(Rockhouse) Letcher Co., Kentucky,
USA.
Notes for Anthony Hall:
Anthony Hall was born on March 7, 1752, in
Hartburn, Northumberland, England, a son of Anthony Hall, and Mary Heppell.
He died of a fever on December 14, 1846, at Deane, Letcher County, Kentucky.
A military grave marker was recently erected at his grave, which is located
adjacent to the Riley Bentley Cemetery, on Kentucky Route 7, about 2 miles
south of the Deane post office.
Edward Polley, who testified on behalf of
Hall's application for pension in 1825, stated that he had known Hall before
the war. Polley stated that he, himself was born in Pittsylvania County.
Hall's statements in support of his application do not establish his birthplace
or residence before 1777. Tax lists of Virginia for 1783 do not include his
name. John Hall a pensioner who lived in Floyd and Perry Counties in Kentucky
at the same time that Anthony Hall lived there, lists his origin as Pittsylvania
County Virginia. John Hall was five years Anthony's
junior.
The first definitive statement of Anthony's
whereabouts lists his enlistment in the 7th Virginia Continental Line unit
commanded by Colonel William Campbell and a Captain Bowyers. Hall enlisted
at Halifax County Virginia on June 10, 1777 for the term of one year. He
stayed with that outfit and was reportedly discharged while in Caswell County
North Carolina on June 9, 1778. He enlisted immediately for a term of three
years in a unit commanded by Lt. Colonel Archibald Lytle and Captain John
Donoho. Hall remembers this as the 2nd Regiment N.C. Continental Line. The
records of muster rolls and a major source on the troops of North Carolina
list Lytle as a Militia Colonel in 1778 assigned to the Hillsborough District.
At about that time Colonel Lytle indeed raised a regiment in Caswell county
and later the militia were called to continental line duty. I could not find
Anthony Hall's name of any list of North Carolina units or in the list of
Lytle's Caswell County levies. Hall stated that he stayed in this regiment
until it was surrendered along with the remainder of the southern troops
at Charleston, South Carolina on May 10, 1780. He further states that he
was neither exchanged or paroled until the end of the war. Other sources
indicate that the remaining prisoners, those who did not die, were exchanged
for other prisoners or those paroled (militia were sent home on a gentleman's
agreement not to fight again in the war), were released upon repeated
negotiations by General Nathaniel Greene. These remaining prisoners were
reportedly freed at Jamestown, Virginia on June 10, 1781.
In the application for pension of Edward Polly
in Perry County Kentucky Circuit Court Anthony Hall stated that he "knows
of Edward Polly performing a tour of eighteen months in the regular army
on the line of the continental establishment under the command of General
Nathaniel Greene, that he himself was a regular solder in said army and knew
said Polly previous to his enlistment and during his own term of service.
It is the same Edward Polly who has this day filed his declaration in writing
for a pension in this court."...November 19, 1825. A friend, Edward Polly
died on May 19, 1845 while a resident of Letcher County, Kentucky. He left
a widow, Mary (Polly) Mullins Polly and eleven children; viz., Sally, Andrew,
Polly, Agnes, Raney, Joseph, Edward, Vina, Nancy, Susannah and
David.
A second witness for Anthony Hall was "Silas
Wooten", who said that he was "well acquainted with Anthony Hall as a
revolutionary war soldier. I do swear that the said Anthony Hall and myself
both enlisted in the same company which was commanded by Captain Bowyer in
the 7th Virginia Regiment commanded by Colonel Campbell in Virginia line
on Continental Establishment, that we both enlisted for the term of one year,
that I do know that the said Anthony Hall did serve out his full term of
enlistment and was honorably discharged at Caswell County in the state of
North Carolina after serving out his full term of enlistment which was one
year under the same enlistment , that I do know that the said Anthony Hall
did then immediately enlist again into the service of the United States in
Colonel Lytle's 2nd North Carolina Regiment in a company commanded by a Captain
Donoho for the term of three years and I do know that the said Hall did serve
in said regiment until the seige at Charlestown in South Carolina and I know
that the said Anthony Hall was then taken a prisoner of war by the British
and was afterwards (not) parolled by them and was not exchanged until peace
was made."...November 16, 1825 Perry County Kentucky
Silas Wooten was supported in his application
for pension by Anthony Hall and Thomas Lovelady. Lovelady stated that "Wooten
enlisted in Halifax County Virginia under Captain Bowyers and Colonel Campbell
,that ...Wooten served out his full term of enlistment and that he served
about two or three months longer and that the said Wooten was in the Battle
at Guilford in March,1781. Wooten stated that he enlisted in January, 1780.
That he served honorably through the Battle of Guilford Courthouse and was
discharged by Colonel Campbell on April 1, 1781 in Caswell County North Carolina.
Silas listed his occupation as schoolteacher.
