The Daniel and Mary Barlow Hall Family
Daniel Hall was born September 11, 1819 in Bury, Lancashire, England. He was the son of Samuel and Alice Brown Hall. On October 13, 1840 Daniel married the lovely Mary Barlow in Radcliffe, Lancashire, England. Mary was the daughter of James and Pricilla Nuttal Barlow. Daniel and Mary had several children.
Daniel and his family were introduced to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. They eventually joined the Church and decided to emigrate from England to Utah. After crossing the Atlantic, they stopped in New York for a while before proceeding on to Utah. While they were in New York, they met another young British LDS immigrant named
Richard Sedgwick. Richard became a close friend of the Hall family. He eventually fell in love with and married Daniel's daughter, Mary Emma Hall.After some time, Daniel and his family were able to move on to Utah. They eventually settled in Bountiful, which is just a little north of Salt Lake City.
Daniel loved his new land. He applied for, and eventually received, United States citizenship.
When Richard and Mary Emma Sedgwick arrived in Utah, they settled next to Daniel Hall's family. Mary Emma had given birth to six children while they were in New York. She had two more children after they arrived in Utah.
On January 13, 1899, Daniel lost his sweetheart Mary to the sleep called death. Mary was buried in Bountiful Cemetery. Daniel died May 3, 1900 and was buried next to his wife.
