We cannot seem to connect either of them with their ancestors. Is there a scandal involved? Were they recent immigrants? Perhaps these HALLs were Loyalists? Does anyone know this line? Best regards, Jim Patrick tambaymar@aol.com Searching Hall (PA>KY>IN), Patrick, Banta, Fallis, Abel, Pherigo, Shumway (IN), Brown (NY>OH>IN), Brown (VA>TN>IL), Casteel (TN), and many, many more. >> I have a John Valentine Hall, who has been referred to as Valentine Hall in some references. He is about the right era to have been Eleanor Roosevelt's grandfather. Look below and see what you think. Below is ALL the info I have on him (other than he was born in GA) I don't know where he lived, when or where he died, or if he ever married. He is way down near the bottom, in bold blue type.
