Notes for David Hall:

The 1900 Rowan County Kentucky census lists David Hall in house #97 in Pine Grove. His home house five outher people who were listed as "borders". Riley Hall and his wife Martha and their children Linda, Richard and Neva Hall. Great-Grandpa Floyd Hall's second wife, whom he married in 1899, was Mary Hall, the daughter of Riley Hall. She was 18 years old at the time of their marriage.

On January 10, 1998 I talked to my dad, Arthur Hall, to get as much information about Uncle Dave down on paper. He was a good man but an odd-ball. He was a wood cutter. He used to sit outside and eat bread which he had stufffed into his pants pockets.

He was crippled by a tree which fell while he was working with his son Leonard. The tree kicked back as it fell and impale the muscle in Dave's leg. He lay for hours under the tree until it could be lifted off of him.

He worked for my grandpa James Hall on several occasions and helped cut wood to be used for railroad ties. He was paid 50 cents per day and wanted him pay to be placed under his plate at dinner every evening. Dad told me that the 50 cents " weighted down his pants so much that Dave took them off and worked only in his shirttail." Davd was such a tight wad, that he "rolled up his britches while working in the fields to keep the saw briars from tearing them." Saw briars were long vines which were filled with thorns about a sixteenth of an inch long. When a Mrs Hogg came by and saw the scratches and blood running down Uncle Dave's leg she suggested that he roll the pants down. Uncle Dave replied, "that ok, the skin wil grow back, the pants won't."

Uncle Dave often came to stay and work for Grandpa Hall. He would stay for a couple of weeks at a time. He would go out and cut piles of wood. Dad didn't think Dave got along with Leonard's wife, who was a Skaggs. They had one child, a girl.

84 iii. Daniel Boone Hall, born April 16, 1853 in Letcher County Kentucky; died 1944 in Rowan Co. Ky.. He married (1) Lyda Moore. He married (2) Elizabeth J. Cornett.

Notes for Daniel Boone Hall:

They called him Elick's lawyer. Dad said that Daniel was the only one of Elick's boys who had any education. He was a womenizer. Was going with one women whom he never slept with, according to what he told dad. One day the stepfather of the women asked Uncle Dan, " your not figuring on marrying her are you." When Dan she, well I think so, the stepfather told him that, " I've lived in hell since marrying her mother." Uncle Dad didn't marry her.

Dan's kids were Ally , Frank and Merle. Their mother "lost her mind", after the kids grew up. She came back from the asylum in Lexington several times and returned when they couldn't keep her at home.

Uncle Dan worked as a carpenter. He died in about 1944, while Dad was in Europe in the service. This was sometime before Jim and Chloe Hall left Kentucky and moved to Indiana. Uncle Ben helped bury him. Uncle Floyd had the record in the minutes of his church.

Dan could jump up and click his heals 3 times before he hit the ground. He was spry in his old age right up to just before he died. He could dive into the creek bed and turn a flip before he hit the water when he was well into his 70s. Dad had heard about it and didn't believe it until he saw Dan do it. None of the young boys who swam at the creek in Gates could match the performance.

85 iv. Floyd Dee Hall, born 1855 in Letcher County Kentucky; died 1938 in Big Perry,Rowan County,Kentucky. He married (1) Susan Johnson 1882. He married (2) Mary Hall August 2, 1899 in Rowan Co. Ky.@E.J.Samuels by John Kelley witness Riley Hall and CC Caudill. He married (3) Mary Burton November 29, 1909 in Rowan Co. Ky..

Notes for Floyd Dee Hall:

Great-grandpa Floyd Hall was born in Letcher County Kentucky in 1855 and moved to Rowan County with his parents in 1872. Floyd received an original land grant in Rowan County which was surveyed on April 18, 1901. This land was 100 acres on the North Fork of Triplett Creek. This land grant is listed in a book which is available on the ancestor.com website. This was undoubtedly the land in Munson, Kentucky on which he lived when he married Mary Burton, his third wife. He died in 1938 and was buried on the point at the mouth of Big Perry near Gates, Kentucky. This was at the Northeast corner of the intersection of U.S. route #60 and Kentucky State Road #799, which is known as Big Perry Road. His grave and that of Uncle Dave Hall was moved in 1988 to Hay Cemetery, which is on Haldeman Road. A construction project to widen U.S. 60 necessitated the removal and reburial.

This road had previously gotten Floyd Hall into trouble. When the highway was originally constructed, Floyd was forced to sell part of his land through condemnation proceedings for the highway right-of-way. He had agreed also to allow the removal of gravel from parts of the creek to be used in construction. The construction workers however removed gravel from a portion of the creek which would have changed the flow and erode his land. Floyd came to the creek with his shotgun to stop them. The Sheriff was called and apparently the authories were preparing to take Floyd to jail. Dad told me that Floyd came to Grandpa James Hall's house on Big Perry crying to get him to help with his bond. The charges were dropped and the construction workers took the gravel from where Floyd told them.

Floyd and Grandpa Jim helped to move a family who had no money. Floyd told Grandpa, "I'll get something."

Floyd shot left-handed. He was a skilled self-taught carpenter, whose special skill, according to dad, was making wooden sleds. These were used to carry supplies and were made entirely out of wood. Dad said that Floyd would drill 2 inch holes in the wood with a hand auger.

