John H. Hall (1838-1908) was born in Portland, Maine, and died in Tamworth, New Hampshire. He worked as a carpenter and a contractor, and he was chosen to build a summer home for President Grover Cleveland in Tamworth. Hall was a practicing Quaker. He married Anna F. Hoag in Windham, Maine, in 1860. Hall wrote to Mary Baker Eddy in 1886, inquiring whether there were any students in Portland whom she could recommend. Based on the records available, we have found no further information concerning his involvement with Christian Science.
