    Excerpted from Descendants of William Hall of Newport and Portsmouth, RI:
    "Dinah HALL (3/30/1785, Hancock, MA-2/1871 Lorraine, NY) m. Jonathan REMINGTON (1/5/1784-5/2/1861). Dinah Hall married Jonathan Remington, the Jefferson County NY Journal called the Remington family, "A family of good old New England stock." The couple left Hancock, MA for the newly opened settlement in New York State called the Black River Wilderness territory. They were among the earliest settlers in early 1800, when the forest supplied the raw material and the axe was their principal tool! The couple chose the fertile land in the hill country for their homestead called Highland Farm. Jonathan was a prosperous farmer and Dinah was an expert at weaving along with knitting, her favorite was adding intricate patterns to the linen she had made. Jonathan was a volunteer in the War of 1812 along with his brother Noel and Dinah's brother, Thomas Hall. The couple lived out their long lives on Highland Farm in Lorraine, New York, having raised their 7 children to adult hood. The farm remained in the family for 4 generations, until it was sold in 1915."
