Hi, List: Can anyone provide me with a definitive source for the correct parentage of Hatevil Hall? Wentworth, in Volume I pps 479-480 of his "The Wentworth Genealogy" says his parent was Deacon John Hall ((8) John in GDMNH.) Noyes et al, on p. 299 say he was the son of (10) John (8) and Abigail Roberts, and therefore the grandson of Deacon (8) John. If Wentworth is correct, Hatevil was (10) John (8)'s brother, not his son. Thank you for your help. 'Gene

I agree! We found a box of pictures in the attic of my grandparents place. Pictures going back before 1880. A few were labeled, enabling us to recognize people in a few others, but most names are probably lost forever. These pictures could be priceless family treasures, if we could prove which family!

Same thing happened with my grandmother who died 17 years ago. Now I find myself coping these pictures and sending them to all kinds of people trying to identify them. Sure wish the name had been on them. Barbara

Hi, I am looking to find information about a HALL family from PA. They possibly attended a German Reformed Lutheran Church. Not sure where in PA, possibly near Pgh. Would like to find parents for John (W)? HALL born 1803. John moved to Stark Co. OH by 1823. Then later to Summit Co. OH. Any one out there with possible links? Any leads no matter how small, please contact me. Thanks, Gayle Winslow thewins@prodigy.net

I wanted to let you know that I have my family tree on the web now. I have quite a few Hall's, mostly from Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri and some Oklahoma. http://www4.50megs.com/lspencer/ Laura

Greetings from Down Under, or should I say "G'day Mate". I am a new lister on the Hall List and I have noted that all of the requests have been from American Halls. Are there any listers from Australia or UK? I have traced my line of Halls back through the Australian records to mid 1800's. My ancestor, Maurice Hall was born in Shoreham, England C1837 to a Richard Hall (occupation baker) and Caroline Walker. I do not know if this is Shoreham in Kent or in Sussex. Maurice's Australian Marriage Certificate, dated 8 January 1887 stated that he was a widower (from 1885) with five living children. I have not been able to find any more information so I was hoping that there may be some listers in south east England, who may access to records from this region, and would be prepared to do a look-up for me. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Be at ONE with the Universe! Brian Hall

Melissa, In response to you letter on the Hall List. I do not recall Donna's comments and could not find them in the Hall list I have saved. Also, what are IGI things? We do have a William Hall that married an Ann Bott circa 1742. William's will is recorded in Amelia County, VA WB 3/199, 1783. Ann's will is in Amelia County WB 4/123, 1787. From their wills we have the names of three children; Thomas (married Fanny Williams), Ann (married John Archer), Mary Israel (married John Willson). We do not have copies of these wills. This is from information we gathered some years ago and sorry, but we did not document like we should have. We would be interested in any information you have on these people. By the way, two of the children, Thomas (married Fanny Williams) and Ann (married John Archer) are my husbands ancestors! Appreciate any information we can receive.

Please forward to any list I haven't reached yet! -Carol ROCKEFELLER LIBRARY UNVEILS NEW WEBSITE The John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Library has unveiled a greatly expanded section on the Colonial Williamsburg website (http://www.history.org), offering individuals interested in the Colonial Chesapeake the opportunity to search the library's vast collections. New features include PATRIOT, the Rockefeller Library's online catalog listing the 68,000 titles in the Library, and guides to manuscript, microfilm, selected photograph and other research collections, such as the Shirley Plantation Collection of over 18,000 manuscript items. Previously, individuals had to physically visit the library or be connected to an internal network to access these resources. "We have electronically opened the doors to our major collections by adding finding aids and the Library catalog to the World Wide Web," says Public Services Librarian Juleigh Clark. "Now, when researchers come to the Library, they will have a better idea of what we own, and we can serve them more efficiently." Other features on the website include a virtual exhibit of some of the treasures from the Rockefeller Library's rare book and manuscript collections and special indexes to articles in The Colonial Williamsburg Journal and The Colonial Williamsburg Interpreter. Of special interest is an index to the several hundred research reports written at Colonial Williamsburg over the last sixty years. Early American History Research Reports are distinguished for the significant amount of primary source material in them and for their time and place specificity: eighteenth-century Virginia.
