The Hall clan in Ohio is mammoth! Ashtabula Co.is a hotbed! Especially Pierpont twnship. Does any one have the genealogy of this group of Hall people? I'm searching Thomas Hall, b. about 1825 and his family and descendants. His Father was also Thomas Hall, born in VERMONT, wife unknown, b. Vt. Thomas the younger's first wife was Susan Woodward through whom he had a family (I don't have my Hall gen. at hand, but do remember Corwin and John). Through his second marriage to Rosetta MORGAN b. 1838, Crawford Co., IND.(fa. Harbin MORGAN, mo. Susannah VAN WINKLE) he had my great grandfather, Edwin B. Hall, b. 1862, Alton, Ind. (whom I grew up next door to at Elbow Lake, Minn.). Edwin mar. Isabelle DEUCHARS, fa. David DEUCHARS of Scotland, and mo. Hannah Augusta WILKES b. Ind. They moved to So. Dak., 1890 where his half-brothers,Corwin and John, were already located. Edwin's HALL's siblings included: (all born Alton, Crawford Co., Ind.) Sarah Anna, b. 1863, mar.
