On the paternal side he is of English descent, a direct descendant of John Shaw, one of the leaders of the Plymouth colony, and of Hezekiah Hoar, an ensign in Miles Standish's company and one of the first settlers of Taunton, Massachusetts. Andrew T. Hanson was a son of Jonathan Hoar Hanson and Priscilla Shaw. On the maternal side Mr. Hanson is of Dutch descent, descended from Rualf Jansen, patentee of Schodack Landing. His mother, Anne .Iohnson, was a daughter of Robert Johnson and Katherine Douw Van Ness. James H. Hanson prepared for college at the Union Classical lnstitute, Scheuectady, in 1889 graduating from Union College with honor, the winner of the Warner prize, the first Allen prize, Blatchford second prize, special Latin prize and taking special honors in English.

In politics he is an independent Republican, but has taken no special interest in that field, never having held nor sought public office. Mr. Hanson is the author of the introduction to "The Minute Book of the Committee of Safety of Tryon County," which book was published by Dodd, Mead & Company in 1905.
