HALL, John

HALL, JOHN, who was a member of the Legislature from 1801–6, was no relative of John Hall, the old settler in Penn's valley, who was a member of the County Committee of Safety in 1776 and lived near Spring Mills. The former John Hall was a blacksmith, and was induced to come to Bellefonte by James Harris from the State of Delaware in 1797, and set up a blacksmith-shop and had a tilt-hammer at the foot of Lamb Street.

He died in Boggs township, July 17, 1830, aged seventy-two years. Hannah Hall died Nov. 18, 1853, aged eighty-nine years.
