Hi Delores, Can't say what happened to Hugh Hanks, but his father was Thomas Hanks, (son of Joshua and Ruth Bryant Hanks) born 28OCT1797 in North Carolina; died 13FEB1840 in Grayson/Carroll and is buried in the old Quaker Cemetery. His mother was Jane Moore, also from NC but I can't identify her parents. She was born in 1799 and died in 1852 and is also buried in the Quaker Cemetery. They were married in Surry Co, NC in 1819. I have 8 children listed for them. best regards, Ron Hall
