To the author of the above letter GRANNEEM who is researching for parents of William Hall. Your Hall's took the same route as mine. My roadblock is for the parents of my Gr. Grandfather Merriman Boramon Stevenson (M.B.S.) Hall. He was born in Knox County, OH Dec. 27, 1819. Nothing on obit or anything gives names of parents. On one census record it states parents born in Maryland. Any suggestions would be welcome. I know I have posted before but maybe we have new people on line. My Hall's have William Hall, Thomas Robert Hall and more. Would like to connect and find more lost cousins. My Thomas Robert Hall's dad left Ohio after his first wife died after giving him two living children. He was first married in Knox County, Ohio to Mary Ann Ross in abt. 1843. Have records to that effect. Not sure when she died but on obit, it states after the death of Mary Ann Ross, he removed to Iowa where he married Alcinda Hedges, my Gr Grandmother, mother of my Grandpa Thomas Robert (T.T.) Hall. Have many generations of Hedges, and Mary Ann Ross parents and Grandparents were Ross and McNitt and other. Any matchup. I always share what I have. Have found a couple of cousins on this list. Hope to hear from them again. God Bless you all and good luck in your search. Barbara Bay Dewing in MO, from Oklahoma
