Samuel Hall
- Born: Abt 1715, Somerset Co., MD
- Marriage (1): Margaret (?)
- Died: Between 24 Feb 1768 and 12 Apr 1771, Worcester Co., MD
Samuel Hall's daughter, Sarah, is said to be w/o Daniel Elliott and much circumstantial evidence points there but, this compiler has not proven it yet. Daniel would have had to have married her AFTER her father wrote his will in 1768, however, as she is referred to as Sarah Hall there. That is still plausible.
Samuel Hall's will written Feb 24 1768 and proven in Worcester Co., MD on Apr 12 1771:
- To son John Hall, 50a of land granted in Somerset but now in Worcester called "Winters Quarter". Also 53a called "Bush Ridge" and my riding horse and saddle and three head of cattle, three sheep, ten head of hog and one bed/furniture plus 10 pounds cash
- To son Peter, 50a "Halls Addition" on N side of my plantation and 15 pounds cash in dollars at 7 shillings, six pence per dollar or pistoles at 27 shillings per pistole till 15 pounds be paid. Also a young mare, three head of cattle and three sheep, one bed/furniture and ten head of hog
- To daughter Sarah Hall one bed/furniture, three head of cattle, three sheep and 10 head of hog
- To daughter Margaret Hall one bed/furniture and three head of cattle, three sheep and 10 head of hog and 5 pounds in cash
- To sons John and Peter my rights in cypress timber in tract "Point Patience" in Somerset Co., tract I sold to Nathan Culver but kept cypress timber rights