The 1790 North Carolina Census reports only
one person named Anthony Hall living in the State. He resided in Montgomery
County and had no other people in the house. A marriage bond, entered in
Caswell County, North Carolina, for a marriage between an Anthony Hall and
Winney Harrell is listed in the Latter Day Saints IGI as having occurred
in 1793. This person was likely to have been the same Anthony Hall who lived
in Montgomery County in 1790, although I have no proof. I have not yet contacted
Caswell County to see if a return was sent from a minister, which would indicate
that a marriage took place. I have found no record of children of this marriage.
The pension record of my ancestor doesn't include any information about this
marriage.
My next record of Anthony Hall shows that
he and Richard Hall entered into a marriage bond on December 23, 1794 in
Caswell County, North Carolina. Surety was given to the then Governor Richard
D. Sleight for 500 pounds condition on to marriage with Ruthy Butler. They
were married by the Reverend Nathan Holliday at the home of George Butler,
the father of Ruth. Nathan was a Baptist minister. Ruth and Anthony had "as
many as three children born prior to the year 1800." According to census
records these three children, William, James and David Hall were born in
Virginia. The three other children listed in the pension files were born
in Kentucky; viz., Alexander b. 1808, John, b. 1810 and Samuel b.
1812.
Sometime between 1800 and 1808 Anthony and
Ruth Hall moved through Southwestern Virginia, through Pound Gap and into
Knox County, Kentucky. Anthony was listed as one of the early settlers of
Knox County. By 1816 whether by county line changes of slight movement north
and eastward, Anthony was living in Floyd County, Kentucky. He applied for
pension as a revolutionary war veteran on May 18, 1818 in Floyd County. He
was unsuccessful "for want of proof of service." He reported that his assets
consisted of "one old mare, worth $30 and one cow and calf, worth $10." He
reported his occupation as that of a farmer, but "from age and infirmity"
he was unable to pursue it.
According the Floyd County Court books, his
son William Hall posted bond along with Patrick Johnson on June 24, 1816
for a marriage to occur shortly between William Hall and Margaret Johnson.
The marriage occurred on July 4, 1816. Court book three, page 186, indicated
the "Anthony Hall is appointed Surveyor of the road from Rockhouse ( Fork
of the Kentucky River) into the road above Patrick Johnson's." This places
Anthony Hall as a neightbor to Patrick Johnson at the junction of what are
now Knott, Perry and Letcher Counties.
Anthony applied for pension while a resident
of Perry County, Kentucky on November 16, 1825. As was stated he was supported
in his application by "silas Wooton" and Edward Polly . His application was
approved as of December 14, 1825 and payment of $8 per month was ordered
in arrears to November 17, 1825. Anthony Hall was listed on the 1830 Perry
County, Kentucky census as being 70-80 years old. Ruth was 50-60 years old.
One male child, listed as 10-15 years old was still living at home. This
child may have been Samuel or Everett Hall, who was next door to Anthony
in the 1840 census of Floyd County, Kentucky and was 20-30 years
old.
Interestingly, three houses away from Anthony
lived Elias Mitchel (age 24-36), his wife (age 24-36) and 3 male children,
one of the few "free colored persons" in Floyd County in the 1840 census.
Letcher County was formed in 1842 and this apparently divided some of the
family and put them in different counties. Anthony died at his home in Letcher
County on December 14, 1846.
Ruth continued to live in Letcher County and
was listed in the 1850 census at the home (#73) of John W. Hall (b. 1808),
her son. Ruth stated her age at that time as 86 years. At the next house
(#74) lived Alexander Hall (b. 1811) and his wife Susanna Morgan Hall. This
was also Ruth's son. James Hall and his wife Sarah Johnson (daughter of Patrick
Johnson) lived three residences (#70) away. My great great grandfather lived
two houses (#71) from Ruth Hall in this census.
Ruth applied for bounty land in 1855 under
a new congressional act which further loosened requirements. She received
bounty land warrant #26425, which was issued on May 23, 1856. This warrant
was for 160 acres. I do not know whether this warrant was sold or was used
by the family to patent land. Ruth died some time before
1860
Anthony Hall served in the Revolutionary
War,enlisted in the 7th Virginia Continental Line, Commanded by Colonel William
Campbell and Captain Bowyers. Anthony enlisted on 10 June, 1777 in Halifax
Co., Virginia for a term of one year.He was discharged on 9 June, 1778, in
Caswell Co., North Carolina. He again enlisted for a term of three years
under Lieutenant Colonel Archibald Lytle and Capt. John Donoho. He was in
the 2nd Regular North Carolina Continental Line. He was taken prisoner in
the seige of Charleston, South Carolina on the 10 May, 1780. He remained
a prisoner of the British until the end of the war.
He first married Winney HARRELL, 22 Sep 1792
in Caswell County, North Carolina.
He second married Ruth BUTLER, 23 Dec 1794
in Home Of George Butler, Halifax Co. Virginia. Born 1770 in Halifax Co.

