A letter from Arthur Rowsell, Hanna's son-in-law (married to her daughter, Blanche) in a letter to his son, Reginald, dated May 19, 1936, Corner Brook, says "Grand Ma Anstey is coming over with us for the summer and perhaps for always."
Circa 1929, while stationed on the mission in Englee, Reginald Rowsell server the charge of Hooping Harbour where he stayed with the family of Thomas and Priscilla (Short) Randall while there. He wrote in his diary that Priscilla's mother, Mary Wiseman, was a sister of Hannah Wiseman, his great-grandmother of Reginald Rowsell, on his mother's side.
