I am very much interested in your Hall connections. I too have a problem sitting long enough to get everything posted that I would like to. My Grandfather was born in Iowa. His dad Merriman Hall was born in Ohio in 1819, migrating to Iowa, Kansas and to Okla. I put an article on just before I saw yours. If you have anything on parents of Merriman Boramon Stevenson (M.B.S.) Hall I would appreciate it. My first cousins and I have search for years with nothing on parents of Merriman Hall, but in the 1900 census someone turned in that his parents were born in Maryland. Still searching. Glad to help anyone who is researching this line. God Bless you all, I pray your Arthritis gets better. My doctor says I don't have anymore than one of my age should. Surely is good to hear more on the Hall line again but in my line I have found no bad ones although there are good and bad everywhere if you look long enough.
