    ... The family was of English descent. Jacob Hall's great-grandfather, Jacob Hall, who was probably originally a Quaker, emigrated from Macclesfield, Chester [sic], to Bucks County, Pennsylvania, in 1684/5, and a few years later moved to Philadelphia County, where he became a justice. There is some reason to believe that he was a follower of Keith and joined the established church, of which his children are known to have been members at the time of Keith's defection from Quakerism. His second son, Joseph Hall, married Rebecca Rutter ...
