Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 8., Captain Isaac Hall. (search)
the estate as part of her dower. The estate is described as bounded southerly by the country road, westerly on Henry Fowle's land, easterly on land of Thomas Seacomb and Joseph Thompson. Thompson was a royalist at the time of the revolution and his estate was confiscated by the state and sold to Thomas Patten. The dower estate is also described in a later deed from Benjamin Hall, who acquired the property, to Ebenezer Hall, his brother, who bought of him the estate lately owned by Mrs. Thomas S. Harlow. In this deed the five foot passageway between the houses, as it now exists, is described. Isaac was employed by his brother, Benjamin Hall, a distiller, until January 27, 1775, when he was taken into partnership, and we find a record of the purchase of a distillery from Jno. Dexter by the firm. October 8, 1761, Isaac was married to Abigail, daughter of Ebenezer and Sarah (Cutter) Cutter of Medford, and he and his bride lived with the widowed mother until her death in 1785, in

here are many young journalists in Medford doing excellent work—Persis Hannah, Eleanor Ladd, Frank Lovering, Mortimer Wilber, Charles T. Daly, and others. Medford has reason to be proud of, and grateful to its Historical Society for putting into permanent form so much of the literary work of its members, setting aside the historical interest entirely. The fourteen volumes of the Medford Historical Register contain many valuable articles written by Miss Mary Sargent, James A. Hervey, Thomas S. Harlow, Lorin Low Dame, Abby Drew Saxe, Parker R. Litchfield, Benjamin F. Morrison, David H. Brown, Charles Cummings, Dr. Charles M. Green, Rev. Henry C. DeLong, John H. Hooper, Moses Whitcher Mann, Charles H. Morss, Myra Brayton Morss, Helen Tilden Wild, Anna D. Hallowell, Eliza M. Gill, Caroline E. Swift, William Cushing Wait, Walter H. Cushing, Fred H. C. Woolley, Benjamin Pratt Hollis, Herbert N.

excavations. The Register says (17 Register, p. 27), it had been called the Pit (gravel pit). As Mr. Hall owned more to the east than Dr. Swan did, no doubt this expression Pit applied to Lot J, and in some degree to Lots K and L. J—house of Benjamin Hall, Jr. (Dudley Hall). Built A. D. 1786. Excavation here also, but the north steep nicely terraced; steps leading up to large garden above on the north, and to cow barn northeast opening to Governor's lane. K—Eben Hall house (Mrs. Thomas S. Harlow) was a large three-story city house with, I think, brick ends. Built A. D.——. An absurd little back yard, mostly perpendicular; steps up to a part. Title too shoal to permit excavation very much northward. L—Isaac Hall house, built A. D.——. Three-story, back premises like K. Samuel Buell lived here about——. I knew his daughter Charlotte. She married and went to live in Schaghticoke, N. Y., near Troy. Dark granite and red gravel. These always came together. Whe
