142. LEMUEL GROSVENOR¹⁹ HALL, REV. (CHLOE¹⁸ GROSVENOR, EBENEZER¹⁷, EBENEZER¹⁶, JOHN¹⁵, WILLIAM¹⁴ GRAVENOR, GENT, WILLIAM¹³ GRAVENER, GENT, RICHARD¹² GRAVENOR, WILLIAM¹¹, ROWLAND¹⁰, WILLIAM⁹, JOHN⁸, JOHN⁷, HENRY⁶, THOMAS⁵, RICHARD⁴, RICHARD³ DE GRAVENOR, WILLIAM², ADAM¹) was born August 17, 1794 in Sutton, Worchester, Mass., and died April 09, 1864 in Racine, Wisconsin. He married HARRIET L. WELLS October 1832 in Hamburg, New York, daughter of TIMOTHY WELLS and ALMIRA.

Notes for LEMUEL GROSVENOR HALL, REV.:
Racine (Wisconsin) Democrat: " It seems fitting that the death of so good a man should be noticed by special words of remembrance and affection. On the 9th of April, there passed from our presence and fellowship, the spirit of a holly man, whose gentleness of manner, nobility of character, and modest worth endeared him to us all beyond the power of common men". "Mr. Hall was born in Sutton, Mass. He graduated at Brown University in 1820, and Andover Theological Seminary in 1824. He was licensed to preach by the Haverhill (Mass.) Association, Aug. 10th 1824. Ordained as a Home Missionary by the Association of St. Lawrence, N.Y." "Mr. Hall was never installed as Pastor of a church, but ministered faithfully and successfully to the following churches, and at the times named, as Stated Supply: "Presbyterian Church, DeKalb, N.Y., 1826-28; Arminsville, N.Y., 1828-29; Holland, N.Y., 1828-30; Hamburg, N.Y., 1830-32; Bethany, N.Y., 1832-33; Sparta, N.Y., 1833-34; Mount Morris, N.Y., 1834-35; Centerville, N. Y., 1836-38; Geneva, Wis., 1838-39; Virginia Settlement, Ill., 1839-46." "It was sometimes his privilege, as at Geneva, Wis., to organize these little churches to which he afterward ministered, and which have since become strong and self-sustaining." "We have often thought that the crown which awaits in Heaven, our self-denying and faithful Home Missionaries, who were willing to labor on in darkness and trial, in faith of a coming harvest, when, from those small beginnings, should grow large and influential churches, must be bright above the lot of others, and to the possession of such a crown has this pure and good man gone." " For twenty-two years before his death, he was unable, from a difficulty of the throat, to continue the work to which he was so sincerely attached." "The three years of his residence in Racine have been fitting close to his devoted life. He has waled among us, a man of God, in whose spirit there was no guile, and upon whose character there was no stain or shadow. To those who knew him best, he appeared as one who, while faithful to the duties of the present, has ever wistfully been looking for the dawn of Heaven and the summons that should call his waiting spirit home. The event of death was so fearfully sudden in its nature, that to one less prepared than he, it would have been a painful surprise, but it found him ready, without a regretful look at the past, or a distrustful loof into the future, he entered upon the glorious realization of the better and immortal life."
