General Notes: Husband - Reverend Thomas Pembiny Hanks

== Biography ==
In the 1850 Tennessee Census, Thomas Hanks is listed as a school teacher in McNairy county, part of, McNairy, Tennessee, United States
In the 1880s when the Baldknobbers were prevalent in Southwest Missouri (this was a local vigilante group similar to the Ku Klux Klan), 3 of them were arrested, tried and ordered to be hanged in Ozark, Missouri. After a visit from the Rev. Thomas Hanks or "Father Tom" as many called him, one of the baldknobbers repented of his sins, accepted Christ as his Savior, and requested to be baptized. Rev. Thomas Hanks baptized him in a bathtub in the Ozark city jail. The next day all 3 of thecriminals were hanged in the town square. This is quite an interesting bit of local history that our Hanks family took part in. "Father Tom" baptized quite a few believers in Bull Creek in Southwest Missouri during his long ministry as a Baptist preacher.
