Maude Hall and a twin sister were born to Abram and Susan (Bender) Hall on Aug 6, 1871, in Wheatland, Iowa. Their mother died six months later leaving the twins and four other children ranging from two to eight years in age. Caring for six young children was too daunting for Abram and Susan’s sister and her husband agreed to take the twins.
Later that spring, Abram met Christine (Bender) and John Feath, in Chicago. They took the babies with them back to their home in New Washington, Pennsylvania. One of the twins, Grace, died later that year. The older children remained with their father and grew up in Wheatland, Iowa. (Later, he remarried and had seven more children.)
Maude remained in Pennsylvania with her aunt and uncle and received a teaching certificate at Indiana Normal Teachers College. She taught in several Pennsylvania communities and also taught for a time in Davenport, Iowa. She never married and lived to be 93 years old.
