    ... The parentage of John Hall who married Anne Bolling is not known. He was born in Prince George County near or before 1710, and there is a record of a brother Hugh in 1712. He is stated to have been a relative of Robert Hall, Burgess of Prince George 1718, but a careful study of the records of Robert show nothing in confirmation of a relationship. The name Hugh is perpetuated in John's second born son born in 1733. Practically nothing is known of John Hall except the record of 1712 until he married in 1730 Anne Bolling, born December 12, 1713, the third daughter and child of Robert Bolling of Bollingbrook, (1682-1749), and his wife Anne Cocke. He is termed of Prince George County until the establishment of Lunenburg County in 1746. He probably resided in Amelia between 1750 and 1762, after which he is found in Edgecomb County, North Carolina. ...
