Daniel Hankins was born to Roland and Mary Ann (Knox) Hankins on September 30, 1825, in Lawrence County Ohio. His paternal grandparents were Daniel and Elizabeth Hankins (unknown Native American, possibly Cherokee) according to the 1810-1830 US Census of Lawrence County Ohio, Upper Township. Little is known about Mary Ann Knox's family other than she was born in 1796 in Ohio, possibly Upper Township, and that she may have been of Native American descent.
Daniel's siblings were Nancy (Hankins) Sherman, Jackson Hankins, John Hankins, John Hankins, Lavinia (Hankins) Waddle, Lavinia Hankins, Sarah (Hankins) Ballard, Martha (Hankins) Stover, Ann "Anna" (Hankins) Everett, Mary Ann (Hankins) Wilkinson, Cassandra (Hankins) Church, Angelina (Hankins) Chappell.
Daniel married the love of his life Susannah Livengood in Paoli (Orange) Indiana on January 3, 1850. Daniel and Susanna's children included Joseph Nathaniel Hankins SR., William Jasper Hankins, Daniel Hankins, Mary Jane (Hankins) Regenold of Stanton Ohio, and Thomas and Charles Hankins.
Census records indicated Daniel and Susanna resided with his parents, Rowland and Mary (Knox) Hankins briefly after marriage. Canada census records the family as living in Canada on or about the 1870s. Reavil Hankins Jr. reported his grandfather William Jasper Hankins passed down a family story that "Daniel went to Chatham, Kent, Ontario Canada shortly before the Civil War to avoid war. He married Susanna Livengood in Orange County Indians and again in Canada. She is said to be 1/4th Choctaw. After a family fight in about 1900, all the children except William moved away. One went to Coke County Mo, at least one brother, Tommy, moved to Oklahoma, and one to Windsor MO. It was told in later years that Daniel went insane. I imagine today it would be have been called Alzheimer's Disease. He settled near Ware Chappel Cemetery in Laclede County Mo (squatters they called them back then.)"
Susanna "Susan" died February 18, 1905, and was buried in the Wair Chapel Cemetery aka Dowty Cemetery in Richland (Laclede) Missouri. It was said by Richard"Dub Moore, great-grandson of Joseph Hankins Sr that he, great-great grandsons Joseph Marion Hankins, Billy Earl Hankins, and Joseph Nathaniel Jr. drove to where Joseph Hankins outside Wair Chappel Cemetery and found that it was a depleted small house.
Daniel was 40 years old at the onset of the Civil War. Born in Ohio and Susanna from Indiana with family from the South would target the family for being from both sides. It is believed during this challenging time of our Great Nation that Daniel and Susanna chose to move their family which included teenage sons to Canada so they would not be subjected to the tragedies of a war they did not believe in nor attribute to the mortality of kinsmen.
Daniel and Susanna helped raise the children of Joseph Nathaniel Hankins' children after Joseph became a three-time widower. Daniel mentioned Joseph's daughters, Mary Hankins and Sarah (Hankins) Woodward in Last Will and Testament. US Census also depicts Mary and Sarah living with Daniel and Susanna.
Last Will and Testament of Daniel Hankins dated December 19, 1905, filed in Laclede county Missouri.

Per Reavil Hankins Jr. " …The Harper family came to Boonesboro with Daniel Boone. They are also connected to the Hanks family thru Sarah Harper Hankins, mother of orphaned Nancy Hanks, mother of Abe Lincoln".
Prior to 1919, the Hankins families resided near Richland (Pulaski) Missouri, and the Richland (Laclede) Missouri areas. In 1919, after an unknown "intense family disagreement" occurred, Joseph Nathaniel Hankins, Sr. and Joseph Nathaniel Hankins, Jr, and their children, which included Luvadah Earl Hankins, boarded a train and moved to Miami, Oklahoma. Later, as the children grew up, some moved to the Yale Oklahoma area. Daniel Jr moved to Russellville. When Daniel's parents Roland and Mary Ann (Knox) Hankins moved to Clinton county, MO, Daniel stayed in Ohio for about a year. Daniel moved to Orange County, Indiana where his uncle Thomas lived. Daniel met Susanna and married her in Indiana in 1850. They moved shortly after marriage with some of her family to Canada and stayed there until after the Civil War ended. Daniel and their family came to Pulaski County/Laclede County Missouri area by his aunt Sarah Ballard, then moved on the Gasconade River."
Luvadah Earl Hankins stated his father's family were "clannish" and traveled together for safety.