According to dad and Uncle Woodrow Hall, Floyd liked to tell Daniel Boone stories. A conversation between him and his children always included Boone. One tale involved the time Daniel was trapped in a loft in a house which had been captured and overrun by Indians. With the Indians comfortably situated in the lower area of the house, Daniel appeared to be finished. As night fell, Boone was determined to escape. He suddenly jumped from the loft and let out a blood-curdling yell. Having taken the Indians completely by surprise, Boone was able to run through the door and make his escape into the night.

Floyd also liked to talk about the old relatives after supper was finished. Uncle Woodrow also mentioned that Floyd was known for his generosity and no one ever went away hungry. Floyd donated the land at the mouth of Big Perry for a school site.

After I sent several stories to Dad about Talt Hall and Claibe Jones, Dad mentioned that he knew of an episode about Claibe Jones. As mentioned in the story of the Martin-Tolliver Feud, previously there had been trouble in the Rowan county area between to competing factions. The Underwoods and the Holbrooks had been at war. Dad reported that Grandpa Floyd, "was going with Underwood's daughter." The "old man," Mr. Underwood was using Grandpa as a go between with the enemy. The Holbrook faction had told Underwood that if he sent his hired guns away that there would be a truce. Underwood complied but soon thereafter, his son was shot and killed in ambush while he was plowing a field. Underwood call on Grandpa Floyd to go to ask "his guards", or hired gunmen to return. Floyd told Dad that the guards refuse to go back. The hired men told Floyd that they had to crawl away on their hands and knees to get out alive the previous time. When grandpa told Underwood that his "guards" he refused to return, he told Grandpa, "well, I'm a dead man then." Grandpa told Dad that the Holbrooks came back and shot out Underwood's eyes. Dad thinks that this occurred near the Rowan-Carter County border on Samp's Bear Hill. Dad told me that one of Underwood's guards who had crawled away and refused to return was Claibe Jones.

Notes for Susan Johnson:

The 1880 Rowan County Kentucky census listed Susan Johnson as living at home at her parents house in Pine Grove Precinct #1. This house stood on the land where my father grew up on Big Perry. Susan's father's grave lies in the side yard of the house which is there now. The grave is marked with his name and dates. Susan was the first of three wives of my paternal great-grandfather Floyd Dee Hall.

86 v. Fanny Hall, born April 9, 1857 in Letcher County Kentucky²³. She married Thomas W. Rice²⁴ September 20, 1884 in Rowan Co. Ky.²⁵.

87 vi. Susanna Hall, born 1859. She married Ed J. Samuel September 16, 1882 in Rowan Co. Ky.²⁶.

Notes for Susanna Hall:

Ed Samuel married Susanna Hall, the daughter of Elick Hall on September 16, 1882. Grandpa Jim Hall told my dad Arthur that Ed ran a grocery store in Morehead that was owned in partnership by Floyd Hall, my great-grandfather and Uncle Dan Hall. Both owners were brothers of the bride, Susanna Samuel. Dad said that Uncle Dan's part of the business apparently was just providing the brains of the operation. On several occasions, Uncle Dan was "running to Floyd to get more money to run the store." Floyd sent his son and my grandfather, Jim Hall to find out what was happening to the money that he was pouring into the store. Grandpa found out that Ed was taking the receipts and using the money for his personal expenses. When he needed more inventory for the store he would send Uncle Dan to get more money from Floyd. When Floyd found out what was happening, he stopped sending money. The store "didn't last very long after that," said Dad.

Notes for Ed J. Samuel:

Ed Samuel ran a store in Morehead. Great-grandpa Floyd Hall and his brother Daniel Boone Hall were partners in the store. When they ran short of money, Ed would asked Uncle Dan to go to Floyd to get more money. My grandpa, James W. Hall was sent to the store to find out why they continued to run out of funds to restock the mechandise. Grandpa found out that Ed was using the gross receipts for spending money. When he needed money to restock to inventory he would send Uncle Dan to get it from Floyd. When Floyd found out he stopped sending money and the store was closed soon thereafter.

Floyd had married his second wife, Mary Hall in 1899, when she was 17. The wedding took place at Ed Samuel's house. Ed provided the surety bond. Witnesses were Riley Hall, the brides father adn C.C.Caudill.

90 ix. Francis M. Hall, born 1871.

91 x. Joseph Hall, born 1873. He married Betty ?.

Notes for Joseph Hall:

Dad told me that Uncle Joe and Aunt Betty ran a grocery store at one time. They lived in Portsmouth, Ohio for a while and moved back to Gates, Kenutucky in 1930. Later they lived on Christy Creek. Uncle Joe died while living on North Fork (of Triplett Creek).

Everett the oldest boy ran a whisky store after Uncle Joe died.

Jess was lazy and ran around with the town drunks. Jess wouldn't do "a damned thing." He bummed his way and lived off of Everett. Betty would invite dad in for a beer and he used to sit in back and talk to her.

Everett married Bert Stanley's daughter. Bert Stanley had cut the throat of Adolph Black the fiance of my aunt Vernie Hall. She never married and died in the 1930', single and broken hearted. Adolph's murderer was sent to jail for some time.

Bought Alley Hall's store when he came back from Ohio. In Gates. Built a new building and while closed down he lost his customers. George Molton built 1/2 mile away and had cheaper prices. John Molton ran the store which store which sold grocery and feed. It was just above Gates toward Haldeman. Sold it to Noah Kegley. One of his daughters ran it for a while and quite after she married.

Uncle Joe was a tight-wad. He used to buy beans from GM Hall that he called "little tight beans." He meant beans were close together in the hull. He wouldn't buy anything at normal price and his store prices were high.
