Synopsis

A personal journey from faith to freedom in a 19th‑century Irish American story. This historical account follows a young woman’s early Catholic upbringing, her move to America, and the quiet courage she shows as she navigates faith, family, and community expectations.

This edition presents a clear, documentary-style narrative that frames Hannah Corcoran’s life against the backdrop of immigrant life, religious practice, and the quest for religious liberty. Readers will encounter a carefully told account that centers on personal resolve, family dynamics, and the broader questions of faith and autonomy in a turbulent era.

• A detailed look at early life in Ireland and the shaping of religious beliefs.
• The challenges and choices involved in emigration and adapting to a new country.
• Moments of decision around faith, baptism, and conscience in a Protestant context.
• A focus on personal resilience within family and community pressures.

Ideal for readers of 19th‑century biographies, religious history, and firsthand accounts of faith, liberty, and community life in early America.
