Following Mr. Hall's death in 2004, Mrs. Hall moved to Williamsburg where she continued to live independently, still working hard gardening, canning and cooking for others.
Mrs. Hall was preceded in death by her husband, Thomas R. Hall, Sr. and one grandson, Thomas R. Hall, III. She is survived by her two sons, Thomas R. Hall, Jr., wife Barbara of Tyner, NC, and Robert E. Hall, wife Esther of Suffolk, VA; two daughters, Eunice H. Ligon, husband John of Williamsburg, VA, and Frances H.

I only knew Mrs. Hall when I was a small child. She was very close to my grandparents, Alvan and Elizabeth Shriner. I have found many pictures of "Annie Virginia" (as my grandmother called her) from the 30's and 40's and would be happy to scan and forward if this is something you would want. My deepest sympathies.
