Continuing on with my surnames, it is time for my maternal grandmother's Hall line.

James Hall was born 1708.  He received land from his father in Rollinsford, New Hampshire in 1732.  He married Susannah Blackstone in 1743.  He and his brother, Samuel, left New Hampshire about 1750 and settled on the west side of  the Damariscotta Pond, in Lincoln County, Maine. 

Levi Hall was born 1758 in Jefferson, Lincoln, Maine.  He married Jane Jones 1 June 1781 in Nobleboro, Maine.  He served  as a private in the Massachusetts Line during the Revolutionary War.  At the time Maine was not a separate state but was instead part of Massachusetts.  He died 27 June 1847 in Washington, Knox, Maine.

  1. Hi ~ I'm a JOHN HALL descendant too. I probably have my generations confused. It seems there may be a generation missing in your chart? I have a Ralph in between the 1st and 2nd John. Here's the descents as I have it?
    1st John Hall b. @ 1618 (deacon) & Elizabeth
    2nd Ralph Hall b. @ 1650 & unknown
    3rd JOHN HALL b. 1673 & Esther Chesley
    4th James Hall b. 1710 & Susan Blackstone
    5th James & Susan had 2 sons: Levi & James Hall
    ---You descend from Levi & I descend from James.

    Have you ever seen the Ralph Hall family group?

    With Sincere Inquiry,
    Lynn

  2. Lynn,
    Thanks for the info. I have not worked on the Johns and Ralphs and .. in quite some time. Do you have some place(s) you can point me for up to date info? No, I have not heard of the Ralph Hall Family Group. Do they have an internet presence?

    Thanks cousin, Kathy

  3. Thank you for commenting on my blog. I am in awe of the completeness of your line of Halls. One of these days I will be able to accomplish this also. Thanks for sharing.
