• Notes

  Luther Hall and his wife Hannah were both members of the Congregational Church and he held the office of a deacon during the first twelve years of his married life. He was of a serious turn of mind from childhood, preferring books to play and noted for his honesty. He filled the office of a deacon well and cheerfully performed every duty imposed upon him, glad to do all he could to promote the cause of Christ at home and abroad. It was his custom to read the Bible through once every year and to make it his study and the rule of his moral and Christian conduct. His wife Hannah was the mother of his children and a fit companion for such an excellent man. He was a farmer as his ancestors had been and owned and lived on the farm formerly owned by Lt. Nathaniel Whitmore, who built the house in 1780. Nathaniel Whitmore and his sons occupied the farm for a long period. He was also a blacksmith and set up for himself the first trip hammer used in Sutton. The Whitmore family were buried in Millbury. Abel Chase owned the farm next was of Whitmore's and was also a blacksmith (his shop and farm have been confounded in history with the Whitmores and Halls.
