George B HALL

                   This is the name that lead me to find the family of John M Hall and Eleanor.
He was listed in the Commerce Journal as attending his aunt's funeral in Commerce, Texas. (Mary Ann Randle Hall, wife of Barnabas.)  From this I knew that Barnabas had a brother.  I found his brother, William M Hall, in Cherokee Co., Alabama, with a son named George.  He was the correct age.  This lead me to find many other members of the Hall family.  George B. Hall became a judge in Commerce, Hunt, Texas.  He died before taking another term as judge.  He was alive 22 Aug 1924, but died before 1 Jan 1925.  See Commerce Journal articles.
