Notes:

Newell Hall moved to Madison Count y, NY in 1824 as one of the first white settlers there and began farming.

"Newell Hall, one of the five children of this patriot, was born, reared, and married in Massachusetts, and moved from there to Vermont, where he owned and cultivated a farm. In 1824 he sold that land, and, moving to Madison County, New York settled in Smithfield, where the subject of this sketch now lives. The farm was one of the finest and first cultivated in the vicinity, as a tract of timber land having been once owned by Judge Smith and cleared by Mr. Jonas Cleveland. When Newell Hall came to this part of the country, he travelled on foot, viewing the land, and, being pleased with this farm, bought it, paying for half of it in cotton and woollen goods and horses and farming implements. It consisted of one hundred and thirty acres of land; and, although some of it had been broken by the plough, bears and Indians were nearer neighbors than any white settlers. Mr. Hall moved his family to this farm, making the journey all the way from Vermont by team. Of the three sons born to him, only one lives now--he whose name heads this sketch. Those who died were: Palmer, at the age of sixty-four; and Albert, aged thirty. Newell Hall was seventy-two years of age when he died, and his wife was eighty-two. He was well known and esteemed in his vicinity. In politics he was a Democrat."
