| Notes |
- Mcrae lists her name as Hannah Derby (Berg) Sackett and states they were married in Hamden, MA
The best known (to me and many cousins) family story of her trip to India is the story of Hannah's stay in Zanzibar. Robert and Hannah were invited to the Sultan's palace. In the course of the evening, the Sultan asked if they could tell him what was the nature of a "strange box" which had been given him by Queen Victoria. It was a piano. Hannah played the piano for the Sultan -- for the entire evening at his insistence. At the end of the evening the Sultan brought out six women and offered to trade them to Robert for Hannah. He declined the offer. Hannah and Robert worked at the American Marathi Mission in Byculla, Bombay.
