Hanniel חַנִּיאֵל

Hanniel is mentioned briefly in 1Ch.7.39 as a descendant of Asher, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. He is listed in the genealogy of the tribe of Asher as the son of Ulla. The genealogies in 1 Chronicles provide a record of the families and clans within each of the Israelite tribes, highlighting their lineage and descent from the twelve sons of Israel (or 'Jacob'). The mention of Hanniel in this genealogy serves to demonstrate the continuity of Asher's lineage and to provide a historical record of his descendants.
