CHARLES HALL, SR. (d. 1909) CHARLES HALL SR. DIES ON MONDAY One of County’s Well Known Pioneers Passes Away at Ripe Old Age BEST KNOWN FARMER IN THIS COMMUNITY. Charles Hall Sr., pioneer of the county, prominent citizen and a man of affluence in the community where he resided is no more, the Angel of Death having invaded the home on the Town Line Road on Monday the demise occurring after a short illness. The decedent had attained a ripe old age of 80 years a span of life that is coming to be recognized as unusual in this day. He is survived by an aged widow and nine children; James, Wyoming; Marcella, Milwaukee; John, Fresno, California; Ed and Sam of the town of Manitowoc, Frank, Charles and Jos. and Mrs. Frank Muth. Funeral arrangements have not yet been made. Charles Hall was born in Ireland in 1828 and together with mother, brothers and sisters came to America a few years later, the family residing at Boston for three years previous to removing to this county where the name of Hall has become to be the best known of any of the old settlers. Owning one of the large and splendid farms of the county, the broad acres are a testimony to the industry and hardihood of this pioneer who was the embodiment of honesty and thrift. That prosperity came to him was natural and is but the result of fearlessly overcoming the obstacles that beset him in those earlier days. When the gold fever was at its height in 1852 Mr. Hall like many others in that day, started out for this Eldorado making the journey with an ox team over the continent the journey requiring six months during which time there were many hair breadth escapes from the Indians and the trip was fraught with many other hardships. Remaining in California but a short time, the pioneer gave up the hunt for the elusive yellow metal and returned to Wisconsin where the virgin soil offered a surer albeit slower means to the same end. All who knew this pioneer intimately sense a keen personal loss in his death. The community which had been his home, his friends and neighbors will mourn with sincerity that accrues only after years of close association that brings out true character. Manitowoc Daily Herald, March 9, 1909 P. 1 ******** With 110 carriages in line the funeral cortege which followed the remains of the late Charles Hall to Evergreen cemetery this afternoon was one of the largest in years in the city. Rev. Coxe of Sheboygan officiated at services at the home… Manitowoc Daily Herald, March 12, 1909 P. 1 ******** Town Line resident Charles Hall, Sr., died Monday after a short illness at the advanced age of 80. Charles Hall was born 1828 in Ireland and came to America with his family as a child. After living in Boston for 3 years the family then moved to Manitowoc County. In 1852 California gold fever broke out and caught Charles Hall in its lure. He traveled overland in a prairie schooner to the Golden State, but soon came back and returned to farming. Mr. Hall is survived by his sorrowing widow and 9 children. Der Nord Westen, 11 Mar. 1909 ******* Charles Hall, Sr., a pioneer settler of the county, died Monday night at his home on the town line road north of the city, after a brief illness. Mr. Hall was 80 years and 7 months old. He was born at Lachen Bridge in County Monaghan, Ireland, August 4, 1828. He came to this country with his mother, one sister and two brothers, in 1848. The family settled at Providence R.I., where they remained about two years and then came west settling in Manitowoc in 1850. Shortly after arriving here Mr. Hall left for the California gold fields, traveling across the plains in a "prairie schooner," drawn by an ox-team completing the journey in six months. He returned two years later and purchased the land two miles north from the city on the town line road, where he had since lived. His large farm is one of the model farms of the county. Mr. Hall was typical of the shrewd, practical, thrifty average American farmer, careful but withal progressive, and he made a success of agriculture that has been surpassed by few men in Manitowoc county. He was noted for his industry and greatly esteemed for his uprightness and integrity. He is survived by his wife, seven sons and two daughters. The children are James and John of California, Edward, Samuel, Charles, Joseph and Frank of the town of Manitowoc; Miss Marcella Hall of Milwaukee and Mrs. Frank Muth of this city.

JOHN HALL (d. 1906) INSERT IN FRONT PAGE ARTICLE: FIRE LADDIE, A MARTYR TO DUTY John P. Hall, the city fireman who lost his life as the result of injuries in the fire Saturday night, was 39 years of age, having been born June 2, 1866. Previous to coming to this city twelve years ago, he was employed as the engineer of a tug boat on the lake at Manistee, where his family resided and which city was his early home. Mr. Hall had been a member of the fire department for three years and was attached to the North Side station. The family resides on Huron street and a widow and four children, ranging in ages from 3 to 13 years, survive to mourn his loss. His parents, one brother and five sisters also survive. He was one of the popular members of the department, conscientious and willing, and was held in high esteem by his fellows and the public in general. Funeral arrangements have not been made, but the burial will probably be in charge of the city. Flags are at half mast in honor of the memory of the dead.

