Notes
a. Note:   "Mrs. Elizabeth Ingersoll Hall was a descendant of Rev. Jonathan Edwards and possessed many of his superior characteristics, nor was her daughter born without these excellencies." Quoted from family records by Joseph Dewey Hulbert (in memory of Lucinda Chadwick Hall) in possession of (in 1946) Mary Lucinda (Haskell) Dickinson, Rancho Palo Bonito, Cornville, AZ.
  Elizabeth Ingersoll came with her husband, James Hall, to Ashtabula on her bridal trip in a one-horse covered wagon, covering a part of the distance from Buffalo to Ashtabula on the ice of Lake Erie.
  The home in Ashtabula built by James Hall served as a terminus of the Underground Railway for escaping slaves from the South making their way north to Canada.
  The following paragraph is from "Pioneer Women of The Western Reserve: Ashtabula" reprinted in Family Tree Maker CD#450 County and Family Histories: OH, 1780-1970.
  "Mrs. Hall's home, ever open to the needy, was the rendezvous for the escaping slave in antebellum days. It was on Walnut Street at the harbor, and from there, fugitives were aided to Canada by boat. Mrs. Hall was granddaughter of Rev. Jonathan Edwards of Yale College, and mother of Dr. Perry Hall of Ashtabula. Another of her five children, Lucinda Hall, wife of Joseph Dewey Hulbert, a woman of sweet and refined nature and rare amiability, remained to follow in her mother's footsteps in all her loved characteristics. For many years president of the Congregational Society, she was the central figure around which the ladies loved to cluster. The old homestead is yet occupied by Mr. Hulbert, who is one of the pioneer business men of the town."
