Thanks, Paul, for the quick reply. Benjamin and Anna (AUSTIN) HALL were my great grandparents. John Ruben HALL was born on 7 April 1883 in Margaretta, Erie County, Ohio. There were other siblings as well. I found this info posted on familysearch Just yesterday, but whoever posted it didn't list the other siblings.
