The desktop-published family history A Book
of Halls, authored by Marilee Gerrell Butler in 1996 and available
at Wakulla County Public Library, covers the Hall Cemetery situated east
of the upper
St.
Marks River. Access is by private roads. The approximate location is shown
on maps in the book. The site is there marked in the north half of Sec.
33, 2S,
2E, about midway of the east-west dimension
of the section, and about 11/2 mile or a little more southeast of Natural Bridge.
It is shown as only a few hundred yards north of the old east-west path of
the
Vereen-Fanlew Railroad (a spur off Tallahassee-St. Marks RR).
The cemetery is old. It is maintained
by Philip Gerrell. Confederate markers in the Hall Cemetery were obtained
by and placed in the cemetery by Lawson Gerrell.
There is a family story about Cap’t Daniel
Coleman, that, when he died of an infectious disease, his body was placed
in a wagon, covered with coal,
and brought back home. He was buried in the Hall Cemetery, his body still in
the wagon covered with coal. A fat lightwood stump (with a pine tree growing
in it) marks his grave. He was the brother of John Coleman.
