who married Hester July 20, 1708, and had a family. He
probably had other children. Mr. Weaver writes that "there was
a Theophilus Hall who married Ruth Sargeant March 2, 1719-20,
but whether the son of Benjamin or William I am not certain."
(1-8). Benjamin Hall, son of Jonn Senior, removed first to
Harwich and afterwards to Mansfield, Conn., when he purchased
land Sept. 15, 1708, and was then called of M. He married Feb.
7, 1677, Mehitabel Matthews of Yarmouth. He died in Mansfield
Aug. 7, 1737, aged 93 years, and his widow Mehitabel Feb.
20, 1740-1, aged over 90. Little is certainly known respecting
his family. His children were probably all born in Harwich, and
the record is lost. He had a son Barnabas who married Mercy,
and had a family, the oldest born May 23, 1710 ; also a son Shebar,
who married Abigail and had a family, the oldest child born
June 13, 1711. Theophilus above named was perhaps his son.

in Yarmouth. He married Lydia, who died Feb. 23, 1723-4.

Barnstable family, and as Mr. Weaver of Williamantic, and Mr.
Paine of Harwich, are interested, I resign the labor to them.)
