The only person still living is Emmaline Newberry. She lives in Quincy and is 95 years old. There were seven children and except for one they all lived long lives and died in the same order they were born. Emmaline was born last and still living.

Hannatown is just over the FL - GA line so Hannatown, GA children went to school with Mt Zion children (Glory Community). Then the FL parents got upset about paying the bill without Hannatown parents help. So Hannatown had to build their own school. I don't think any of Hannatown children are living today.
