"Alfred Hall was born in Windsor, Vt., February 20, 1804. He has passed his whole life in Windsor, and, with but one exception, is the oldest native resident in the town. His principal occupation has been farming. He owns and occupies the old Hall homestead. He was president of the Windsor Savings Bank for many years, has filled the positions of overseer of the poor and selectman twenty years each. He has been a trustee of the bridge company at Windsor, and its treasurer for many years. In politics he is a Democrat, having cast his first presidential vote for Andrew Jackson. Successful as a business man, a safe adviser, a genial, social disposition, Mr. Hall has always commanded the respect and esteem of the entire community in which he has passed a long life.

He married August 26, 1833, Catharine Morgan, born June 16, 1815, died October 15, 1869.
