Marian, My GGGrandparents were Obediah Hall and Elizabeth Rose. Their fourth child, and second son, was James Monroe. Family records and county marriage records indicate he was born October 28, 1851 in Findlay, Hancock County, Ohio. He married Ella M. sides February 22, 1877. James Monroe Hall died March 7, 1850; I don't know where exactly. I think I recall my grandmother visiting him in Kansas City. Is this your guy? My Great Grandfather, Calvin Sigel Hall, was 11th of 13 children of Obediah and Elizabeth (Rose) Hall. He was their last son. Sigel and his wife, Laura Hudson, are buried here in Portland, Oregon.
