... Immediately, after resigning as surgeon in the Revolutionary Army, April 5, 1780, Dr. Jacob Hall moved to Harford County, Maryland, and began the practice of medicine near where Deer Creek enters the Susquehanna.

She married May 27, 1746, at Trinity-Church, Oxford, Philadelphia County, Dr. Elisha Hall of Mount Welcome, Cecil County, Maryland. He was a son of Elihu Hall (1692-1753) of Mount Welcome and his wife Sarah Harrison, Maryland, and a grandson of Richard Hall, of Calvert County, Maryland. Dr. Elisha Hall is said to have been born in 1729; d. 1757, but this is improbable as he is known to have been married in 1746, which would make him only seventeen at the time of his marriage and therefore several years younger than his wife. Dr. Elisha Hall after his marriage continued to live in Maryland. As far as is known the families of Elisha Hall and his wife, Ruth Hall, were entirely distinct. Elisha Hall's will proved, Cecil Co. Nov. 30, 1757. ...
