    1. [ALCHEROK] Re: Halls
    2. Marlene Clark
    3. Really, I am looking for almost anything on Wm. Hall. He was born 1793 and one daughter, Margaret, on the 1910 Census, said he was from Ireland and that she was born in Cherokee Co., AL in 1820. She had an Indian mother by the name of Susan ??? They "may" have later moved to Sumter Co. and he "may" be the one that claimed to be a "mixedblood" in order to remain in AL after the 1830 Treaty with the Indians. I have no proof of anything beyond approx. 1838 when he was in Skullyville, OK when the Indians moved West. I do not know if he was from Ireland or if he was part Indian. I found it much easier to find my James Smith in the 1700's than Wm. Hall in the 1800's. One has no idea as to many Wm. Halls received land in AL in the same time frame - much less how many entered this country about the same time. I have tried the LDS records and every other site I could find. I do believe there are more Halls than Smiths in this country. I have seen some information written on this family, but entirely without proof. I am not familiar with that part of AL as to what records there may be. If anyone knows of a good researcher in that area, I would love to have their name. They do not have to be a "professional" genealogist. I would love to know the grandparents of Margaret Hall or anything about the family. I have spent much time in libraries and court houses, but cannot do much of that any more. Marlene
