John Hall, I (N-16)

Abt 1660 - Bef 1704  (< 44 years)

• Name	John Hall  [2, 3, 4]
  	John Hall I, son of Emanuel & Ann (--?--) Hall of N-16 has been confused with the John Hall, son of Emanuel & Elizabeth (--?--) Hall of N-102. Both Johns were contemporaries and each married a woman named Frances. John of N-16 married Frances Griffith, and John of N-102 first married Frances (--?--), and second married Sarah (--?--). While many records apply to the John Hall of N-16, others are not easy to discern; consequently, it is entirely possible that some records that mention a John Hall could be or either man, but not both at the same time.
