My grandfather, William Hall was the first to come from England to the United States (Wisconsin) to earn funds to send back to grandmother, Lucy Hall, to come and bring the family consisting of John, little golden-haired Mary, Jane, my mother Ann, and William. When grandmother landed in the United States, she was handed a message saying that William Hall, her husband, had died!
Lucy Atkinson was my maternal grandmother's name. She had married William Hall who died in Wisconsin. Later, she married William Ambler. This Mr. Ambler served and died in the Civil War. Their oldest son, Robert Ambler, was born 24 Sep 1855 and died 31 Mar 1935 in Grangeville, Idaho. Their remaining children, Ellen Ambler, Lizzie Ambler, and Edwin Ambler all passed away about the year 1877. These were all in their teens and, I believe, scarlet fever and diptheria took their lives.
Grandma Ambler was born in England in 1822 and passed away near Traverse City, Michigan, 2 Apr 1889. She was a faithful Christian."
