Hannah was the daughter of Andrew Baird/Beard and his wife Hannah whose maiden name was Green. Several publications state that Hannah Cox died in Macon Co MO in 1852 but no gravestone has been located to the best of my knowledge. Hannah Cox, 73 years old, appears on the 1850 Macon County MO census living in the household of her son, Francis Marion Cox.
Here is an excerpt from an article that appeared in "Ansearchin' News" in the winter of 1972:
Moses Cox, son of Moses and Sarah, married in Rowan County, NC, July 13, 1799, Hannah Beard who was born July 15, 1778, daughter of Andrew Beard (proven Revolutionary War Patriot), and his wife Hannah. Andrew Beard was born Jan. 28, 1737 and died in 1785. His wife was born May 5, 1746 and died Apr. 2, 1811. Both are buried in the church cemetery of Jersey Baptist Church out from Lexington, North Carolina. Listed in the records of Jersey Baptist Church, established 1784, are Moses and Hannah Cox, members in 1802. In 1804, they were granted letters of dismissal. We next find them along with other Cox, Beard and Green families in Barren County, Kentucky.
In the 1810 and 1820 census records of Barren County, KY, there are both Moses Cox the Little and Moses Cox the Big. Court records show that Moses Cox the Little wrote his will on March 16, 1826, naming his wife Hannah and three eldest sons, Levi, Moses and John C. Cox; the will was probated in April 1826. Land sold Oct. 1847 gives the names of the legatees: Hannah Cox, widow, Francis Marion Cox, Martha Cox Armstrong, Levi Cox and wife Lucy, Leroy Wine and wife Louisa of Missouri, Moses Cox of Gibson County, Tenn, Benjamin Myers and wife Sarah and John C. Cox of Tipton County, Tenn. Lewis Allen Cox was not named in this instrument; however, he was named among the children in a later document.
