Notes for Syelus Hall
189Syelus Hall succeeded the Richareses on Lynn Camp, he having purchased the improvement of both Jacob and Michael Richards, near the year 1849, and founded his home where his son, Elza C. Hall, now lives.
Mr. Hall, the son of Reuben and Anna Steuart Hall, was born in Marion county, on September 16, 1828, and was one of a family of eight children; viz., Mrs. Louisa (John) Cole, the late Strother Hall, Miss Julia, Mrs. Lavina (W. T.) Baker, and the late Wm. S. Hall, all of Marion county; and A. H. Hall, of Pullman; and Mrs. Laura Amos, of Harrisville. His maternal great-grandsire (Stuart) was a Revolutionary soldier, and when he returned home from the war, he brought with him a souvenir in the form of a cream-pitcher of pretty design, which is still a valued heirloom in the family, it being now in the hands of A. Hunter Hall, of Pullman.
On April 12, 1849, Mr. Hall was married to Miss Lucinda Hawkins, of Marion county, and soon afterwards came to Ritchie, where he has ever since been identified among the best citizens. Mrs. Hall laid down the "Cross" at their home at Pullman, in 1907, but he still survives.
They were the parents of twelve children, all of whom reached the years of maturity and married. One son, Leonard S., has passed on, but the rest survive. What is said of this family can be said of few others of its size, "All are Christians, and none have ever used liquor or tobacco."
The surviving members of the family are: Elliot, and Wilbert Hall, Mrs. Florence A. (Morgan) Pritchard; and Mrs. Ardina McDougal, Pullman; Mrs. Cordelia A. (C. W.) Nutter, Holbrook; Mrs. L. Belle Chipps, Buchannon; the Rev. I. S. Hall, Stuart L., and Elza C., of Trilby.
The Halls are of Scotch-Irish lineage. They trace their ancestry back to Thomas and Rebecca Story Hall, who were citizens of the Deleware colony at the time of the Revolution.
