After the family came to Ripley she married John Hall of this place, Rev. J. G. Ripley performing the ceremony. She and her good husband resided in Ripley throughout their lives, Mr. Hall preceding her in death a few years ago. the following children survive her: Glen, Vail, Don, Hazel, and Iona Hall, Mrs. Mary Enoch, Mrs. Ella Harpold and Mrs. Martha Maddox.
