Hannah was the mother of the prophet Samuel.

She was well known because of how she handled her situation. She was married, but unable to conceive a child. She went to God and prayed and implored and prayed some more. She was very sincere in pouring out her heart and praying for a child.

She made a promise in 1 Samuel 1:11 that if she bore a son, that she would dedicate him to be a true servant of Jehovah God.

1 Samuel 1:11And she made this vow: "O Jehovah of armies, if you look upon the affliction of your servant and remember me and you do not forget your servant and give to your servant a male child, I will give him to Jehovah all the days of his life, and no razor will touch his head." NWT

And, true to her word, after he was weaned she took him to the temple and placed him in the care of the priests. She visited him every year and brought him a new sleeveless coat.

After that, Jehovah also blessed her with more children.

1 Samuel 2:21"Jehovah turned his attention to Hanʹnah, so that she could conceive; and she gave birth to three more sons and two daughters. And the boy Samuel continued growing up before Jehovah" NWT

She prayed intensely for childbirth; and when God granted her prayer, she sang a song of praise to Him (1 Samuel ch.1-2).

When did Hannah die in the Bible?

If you mean the Hannah of the Bible mentioned in the first chapter of 1 Samuel, we are not actually told when she was born, the main them of her story is also that of her son, Samuel. If you have a Bible (if not you can check the link and search 1 Samuel chapter 1 and find the story of Hannah there) the there should be a contents page in the front, find the book of one Samuel (there should be a page number provided), it is in the old testament and Hannah's story is the first chapter. It is truly inspirational and well worth reading!Answer:According to traditional chronology, she was born around 950 BCE.
