Adeline Hall indoors
ADELINE SUSANNAH (BOBLETT) HALL was born on September 23, 1844 in Dayton, Ohio. She lived with her parents for a while in Indiana, where her mother died. The surviving family then moved to Iowa. Adeline served as a nurse during the Civil War, then moved to Kansas where she became a schoolteacher. There she met James Knox Polk Hall and married him on January 31, 1869. They had three children: a daughter, Sharlot (b. 1870); a son, John (died in infancy in 1872); and a son Edward (b. 1874).
Adeline, James, and their surviving children moved to Yavapai County, Arizona, in 1882, where they homesteaded land they later renamed Orchard Ranch. Adeline spent the rest of her life as a ranch wife, taking pride in her daughter’s budding accomplishments as a writer and poet. She died on August 12, 1912. Her body was cremated, and her ashes interred in the Simmons section of what is today the Pioneer’s Home Cemetery.
