Notes |
- Andrew and his first wife, Susanna Capen, lived in Rehoboth, MA, County of Bristol from 1665 to 1691 then they removed to the town of Newton, MA, County of Middlesex, to a residence on Oak Hill from 1691 to 1756. After the death of his first
wife on 18 Aug 1736, he married Mary Bennett on 12 Oct 1737. All of Andrew's children were born in Newton, MA.
According to the History of Newton, Massachusetts (1630-1880), Andrew Hall settled there in 1695. It also states that Andrew Hall came into the South part of Newton about 1695, and bought 43 acres of land in 1695, for 22 pounds, of Thomas Wiswall, son of Capt. Noah Wiswall. The tract was bounded east by Deham highway, west by John Kenrick and the widow of Joseph Parker, north by John Woodward, Jr., Samuel Truesdale, and John Kenrick, Jr., south by Deacon James Trowbridge.
According to the book "Genealogical and Personal Memoirs, Worcester County, Volume 2," the Coat of Arms in the possession of this family is like that of the Medford Halls, and it is very likely that many of the immigrant Halls were brothers or
near relatives. His will was dated September 30, 1748 and made his son, Edward, executor and confirmed to him the homestead already deeded to him. His will was proved 1757, Newton, MA.
