GEORGE WHITFIELD HALL, a native of Franklin County, Ky., was born August
29, 1845.  He is the youngest of four children born to William and
Eloise (Freeman) Hall, natives respectively of Culpeper County, Va., 
and Anderson County, Ky.  His father, a son of Thomas Hall, was born in 
1783, and died in 1865.  Our subject's paternal great-grandfather was 
born in Scotland, and was one of the very oldest settlers in Franklin 
County, Ky.  George W. Hall was born on the farm, and at the age of 
seventeen entered Eminence College, where he remained three years and 
then completed his mathematical course.  In 1865 he went to Iowa City 
and became a clerk in the land office, but in less than a year returned 
home on account of his father's death.  He then resumed charge of the 
homestead, and has since followed farming, owning 426 acres in Franklin
County.  He married, October 5, 1869, Ruth W. Flanagan, of Clark County.
Her father graduated from West Point in 1827, in the same class with 
Albert Sidney Johnson.  Four children were born to this union: William 
F., born November 25, 1871; Annie H., August 18, 1876; Eloise, August 
19, 1881; Laura, October 18, 1883.  Mr. Hall was elected magistrate of 
the county in 1887.  He is a deacon of the Christian Church at 
Bridgeport.
