Buried in the McClary Cemetery, Epsom, NH with his second wife, Mary Dowst. Died age 79-8-0.

In the 1936 town records on the death of his daughter Mary F. (married James Batchelder), his place of birth is given as Brookline, as it is also in the records of the death of his daughter Ellen M. (married Hill) and daughter Hannah (married Roberts, d. 1934).

George H. Yeaton in his Epsom memoirs writes: Benjamin Hall, who was born in England was the son of ? He died in Epsom January 10, 1884. Age 79 years 8 mo. If one were to go up the mountain road about one-forth of a mile distance, from the home of Flora D. (Hall) Sullivan the great granddaughter of Benjamin Hall, of England, they would find a small field on the west side of the highway it was at this place that Benjamin Hall lived. It has been handed down from his son Daniel H. Hall (Co.E, 11 Reg. N.H. Vol. Civil War) to his son Benjamin Hall and is now owned by the son of Benjamin, Max Hall.
All that is left to show where the original Benjamin Hall farm was, in the early days of the settlement of "New Portsmouth." is the house cellar partly filled. The remains of the foundation where the barn stood and the large lilac bush near the house cellar, in the small clearing.
At the date when this farm was one of the fertile and prosperous farms in this community, it consisted of twenty or more acres of land where the building were, together with eighteen or more acres on the opposite side of the highway, mostly field land in the eighteen acre trait.
Benjamin Hall first lived on Center Hill Road, as he bought a house and land there in 1830 before moving to the Mountain Road. Uriah Hall owned land on Center Hill Road, near the junction with Sanborn Hill Road about 1825, sold by his heirs in 1865.
Benjamin Hall of Epsom was born May 11, 1805, and despite the various places of birth given on records of his children (Brookline, NH, Brookline, MA and Brooklyn, MA), it can be presumed he was indeed born in Brookline, New Hampshire. One son, Daniel H. gives birth place as Tyngsborough, MA., and given the other associations of members of this family, could be an obvious error. No death location has been found for Uriah and his wife Hannah, and they may have spent their last years with one of their children, perhaps in Tyngsborough.


General Notes: Wife - Polly Wells

Buried in the McClary Cemetery, Epsom, NH near her son Hollis. Died age 33-6-0. A map made by Lewis Hill, a descendant, shows near the top of the Tarleton Road, a cellar hole which he labels as the birthplace of J.L. (James Lewis) and Polly Hall. There was, according to George H. Yeaton, a Wells family in this part of town, and based on census information, this would most likely be the homestead of Daniel Wells. The home passed to his son Samuel, who was still in town 1850 (census). There is no record of the death of Samuel, but his wife died in Epsom, NH. By 1858 (map) the property belonged to J.D. Langley.
