    ELISHA HALL, the eldest child of George Hall, of Lyme, Connecticut, and grandson of George and Lydia (Dean) Hall, of Easton, Massachusetts, was born in Lyme in April, 1740.

    His father removed to that part of Windsor which is now Ellington, Connecticut, about 1752 or 1753, and died in 1754. His mother was Sarah Gates, of Preston, Connecticut.

    He was somewhat eccentric, and devoted himself principally to horticulture, in or near Lyme.

    He died in poverty, unmarried, about 1812.
