James Scott Hanna was born in South Carolina on 1819 February 5, moving with his family to Alabama as a child. He married Martha A. E. Cole (1828-1877) in 1845 and moved to Arkansas, relocating from there to Chappell Hill, Texas, in 1850. In 1854 he moved to Robertson County and established his plantation along the Brazos River.
In addition to his plantation, Major Hanna (a title he apparently obtained in Alabama during Indian wars) was involved in several business ventures, including a partnership which contracted to extend the line of the Houston and Texas Central Railroad into Robertson County. He also owned a grocery and commission business in Calvert and Millican in partnership with his son-in-law John Orr from 1867 to 1872. In addition to their plantation home, Hanna and his family lived in Galveston, Bryan, and Millican at various times. Hanna remained active in his business affairs until his death on 1886 April 14.
Hanna and his wife had at least seven children, including Eudora Jane (1848-1855); Emma (1850-1870), who married John Orr in 1868; James Knox Polk (1852-1928), who was actively involved in his father's business activities; Willam David (1855-1856); Mollie W. (1863-1937), who married Eber S. Peters; Mattie (1863-1863); and Heywood Scott (1865-1887).
Eber S. Peters (1852-1910) was born in Detroit, Michigan, and moved to Corsicana, Texas, for health reasons. He married Mollie W. Hanna in 1879 and operated a hardware store in Corsicana until 1885, when he moved to Calvert. He also owned a Calvert newspaper and farmed a portion of the Hanna plantation. He and his wife had at least two children, Eber H. (1880-1950) and Beulah (1891-1974).

Series 1: James S. Hanna Papers |
|
The first, and most extensive, series consists of documents associated with James S. Hanna and his immediate family. This series has been further divided into business and personal documents. The business papers have been grouped according to the different business enterprises with which Hanna was involved. The most significant of these groups involves Hanna's plantation, his general involvement in farming activities and land transactions, and the operation of his household. Extensive records of accounts with businesses in Calvert and other area communities, Galveston, and Houston document the sale of cotton from the plantation and purchases made by Hanna, his employees, and family. Documents certifying the sale of slaves, livestock, and other items are included. Post Civil War contracts with sharecroppers and laborers include agreements with freedmen and Chinese immigrants. Some records of court cases and lawsuits are part of the collection, covering such issues as inheritance and payment of debts. |
|
Hanna was also a member of a partnership with Robert Calvert, William Davis, and members of the Hardy family, the business involved in extending the Houston and Texas Central Railroad northward in the 1850s and 1860s. Records of the partnership are grouped together and include accounts with various businesses providing supplies and shipping. Records of legal actions against the partners are also included, along with miscellaneous financial and legal documents. |
|
Hanna was also a partner in a grocery and commission business with son-in-law John Orr. A small number of financial and legal documents are part of the papers, including some details of the settlement between the two men when the partnership was dissolved. |
|
Hanna's family and personal documents include letters from family members and friends, containing family news from Arkansas and other parts of Texas. A number of letters from James Knox Polk Hanna to his parents are included, several written while he was attending Washington College in Lexington, Virginia. Similar letters from Mollie Hanna, written from Salem Female Academy in Salem, North Carolina, are part of the papers. Tuition records from the schools attended by the Hanna children are included, along with some report cards and printed material. |
