Children of Hannah Derby Sackett and Rev Robert Wilson Hume


1188. Hannah D. Sackett, daughter of (521) Edward and Sally Eldridge Sacket, was married to Edward Hume. A short time after their marriage, Edward and Hannah D. Sacket entered the foreign mission field, going to India. There they labored faithfully and not without results for a number of years, when Mr. Hume became broken in health and they reluctantly took passage for a return voyage to their native land. Mr. Hume died on the voyage and was buried at sea, leaving Mrs. Hume to continue her homeward journey with their five young children, two of whom, on reaching maturity, returned to India and took up the work their parents had laid down.
