Excerpt from "A Porter Pedigree", page 106
Mrs. Hannah (Porter) Emerson is remembered as a very social, agreeable person; a noted cook; a pattern housekeeper; and a hospitable hostess. She had musical gifts, and was an excellent singer. She knew many old English ballads, and as she spun, she amused herself by singing them, and it was said that she could sing all day, and not repeat herself once. She was four times a widow, and finally made her home with her son, Hiram Preston, at whose house she died.
