General Notes: Husband - Thomas Hallam


After marriage, he and his wife settled on the farm in Franklin township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. For a time they kept a hotel which stood on ground later called "Pancake." Later, having rented their farm, they moved to Wellsburg, West Virginia, where he had bought a ferry, which he ran for about a year. They then returned to Washington County. Mr. Hallam traded the "John G. Clark" farm in Franklin township for 1,500 acres in Ohio, whither he and his wife moved in 1828, and there he died, at the age of eighty-four years. He was very successful in all his undertakings, but died comparatively poor, having lost most of his property by going bail for others.
He participated in the Whisky Insurrection.