Buried 19 Nov 1880 in Wallsend, N.S.W. Occupation Home Duties. Residence
Wallsend, N.S.W. Comments Arr. Sydney, 8/4/1862, Aboard "Annie Wilson".
Pelton Fell is listed as a populous Colliery
Village located 2 miles NW of Chester-le-Street.
When Jane emigrated to Australia on the "Annie
Wilson" she was also accompanied by William Hepple, his wife Mary Ann and
child Susan aged 1 year. William's age was listed on the passenger list as
22 years, this is the same age as Jane's brother. I feel that it would be
reasonable to assume that the William listed was Jane's
brother.
She married Thomas HENDERSON, son of Jane
HENDERSON, 27 Feb 1857 in St. Giles Church, Giles Gate Moor, Durham. U.K.
Born 1829 in Lazonby, Cumberland, U.K. Christen 28 Jul 1829 in Lazonby,

Primitive Methodist Cem. Wallsend. Occupation Labourer, Platelayer, Pointsman,
Florist. Residence Wallsend N.S.W.
Comments Arr. 1858/61?.
There is no proof that this Thomas HENDERSON
is the Thomas listed as son of Jane. It just happens that Thomas was born
in the right place at approximately the right time. Lazonby does not appear
to have many Hendersons.
It appears that Thomas came to Australia earlier
than his wife Jane as he is not listed on the passenger list of the "Annie
Wilson" In fact I can find no mention of Thomas Henderson in the N.S.W. Immigrant
Lists, I therefore assume that he may have travelled in steerage class, as
these passengers were sometimes not on the passenger
list.

I would respectfully ask permission to visit
my home in North Eastern KY. for the following reasons. The enemy who made
a recent raid on this part of the country on returning paid my family a visit
and literally distroyed anything the had accumalated to live upon for the
winter, I am a poor man and no one left at my home except my wife + some
little children who are not large enough to aid or assist her. She is destitute
of means by which she might procure something to live upon. The enemy not
only distroyed grain, but took nearly all my household. I can by returning
afford them clothing and when I get home can procure supplies-- I will rejoin
my command within (30) thirty days. I live at Floyd County KY. a distance
of about (30) thirty miles.
Hoping that the leave I ask may be
granted.
I am your most Obedient

were also gamblers. They had a sister by the name of Suckey, who fell in

was older than I was, and the other was she had been snake bitten by a
nice-mouthed snake named Polly."

146. Alexander
HALL. Son of James HALL (One
Eyed Jim) & Sarah JOHNSON
(Sally). Born 6 Jan 1825 in Perry County, KY. Died About 1897 in Rowan
County KY.
Dad told me that Elick always wore a stove
pipe hat and he always used a cane when grandpa Jim knew him. Dad's favorite
story about Elick was about a wagon ride on which Jim took Elick. Jim drove
under a tree with some low hanging branches which knocked off Elick's hat.
In a quite gruff and irritated manner, Elick said to Jim, "have Floyd bring
his axe and cut that damned tree down!"
Dad said that Grandpa told him that Elick
had "gotten a woman in trouble in Letcher County in the 1850s and she had
a son who looked so much like Floyd Dee Hall that people could hardly tell
them apart. It was said that Elick had to pay some money to the woman by
court order. The 1870 census of Letcher County listed a boy age 16, named
William Holland living at the house of James Hall, Elick's father. I wonder
if this is the child of Elick Hall.
According to Shirley Thompson Westerlund,
there is a Hall family cemetery on Rockhouse Creek near Black Mountain, Kentucky
where many of the old Halls are buried, including James Hall. There are
apparently still grave markers present.
On July 7, 1998 I received an e-mail response
to my web site from a lady in search of her ancestor's biological father.
Her story was the her ancestor, William Riley Bentley was born and raised
in Letcher County Kentucky. William Riley was born in 1854 and died in 1953.
He was raised by James Quiller Bentley, who had married his mother Lucinda
Farrell in ?1868. It was known by later generations that James Bentley was
not WRB's biological father. People in the family thought that his father
was an Anthony Hall. The parentage was a well kept family secret. I sent
my information along with a copy of a photo of GGpa Floyd to show her relatives.
I think confirmation of this man's relation may be made by searching the
Letcher County court records for a judgment against Elick. The fact that
James Bentley was Elick's next door neighbor in 1870 Letcher County Census
makes me think that Elick gave some land as a part of the
judgment.
He married Clarinda MARTIN, About 1845 in
Letcher Co.,Kentucky, USA. Born 1829.
