Betty and I have been corresponding privately on this for the past few days, and I think we have identified the Zilpah Hall born in Wayne County in 1801. Unfortunately, she's *not* Betty's Zilpah Hall. However, for the benefit of archived list messages, I'd like to post what I put together from Hinshaw's Quaker records. Apologies are in order, however, for a slightly off-topic followup since it turns out this family didn't come to Rowan County. Zilpah or Zilpha was the daughter of Isaac HALL, b. 4-8-1782, son of Isaac Hall Sr. and Ann WHITE, of Northampton Co. NC. Isaac Jr. married Mary DOUDNA, daughter of John DOUDNA, on 10-23-1800. Their marriage is recorded at Contentnea Monthly Meeting. They had two children in North Carolina, Zilpah born 8-12-1801 and Henry b. 2-6-1803. In 1804 the family moved to Concord Monthly Meeting in Jefferson County Ohio, and later moved from there to Stillwater MM, Belmont Co. OH. Isaac's parents and three brothers also moved to Ohio around the same time. Isaac and Mary had eight more children after their move to Ohio. Zilpah HALL married John HARTLEY 2-2-1826 at Stillwater MM. They had eight children before Zilpah died on 7-26-1841. Thus this Zilpah isn't the one Betty was looking for.
