for a brief time. Some of them moved on to what is now Lowndes County, Mississippi and others located in the present day Pickens and Lamar Counties in Alabama.
On 27 December 1819, Hannah made her will. She gave her residence as Marion County, Alabama. However, the will was entered into probate in Monroe County, Mississippi in 1825. The will and other records indicate Hannah was among the early settlers of this area when it was claimed by the State of Alabama. The original will is still in the estate papers of Monroe County.......
