John Hall ( - c.1722)

Minister and collector of manuscripts. On 14 June 1694, Hall was installed as curate in the churches at Guisbrough, Upleatham, and Fishlake (De la Pryme, 181, cf. CCEd ID: 134945). In his will dated 18 September 1722, being “sick in body,” Hall named a Thomas Perkins of Hatfield, his “loving brother,” as an executor (ibid., 305). Hall evidently married Thomas Perkins’ sister, Sarah. Hall had a son, also named John, who was fellow St. John’s College, Cambridge. He was ordained deacon in the church of St. Mary in Nottingham and priest at York Minster on 5 March 1721. He was installed curate in the church at Upleatham on 4 April 1722, but died prematurely that same year at age 26 (ibid., 181).
