NOTE: This is the third time I have sent this email.....it has never shown up. Please accept my apologies if you have rec'd this more than once. Teresa Hall ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ -------------- While searching through some old information, I found information on Henry Hall (listed below). I just cannot remember who posted it or where I found it. If you know who posted it, or can add anything, I would really appreciate it. More specifically, looking for dates on the two Henry Hall's listed. Thanks, Teresa Hall My gggf was Houston Henry Hall of Emanuel Co GA. His father was Henry Hall of Burke Co GA who was born in NC. The following is information I compiled to use in trying to find his ancestors in NC. There is an Edwin in this family. Did your Edwin use any of the following names for his children? The 1820 Census of Burke County GA enumerates the James Hall household as follows: 1m aged 45+ (b before 1775) 2m aged 18-25 (b 1795 - 1802) 1m aged 16-18 (b 1803 - 1804) 1m aged 10-15 (b 1805 - 1810) 1m less than 10 (b 1810 - 1820) 1f aged 45+ (b before 1775) 1f aged 10-15 (b 1805 - 1820) Six persons are engaged in agriculture; there are no slaves. Neighbors preceding this household are... Polly Peterson, Abner Holliday, aged 45+, Simon Lowery, aged 45+ To the other side are... Joshua Odom, aged 26-45, Mathew Spain, aged 45+, Lwellan Spain, aged 26-45 In the Georgia Lottery of 1820 James Hall of Torrance Militia District in Burke County drew a lot in Early County Section 3, Lot 20. To participate in this lottery, James Hall would have had to qualify by one of the following methods a) be an inhabitant of Georgia since December 1815 and have a wife, a son less than 18, or an unmarried daughter, b) be a soldier of the Indian War and had residence in GA during or since military service, or c) be an indigent or invalid soldier in the Revolutionary Army or the War of 1812. Early County lots contained 250 acres and required an $18 grant fee. Whether or not James Hall claimed his lot has not been examined. In Acts of the General Assembly of the State of Georgia, 1830 we find on page 168 (relief): For the relief of Henry H Hall and Irwin Hall of Burke Co, in 1829, entered themselves as securities for Kinchen Hall for his appearance in the succeeding term of court. (Assented to 14 December 1830) This act suggests a family relationship between Henry H Hall and Irwin Hall with a third Kinchen Hall for whom there is no record in Burke County or elsewhere in Georgia. In 1830 James Hall has either died or left Burke County. In 1830 the 75th District of Burke County on page 127 and 128 are the following households: EDWIN Hall, aged 30-39(b 1790 - 1800); (Simeon Lowery, aged 60-69) Irwin Hall, aged 20-29 (b 1801 - 1810) (five households including J H T Kilpatrick) Henry H Hall, aged 20-29 (b 1801 - 1810) (Matthew Spain, aged 50-59) (more than two dozen households) Eli Hall, aged 20-29 (b 1801-1810) The presence of Simeon Lowery and Matthew Spain suggests the neighborhood is the same as the one in which James Hall resided in 1820; and the ages of the Hall men fall into the ranges of the young men in the household of James Hall. Still unaccounted for are a male born 1810-1820 an a girl born 1805-1810.

Also looking for information on the Henry H. Hall listed in the same census. Henry can be found again in 1840 Burke County. Thank you Teresa Hall
