- From Turmer's History of Peru, Maine, p. 163-164:
"Jeremiah Hall and family, with his brother Robert L. and Liberty and their families, moved from Peru to Concord, N. H. in 1853. The two brothers named worked as carpenters for the Concord Wagon Co."
"The families of Liberty and Virgil Hall, having moved from Rochester, N.Y. to Glencoe, Minn. in the fall of 1868, their parents Jeremiah and Sarah and dau. Elvira, joined them in last part of the year 1870 from Rochester, N.Y. Liberty had charge of the interests of D. Appleton in the Northwest for twenty-three years, the last few years opening up a drug store qand publishing the Glencoe Register, the official paper of McLeod county. Failing health compelled him to seek a warmer climate. He and his wife joined their sons, Clifford and Harry, at Kansas City in 1887. Jeremiah died at Glencoe in 1884. His wife Sarah went with family to Kansas City, Mo. and died there in 1888. She was buried beside her husband at Glencoe, Minn. ... The climate did not prove beneficial to Liberty Hall at Atlantic City and he became so feeble that is was thought advisable to take him to Denver, Col. This was done by Dr. Greaves, the husband of Elvira Hall. After two weeks he was much improved, and at the end of six weeks he felt he could return home and to business, and that day, the 23rd of June 1891, wrote his wife he would be back in a few days. He walked two miles two miles that day before elevn o'clock, and retired in the best spirits. At five minutes to twelve, he called his niece, Virtie, dau. of Virgil, to come quickly. He died soon, June 21, 1891, or Hemorrhage. He was buried at Glencoe beside his son Charley, brother Virgil, sister Elvira Greaves and father and mother Hall."
