It appears from this census that he was probably born ca. 1760-1770 and his wife ca. 1770-1780. Were there actually two men born about the same time in the Greene and Washington Co. areas, one named Alexander HALL and another named Alexander HALE?? According to most transcriptions, Alexander HALL m. Susanah McCOLAM (McCOLLUM) in 1793 in Washington Co., TN however the Washington Co. GenWeb page has transcribed this marriage as Alexander HALE. Susannah was the daughter of Thomas McCOLLUM and Mary VENEMAN (VAN EMAN) of Greene Co. I am descended from Thomas' son James McCOLLUM and Rachel JONES and am just beginning/renewing my efforts to more thoroughly document the family of Thomas McCOLLUM.
