FAMILY: Next of kin was Mrs. Mary “Mae” Hall Goulding (1880-1950), an aunt of 300 Carroll Avenue, Bridgeport. She had two brothers, Wesley (1883-?) and Charles (1894-?). It is likely that Wesley was Private Hall’s father because Charles’s birth year is too close to Private Hall’s. Nothing else was found.

OTHER: Worked as a Hatter and an electrician before entering the service. More than likely related to the Spanish Influenza outbreak.
