William Hall, son of John Hall and Allegonda Boom / Hall married Dorothy Gray Jackson, daughter of Robert Jackson and Ann Teresia Hobart Rawleigh. I'm directly descended from this marriage, and so are all the current descendants of Christian Boom that I know about (except for the branch leading to the Nunes family mentioned in the chapter “Godparents”). So this is the trunk of the family tree, there are roots, but all the branches spring from this trunk. They had many children, but not at quite the same frantic pace as Allegonda and the Mallard daughters. Apart from baptism and burial details, all that I have on their family comes from the Family Register.
Their children were:
William Hall b. 21 Jan 1770, bap. 24 Feb 1770, d. 26
Aug 1827

William and Dorothy had some slaves, more than most family members but nowhere near as many as Dorothy's father Robert Jackson. The slaves of William Hall baptised on 15 Jan 1809 in St Andrew were:
William Hall (40 yo), Mary Hall (25 yo), Sarah Boom (25 yo), Margaret Lubin (6 yo), and Ann Stamp (2 yo).
You can see how some slaves were named after family members. The slave Sarah Boom is not actually Christian's defacto (wrong age), just named after her.
I recently found an illegitimate child of William Hall in the Port Royal Parish register, entered late, out of date order:
Aldegunda Hall, to William Hall & Mary Silburn, bap. 20 Sep 1800, b. 29 Oct.
So, a THIRD extra-marital relationship between a Hall man and a Silburn woman. Mary's race is unstated, but the others - Teresa and Anne - were coloured.
