Rev. Nathan Huston Hall, son of Rev. Randolph and Sally Hall, was born in Franklin County, Virginia, in 1782, and died at Columbia, Missouri, June 22, 1858. He went to Kentucky with his father and was converted in the great Presbyterian revival of 1801. Forsaking the Baptist faith of his father, he studied under the eminent Presbyterians, Rev. Joseph L. Wilson, D.D., and Rev. Thomas Clelland, D.D. and was licensed as a Presbyterian minister in 1805. In 1806 he was installed in his first charge of three congregations in Washinton County, Kentucky, where he remained for fifteen years. He then accepted the charge of the First Presbyterian Church at Lexinton, and remained for twenty-five years. In 1847 he resigned this post and traveled as an evangelist for some years over most of the states in the Mississippi Valley. In May, 1851, he removed to Missouri, and was appointed pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of St. Louis. He resigned this charge upon the death of his second wife, February 20, 1860, and removed to Booneville, Missouri, to be near his children who were living there. Later he removed to Columbia, Missouri, where he was pastor of the Presbyterian Church until his death. He was distinguised as a revival preacher, and as early as 1811 was one of the founders and supporter of the Kentucky Bible Society "which doubtless gave a powerfully directing influence to the organization of the American bible Society five years later, and of which it became an auxillary in 1817." When the Springfield and Washington County Bible Society was organized in January, 1817, Rev. Nathan Huston Hall was its president. He was chaplain of Lexington Chaper, No. 1, Royal Arch Masons, and took part in the fauneral honors accorded to Lafayette at Lexington, July 26, 1834.
