Hannah...Full of Grace
The 1963 bay mare, Hannah, was a Fabah daughter out of Fasera, a Fa-Serr
daughter out of Fa-Abba (Fabah's full sister). The name Hannah, is based on the Hebrew name, Channah, meaning "favour" or "grace". In the Bible, Hannah was the mother of the prophet, Samuel. It was the Puritans who popularized the use of the name in the 17th century. Hannah was
representative of the cross that the Babson Farm practiced, top-crossing
Fabah on the Fa-Serr daughters. The caption in the photo above says that Hannah's 1968
filly "Janie" is an *Ibn Moniet El Nefous daughter but she was not. She
was an Ansata Abbas Pasha daughter, who was bred to *Ibn Moniet El
Nefous and produced the daughters: AN Molly Moniet in 1972 and Janidah
in 1977. Hannah was primarily outcrossed to new Egyptian blood but she
was bred to Ibn-Fa-Serr and produced the straight Babson Egyptian mare,
Bint Hannah, who was then bred back to Fabah and foaled the chestnut
stallion, Bah Dan in 1973.