Hall, the city fireman who lost his life in the fire Saturday night, is a plan that will be proposed to the council at the meeting this evening and will probably be adopted as Mayor Stolze and a number of members of the Council have endorsed the suggestion. The pension plan was outlined at a meeting of city officials and aldermen at the city hall Tuesday afternoon and was unanimously favored. Under the ordinance that will be prepared for the Council, the city will grant a pension of $25 per month to Mrs. Hall for an indefinite period and the passage of the ordinance may inaugurate a pensioning system that will be followed by the city in the future with reference to the fire and police departments. There has never been a pension system here and the suggestion has never been offered until the present. Hall is the first member of Manitowoc's fire department to lose his life. It is practically assured that the pension will be granted. Businessmen and citizens generally, in informal conference at the city hall Tuesday afternoon endorsed a movement for the circulation of a subscription list for benefit of the family of the late John P. Hall, the city fireman who sacrificed his life to the call of duty in the Chair Company factory fire Saturday night and a committee of two, John H. Kieth and A. J. Torrison, was named to have charge of the list. The subscription was started Monday but was not circulated until a call had been made for a meeting of businessmen to endorse it. The aim is to secure a subscription of at least $1000 to meet a mortgage which is on the little homestead of the late fireman and if a larger amount can be secured it will be done. Mayor Henry Stolze, who attended the meeting contributed $830 to the subscription which was given a good start at the conference, businessmen responding liberally to the call. The committee is about with the list and there is little doubt that the hope of $1000 list will be realized. The circulation of the subscription list started Monday morning was stopped in the afternoon with a view of ascertaining what action the council would take to making provision for Hall's family. After it was announced that the pension system had been favored, the businessmen continued with the list and the original plan will be carried out. Manitowoc Daily Herald, Jan. 17, 1906 page 1


JOHN HALL (d. 1919) JOHN HALL, ONE OF OLDEST SETTLERS, PASSES TO REST Pioneer Who Settled Here in 1850 Attained Ripe Old Age of 89 Before Death Came Yesterday Died, at his old homestead in the town of Manitowoc, on Wednesday afternoon, June 26, 1919, John Hall, aged 89 years, four months and eleven days. Wide interest will be awakened in the above announcement for few men were more widely known or stood higher in the estimation of the people of Manitowoc County than John Hall. He was born in Ireland in the Parish of Aughnumullen, near Clogher, Tyrone County, in the heart of Ulster. He was the second son of James Hall and Elizabeth (Campbell) Hall and was born on February 14, 1830. His mother, left a widow, emigrated from Ireland about 1847 with her family of three sons and a daughter. They settled first at Blackstone, Mass., where for two years the brothers worked in a cotton factory. They came to Wisconsin in the autumn of 1850, where they worked in the lead mines near Dodgeville during the winter and in the following spring they came to Manitowoc, living for a little over a year in the village, when they moved on to a tract of land they purchased in Section 7 of the town of Manitowoc and proceeded to make a farm which has ever since been the family homestead. The deceased was married October 12, 1867 to Jane Elizabeth Sniffin at the village of Manitowoc. She died about 17 years ago and there now survive him four children of this marriage. Berlin Hall of Santa Anna, Calif., Jay of this city, and Gordon at the old home and Mrs. Louis Schuette, the only daughter of Fond du Lac, Wis. There are also ten grand children and one great grandchild. Mr. Hall was the last of a pioneer family who were noted among man like instances for high moral character strict business integrity and untiring industry and perseverance. They were of the stock known as the Scotch-Irish or “Ulster men,” a group of people who have furnished to American history more famous names and more valuable citizenship in proportion to their whole number than any other class who have come to its shores from across the sea. It is difficult to write of the deceased individually and apart from his family for the family bond was strong and the brothers in their early undertakings worked together and as a unit even after they had founded separate homes. Their location near the city made the timber valuable and for many years they worked together in lumbering and other timber interests. Their relation in this respect with the shipbuilding interests of the growing village were very close and the amount of oak timber ship knees and spars they furnished was immense. When an especially strong and lofty mast was required, it was the keen eye and sound judgment of John Hall that was sent to the woods to select the tree that would meet the requirement and it was the united strength skill and equipment of the “Hall Brothers” that brought the giant tree from the distant borders of the County and even from Kewaunee and Brown counties to the shipyard. As the timber was cleared off they gave their attention more and more to their farms and the large fields and meadows around each home bare witness to the energy and sagacity, with which they followed that industry. They were pioneers in the introduction of good stock, and bought and sold cattle in large numbers which fattened on the broad acres. The manly character and kindly nature as well as sound practical judgment of John Hall made him prominent among his neighbors. He shunned politics as such, but always maintained a proper interest in affairs of public business. He filled many offices of his town and school district, and was for several terms the representative of his Town on the County Board. ? in his opinions, generous in the hospitality of his home, his friends were many and it is doubtful if he ever had an enemy. So passes from earth a man who is his sphere of life was a remarkable man, the last of a remarkable family, whose labor in the development of Manitowoc County from the wilderness it was to what it now is; cannot be measured by the visible results great as they are for the influence of his example will live on and on.
