Hannah Bingeman, the fifth child and first daughter of Samuel Bingeman and Sarah Wentzel, was born 8 November 1837 in Berks County, Pennsylvania. She was baptized 14 May 1838 in Trinity Lutheran Church, Reading, Berks County, Pennsylvania. In 1860, probably due to the death of her mother, Hannah worked as a servant in the household of Henry and Eliza Hofmeister.
Hannah married Daniel Pott on 1 December 1861 in Berks County, Pennsylvania. Hannah and Daniel had seven children: Samuel, 1861-1930; George B., 1864-1931; Ellen, 1867-1871; Daniel B., 1870-1941; Sarah Elizabeth, 1872-1884; Charles B., 1874-1941; Irvin B, 1878-1961.
Hannah, suffering from the effects of dropsy, died while sitting in her rocking chair on 10 December 1906. Daniel died 3 April 1926. Both were buried in Spies Church cemetery, Alsace Township, Berks County, Pennsylvania.
