Married: Sadie Hall

Children:

William Hall and his wife Sadie owned Hall Cottage, possibly one of the cottages that catered to African-American Patients. He was a caterer who had been the personal cook for Cardinal Gibbons of Baltimore; wherever the Cardinal traveled, Bill Hall went with him to prepare the meals — whether they be in lodgings or on a train. After Bill arrived in Saranac Lake, he built a solid reputation catering to many upper Park Avenue families.

And, at each year's end, Bill and Sadie would combine culinary forces and give a New Year's feast of ham, turkey, venison, roast beef, and all the trimmings and invited the whole neighborhood to the feast.
