Johanna (went by Hanna or Hannah) Walk was the second of thirteen known children of Martin Walk Jr. (1737-1791) and Elisabeth (Liesel) Fiscus Walk (1750-1825),who married 22 Nov 1767 at Salem, Surry (then Stokes, then Forsyth) County, North Carolina. Hannah was born at and spent her early life in or near the Moravian community of Friedberg, then on the border of Stokes and Rowan Counties, North Carolina; now on the border of Forsyth and Davidson Counties, North Carolina.

Hannah married rather late in life for the first time, to Philip Mock (1752-1821) sometime past 1813 in North Carolina. Hannah and Philip lived in the Friedberg area. After Philip died in 1821 Hannah was a widow for three years before remarrying to the widower of her younger sister, Maria Magadalena Walk Gladfelter (1782-1822), John George Gladfelter Jr. (1780-1845) who was raising seven young children. Hannah and John married on 17 Feb 1824 at Rowan (now Davidson) County, North Carolina. The surname gradually changed from Gladfelter to Clodfelter. Hannah and John were caught up in the migration of Moravian families from then Stokes (now Forsyth) County, North Carolina to the Moravian community of West Salem, Edwards County, Illinois sometime in the late 1830s or early 1840s. Hannah had no children by either husband, but raised the seven children that John had by her younger sister.
