• Notes

  From David R. Seiter , July 2019: I believe the link to Hall family (020) is as follows: Ephraim Hall (Onondaga, New York, Elisha Hall (Eaton county,Michigan), Levi F. Hall (Kalamo, Eaton, Michigan) James W. Hall (the subject of this article I wrote for Camp 20 Michigan sons of Union Veterans). James' son George W. Hall married Hannah Frances Ball who is a descendant of William Bradford, William Brewster, Thomas and Joseph Rogers all of the Mayflower. "On 10 September 1841 in Danville, New York James Wallace Hall was born to Levi F. and Nancy E. (Brown) Hall. James' Great Grandfather was Ephraim Hall a revolutionary war soldier who died 8 June 1842 in Navarino, Onondaga, New York. About 1842 Levi moved James, his older brother George, and their mother Nancy to Kalamo, Eaton County, Michigan where James' grandfather Elijah Hall lived with his wife Lydia. "Elijah became a land owner purchasing for the sum of $500.00, the north east quarter of section 20 in Kalamo township from John Flory and his wife Aurelia. A short three months later on May 5, 1849 Elijah split off the north west quarter of the north east quarter of section 20 and sold it to Levi. There Levi thrived as a stone mason and farmer. James was following in his father's footstep until 10 March 1861 when James's mother passed away. She was buried in Mason Cemetery, Eaton County, Michigan. Levi remarried 19 October 1861 to a woman 3 years older than James. 5 Dec 1862 James went to Marshall Michigan and enlisted in company "A" of the 8th Michigan Cavalry. On the 28th of December Levi sold his land to his son James W. Hall for the sum of $300.00 with the provision that Levi be allowed to live out his life on the land. James mustered in 30 December 1862 at Mount Clemens, Michigan and trained at Camp Butler, Mt. Clemens, Michigan from 30 December 1862 to 2 May 1863. They left the State for Covington, Ky., May 12, 1863; their first assignment was Operations against Everett in Eastern Kentucky June 13-23 1863. At Triplett's Bridge Ky. on June 16th, 1863, The 10th Kentucky Cavalry led by Lt. Col. R. R. Maltby overtook Colonel Everett's command at Triplett's Creek Bridge in Rowan County. Maltby's men defeated the Confederates, and took several prisoners. Then Col. DeCourcey's 8th Michigan Cavalry arrived, they mistook Lt. Col Maltby's men for rebels, in the confusion Colonel Everett and the rest of his command escaped to Russell County, Virginia. June 27-July 25, the 8th with several other Union regiments, pursued the rebel General John Hunt Morgan on his famous raid through Indiana and Ohio. Following several engagements and a long close pursuit, On Sunday July 26, 1863 routed by his pursuers Morgan fled north to Salineville. By 8 am they were overtaken with 30 killed, 50 wounded and 200 taken prisoner by 9th Michigan Cavalry, At West Point, Ohio the 15th Indiana Independent Battery of Light Infantry, Kentucky 1st, 9th, 11th & 12th Cavalries, and the 8th Michigan Cavalry continued to press Morgan who surrenders 6 hours later in a field near West Point, Columbiana County, Ohio. They move on to Mt. Sterling, Ky. and were attached to 2nd Brigade 4th Division, 23rd Army Corps, for Operations against Scott in Eastern Kentucky. At Paint Lick Bridge, under Col. W. P. Sanders the 8th and 9th Michigan, 1st, 10th and 14th Kentucky, 2nd and 7th Ohio and 15th East Tenn. cavalry, and 1st and 2nd East Tenn., 45th Ohio and 112th Ill. mounted infantry, pursued Scott. After fighting the Confederate rear-guard. Sources: The Campaign for Atlanta by William R Scaife The National Park Service.
