1. THOMAS HALL, b. ca. 1609, m. ca. 1630 Unknown, d. 1677 in New Kent Co., VA He was Clerk of New Kent Co., VA, and the Thomas Hall, of Bacon’s Rebellion, and was executed by handing on 12 Jan 1677, at age 68, for showing his support for Nathaniel Bacon by using his pen to write letters and never used a gun. Thomas Hall, clerk of the county and patentee along the Maracossic, also went to the gallows and then Captain Young, Thomas Mott, and Robert Holden. A True Relation of the History of King and Queen County in Virginia, 1607-1790, Front Cover King and Queen County Committee, Jamestown 350th Anniversary Festival Press of the Virginia gazette, 1957, p. 5. Colonel Thomas Goodrich Thomas Hall, clerk of the county, and Anthony Arnold, associate of Colonel Brewerton, were among the leaders who joined Bacon.

He was accused of "treason and rebellion against His Majestie. An account of the estate of Thomas Hall of 245 acres in New Kent County. Bacon's Rebellion: abstracts of materials in the Colonial Records Project Front Cover Virginia Colonial Records Project, Jamestown Foundation (Va.), Virginia State Library, p. 147. Colonel Thomas Goodrich, Thomas Hall, clerk of the county, and Anthony Arnold, associate of Colonel Brewerton, were among the leaders who joined Bacon. “HALL. Prince George county. Arms: Three tigers' heads. Crest: A lion rampant. In the "Virginia Gazette" of 7 Jan., 1739, is an advertisement, "Lost, seme time in August last, a silver snuff box, gilt on the inside and a coat of arms being engraved on the lid, three tygers heads, and the Crest a Lyon Rampant. Whosoever brings it to Mr. Thomas Hall in Prince George county, or to the printer of this paper shall have a Pistole Reward." The advertiser was Thomas Hall, who married Molly, daughter of Major Henry Power of James city, in 1737, and granddaughter of Dr. Henry Power and Mary, his wife, daughter of the Rev. Edward Folliott of Hampton Parish. Thomas Hall is believed to have been a [great] grandson of Thomas Hall, Clerk of New Kent county, who was executed in 1676, as a supporter of Bacon.” Virginia Heraldica: Being a Registry of Virginia Gentry Entitled to Coat Armour, edited by William Armstrong Crozier. pp 30-31. ”A distinguished American family of the name Hall, has the following coat or arms: Three tigers heads and the crest, a lion rampant. This coat of arms was engraved on a snuff box belonging to Representative Thomas Hall, who appeared to recover this snuff box which had been lost and in this advertisement appeared the description of the coat of arms as above given by way of identification of the snuff box. This was the Thomas Hall who married Molly, daughter of Maj. Henry Power, in James City. He was probably a grandson of Thomas Hall of New Kent county Virginia who was executed in 1676 because of the part he took in Bacon’s Rebellion.” September 6, 1914 The Courier-Journal from Louisville, Kentucky, p. 26.

Another Thomas Hall arrived on the Bona Nova in 1620 and is shown living on the Eastern Shore as a servant and identified himself as one of Edward Grindon’s servants at the Treasurer’s Plantation and said that he resided in the home of John and Jane Tyos. He was the Thomas Hall on the “1623 Living At James Citie” as that Thomas Hall is named next to John Tyers. On March 25, 1629, Council and General Court of colonial Virginia heard the cast against Thomas Hall, an indentured servant living in the settlement of Warraskoyack. Edward Grindon, who lived opposite Jamestown, on the south side of the river, was a Burgess in 1623-24. John Tios, or Tyos, lived on the Treasurer's Plantation, as did Thomas Hall. Both had come in the Bona Nova, 1620. It would seem, from the pur-chase of the stolen currants [raisins] and sugar, that Tios and his wife were collecting materials for a Christmas plum pudding.

That he was born in the County of Hanover & State of Virginia (the precise date not recollected) That he was three times drafted in the Militia during the Revolution (the precise year is not now recollected) but he thinks about the year 1780 he was twice drafted & procured a substitute both times each tour being two months That in 1781 he thinks the spring of the year, he was again drafted and marched from the County of Albemarle (to which he had removed from the County of Hanover before the war begun) under Colo. Reuben Lindsay and marched to Richmond, at which place he joined the army under LaFayette and marched with the forces under his command through Hanover & to Fredericksburg thence the route commonly called the wild Goose chase through Louisa county &c. and came into the three notch road near Mechunk Creek; from which place he was sent to the Albemarle Barracks, where he was employed in the public service for the period of about six months as a shoemaker for the troops. The prisoners of Burgoynes Army had been removed over the mountains [Hessians captured at Saratoga on 17 Oct 1777, taken to Albemarle Barracks in Jan 1779, then to Winchester Barracks in April 1781], but there were a number of Tailors, Shoemakers, Sadlers &c employed for the American Army at the Albemarle Barracks, including the time he was thus employed he served rather more than seven months.

A I was born in Hanover County state of Virginia about 1747 2 Have you any record of your age and if so where is it A. I have none. 3 Where were you living when called into service, where have you lived since the Revolutionary war & where do you now live A. When called into service I lived in Albemarle County Virginia where I continued to live since the Revolution & where I now live 4 How were you called into service – were you drafted did you volunteer or were you a substitute, and if a substitute for whom? A I was drafted. 5 State the names of some of the Regular officers who were with the troops where you served, such Continental & militia Reg’ts as you can recollect & the general circumstances of your service. A. I don’t now recollect more than I have stated in my foregoing declaration 6. Did you ever receive a discharge from the service and if so by whom was it given & what has become of it A. I have no recollection of receiving any written discharge Thereupon the said Nathan Hall produced into Court the following certificates. “I certify that Mr Nathan Hall s’r lived with me as a miller about five years, and I believe there does not live a more honest just man in the state. I have always had this opinion of him since my first acquaintance with him which was about the year 1812. I also believe there are few men more to be depended on as to what he may say or make oath to Robert Lindsay/ Sept 5 1832 th “I have known the said Nathan Hall about sixteen years I believe him to be as honest a man as much to be depended on as any man whatever none excepted. Abraham Hawley “This is to certify that I have known Nathan Hall for fifty years, and I believe him to be an honest man and that he would not swear false for his pension, and that he worked six months for the United States as a shoe make which I can be qualified if required. Charles Huckstep “I do hereby certify that I have been acquainted with Nathan Hall Sr. for thirty years and more, and have always and at all times thought him a truly honest and correct man, and do believe that he may be relied on by any man or court should he testify to any thing whether interrested or not, I do not think he would take a false oath for a Pension or any thing else save life or limb, it is true that he has been some time in the habit of drinking too much. I once recommended him to the Reverend Jno B Magruder to keep a common grist mill the said JBM, did employ him and two or three years after so employed, said JBM thanked me for recommending such an honest and good man as said Hall was, and if I mistake not, the said Hall continued in said mill dureing the life of said JBM and many years after his death, and my impression is that he would have kept said mill until this day had his strength not failed him – this 4 day th of September 1832 W T Alligree” Personally appeared before me the undersigned a Justice of the peace for the county of Albemarle State of Virginia Nathan Hall Sen’r., who, being duly sworn, deposeth and saith, that, by reason of old age, and the consequent loss of memory he cannot swear positively as to the precise length of his service, but according to the best of his recollection he served not less than the periods mentioned below, and in the following grades: For seven months as a common Soldier employed as a shoemaker for the army; and for such service I claim a pension.” Given under my hand this 7 day of May 1833.
