James Hall 1821 - 1873

The Hall family is related to the Chisholm family through the marriage of James's granddaughter, Mary and Samuel Chisholm in 1914.

The Hall family lived in the border area of south east Scotland.

I found a record of James's birth and his marriage to Catherine Campbell in the OPR indexes on the scotlandspeople website and his death certificate on the same site.

I also have information regarding this generation of the Hall family from family relatives.

Catherine Campbell was living in Strachur, Argyleshire when John was born in 1849 and she appears in the 1851 census for Strachur. John Hall is also on the Strachur census but living with an uncle. There is no sign of James Hall in Strachur in 1851.
By 1861, the family are living together in Channelkirk, Lauder, Berwickshire
