Hall Family History and Genealogy

Wanda Degidio Research on the Hall Family

Who were Asa and Jesse Hall's parents? Family tradition is their father was named Benajah. It is also tradition that Benajah moved from Rhode Island to Dutchess County New York when both boys were small children.

Some researchers state, without any positive documentation that the author is aware of, that Asa and Benajah are from a prominent Connecticut Hall family that dates back to an immigrant, John Hall (1605-1676) of the Manchester district of England. The family settled in the Wallingford Connecticut area. There was a Benajah Hall, born 12 Feb. 1734 to David and Alice Hale Hall of this family. But this Benajah was a doctor and apparently died 21 Mar. 1760 and left no family. The search for our Benajah must begin in Dutchess County NY and in Rhode Island.

A line of research by Wanda DeGidio leads us to a Rhode Family of Halls, specifically John Hall of Westerly Rhode Island.
