Seeking Connection, John Warren Hall family and Johnston , Byers families-Ontari
Family Mystery:
Book of “Zillia” May (Johnston) Hall, 1928
Given to me by my grandmother, Jean Carolyn Ingram-Hutchinson of Peterborough, Ont. Her mother was ZILLA RISPA BYERS, born in1868 and died in 1918, married Joseph Ingram.Given that Zilla Rispa is an unusual name I am trying to figure out how Zillia's family connects with mine.
Here are the notes from the Bible Readings book.
