    Notes:

    In response to an e-mail I sent to Teresa Martin Klaiber 3-22-2006
    Teresa has provided information for a book that was written by Raymond Martin Bell with Assistance from Stuart PI Lloyd and J. Wilbur Clayton 5-18-1979 Titled "The Clayton's of Monmouth County NJ"
    My Bell put Ms. Klaiber's name on the book but she did not co-author it.
    There is a discrepancy as to the year Mary Clayton's mother (Mary Gorden) was born.  Early sources state she was born circa 1763. This would mean she would have been 6 years old when she married Zebulon Clayton in 1774.
    Teresa clears up the dates as well as providing the correct date Zebulon and Mary Clayton's daughter Mary Clayton was born. Mary Ann Gorden was b. 11-11-1768 and her daughter Mary  was b. 10-11-1787 and states she was 19 when she married John Hall in 1804. Just doing the math Mary Clayton was 16 when she married.

    Source of information:  See Richard Hartshorne's notes:
    Mary Clayton was the great grand daughter to Mary Hartshorne Clayton. Mary Hartshorne being the eldest daughter of Richard Hartshorne. Richard left a will in which it names John Hall as one of his witnesses. This will was dated 5-14-1722 and proved 5-22-1722 in Middletown, Monmouth Co., N.J.  Could this John Hall be the great or great great grandfather to John Hall who Mary Clayton is now married to?

    Mary married John Hall on 31 Mar 1804 in Monmouth, New Jersey, USA. John died in Unknown. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Signed by Martin Van Burren president.  (This information is not confirmed as being my John Hall. Indications are that this John Hall Jr. belongs to the Hall family coming out of Kentucky. Will hold on to this information until I can get definitive information.)

    Note: I located in the Carmel Cemetery listings 2 more family members who passed away round the same time as John.
    His son-in-law George A. Gaddis d. 7-30-1859. George was married to John's oldest daughter Mary Jane. George and Mary only had one child a daughter named Nancy J. Gaddis. Nancy b. 1-16-1859 passed away before she turned 5 months old (6-12-1859). Was there a sickness spreading thur the community that may have caused these family members to pass away so close to each other?

    Notes:

    Source of information: Jean Hoffman (djhoff@ix.netcom.com> 11-9-2005
    Jean has done extensive work on the Lyle line as she is a descendant of the Lyle line.
    Jean indicated that Ann Hall, John's sister may on the 1830 census be living with her sister in law Mary Hall as she wouldn't have been married yet and John dosen't seem to be alive.

    Ann married James Lyle on 27 Mar 1832 in Elizabeth, Allegheny, Pennsylvania, USA.

    Notes:

    According to the Republic Township Militia-1862 roster: Alexand Hall age 18 was a member. If this informaiton is for this correct Alexander Hall his age is incorrect. He would have only been 16 at the time. But 2 of his brothers were also members of the Militia and it's very possible this Alexand lied about his age to inlist with his brothers.
