General Notes: Husband - Henry Hallam
About 1770 two brothers, William and Henry Hallam, cut off from ancestral inheritance by the laws of entail and primogeniture, sought to lay foundations by their own enterprise in a field of more promise and a wider range than England extended to the portionless scions of her gentry and nobility. Imbued with the broadest spirit of religious toleration, so deeply rooted in the institutions of Maryland, they first located in Hagerstown, in that colony. Both married and became heads of families. Henry settled in Virginia, William in South Carolina, and there became one of the largest planters of his day. Both adhered to the fortunes of the colonies, and became Revolutionary soldiers.
