he served in the struggle for independence. No record is found there ofhis service; however, his widow Mrs. Nancy Hall, drew land in the Georgialand lottery in 1827 as the widow of a Revolutionary soldier, which is
accepted proof of his service. She drew Land Lot No. 388, 7th district
of Lee County, and possibly other lots. She was at the time a residentof Telfair County.

Lewis Hall was a lieutenant in the Revolutionary war and was woundedand taken prisoner and confined for some time in prison in Charleston, S.C. Later, he was exchanged and rejoined his command and served until theclose.
Mr. Hall was twice married. His first wife's name has not beenlearned. He had seven children by that, marriage.
Lewis Hall moved to Wilkson County in 1804 when it was first createdbut was there only a year, moving then to Tattnall County. TattnallCounty records show him as a juror in July, 1805 road-hand 1806, name inGrand Jury box 1810, granted tavern and liquor license by the InferiorCourt August 6,1810; granted 283 acres of land in 1811; he and Enoch Hallwere appointed asministrators of Thomas Hall, deceased, in TattnallCounty, War of 1812. He was commissioned a lieutenant in the MontgomeryCounty Militia, "Silver Bluff Company", Sept.3, 1798.
Mr. Hall died in Tattnall County in 1821. His will which wasoffered for probate was rejected by the Inferior Court, August 1, 1821,due to "informality and interlinations." There did not appear to be
any objection to its probate on the part of the heirs, court rejectingthe proferred will on its own motion. The will was never recorded.Thereupon, the widow and Instance Hall, the oldest son, applied foradministration August 1, 1821, and were appointed Nov. 28, 1821. Receiptsin full for their distributive shares of the estate were given by JehuHall, Jan 1, 1834, and George Wilcox on behalf of his wife, Sept. 7, 1835(see Deed Book "ABC", Page 419 Tattnall County), also by Enoch Hall,Lewis Hall, Jr., John A. Hall, Henry Cook in right of his wife, JamesKemp in right of his wife and Andrew O. Smith in right of his wife (seePage 276, said Book "ABC"). In the latter receipt which is dated Apr.21,1821 it is stated that they each take certain property given them bythe deceased in his lifetime, as full satisfaction for their respectiveinterests in the estate. No other receipts appear to have been recorded.
