   pp 55-56: ... Some of those first settlers, who are said to have built some of these first houses between 1794 and 1797, and on up to 1802, were Mrs. Carson, Joseph Glenn, William Glenn, J. Mc-Gauhey, and Moses Hall. ... Moses Hall, who owned all the property east of the town limits, and much to the south of both, built a bridge across Clear Creek on what is now known as the Mt. Eden pike, or Cemetery Road and donated to the town sufficient land for a road to Main Street. It is now known as Third Street. The land from that point to the Clear Creek bridge on the main road which is now a part of Main Street, had been previously donated to the town, and in 1814, we find that Moses Hall, was advertising for sale all the land east of the town lots of Shelbyville, or that bounded by Third Street, Main Street and Clear Creek. ...
   
   pp 96-97: ... The indistinctly written names of the members of the Shelbyville part of the joint churches in 1810, are given in the same book as follows: ... Mrs. Hall, Moses Hall, ... [Mulberry Creek Church] Moses Hall ...
   
   p 127: ... Probably the first paper of any pretentions made its first appearance in 1814. It was called the Kentuckian. Its file for that year showed among other contents the advertisement of Moses Hall, who wished to sell the land "adjoining the town lots of Shelbyville and between them (now Third Street) and the bridge across Clear Creek." ...
   
   p 135: ... The land [for the cemetery] was purchased of Mark Hardin, Daniel Livly and Josephus Wilson.* [* The land was originally owned by William Owen and Moses Hall.]
   
   pp 167-168: ... Moses Hall came to Kentucky about 1780. A "Treasury Warrant" was issued to Moses and Edward Hall on the third of April, 1782 for one thousand eight hundred and eighty and one-fourth acres located in Fayette County, Ky., signed by Patrick Henry. Moses Hall was in Shelby County, July 19, 1797, as court records show he bought 300 acres at that time from Edward Worthington bearing date Feb. 24, 1796); was paying tax in Shelby County, 1792, on property in Campbell County, Ky. In 1814, Moses Hall advertised for sale the land which he owned, adjoining the town of Shelbyville and between them and the bridge across Clear Creek. The town lots belonging to Shelbyville in the east end at that time extended to Third Street, and the property Mr. Hall wished to sell included everything on both sides of Main Street between Third Street and the creek. The first bridge built in Shelby County was across Clear Creek at the east end of Shelbyville near where Logan & Logan afterwards operated a mill. The idea of building it was suggested first at the April term of court, 1803, and Thos. Guin, Moses Hall and William I. Tunstall were appointed commissioners to view and mark the most fit and proper place to erect a bridge across Clear Creek convenient to the road leading from Shelbyville to Frankfort. Also to make out and present a plan for the bridge and report the probable cost of the same at the next term of court. ... Moses Hall, who as said, owned all the property then east of the town limits, which were where Third Street now is, was the man who built the first bridge across Clear Creek on what is now known as the Mt. Eden pike. He donated to the town sufficient land for a street from the bridge to the Main Street, and what he gave is now Third Street.

Hall, John Hall, Allen Hall, Isabelle Hall. ...
