Hi. I'm not related to this family.It appears Daniel was in the civil war:

Civil War Pension Index: General Index to Pension Files, 1861-1934 about Daniel D. Hanson

State Filed:        Connecticut
Surgeon 34 US C Inf.
Maj 34 US E Inf

I don't know if you have his pension file, but it is well worth the effort to secure:Photocopies of case file contents can be requested by submitting NATF Form 85 to the National Archives and Records Administration, Attn: NWCTB, 700 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW, Washington, D.C. 20408-0001. You can request NATF Form 85 by submitting your name and postal address, the form number (NATF Form 85), and the number of forms you require (limit 6 per request) to [email protected] Pension case files can now be ordered online as well. Visit the National Archives’ website for details.

By 1880, Cornelia B. was a widow:

Cornelia Hanson        16 -dau- b. 1864 Conn

Living next door is Spencer Seymour, age 50 b. 1830 Conn and his wife Harriet & children, presumably the same Spencer (brother?) as in 1860.Unfortunately I can't find Daniel in the 1850 Census, nor can I find the family in 1870.Sorry I can't find more on the Hanson line.

Hope this helps. Annie
