1882 - 1952; married, 1910, Helen Macy; parents: Joseph Thomas Hall, Myra Garrison;

The Hall family lived at 99 High St. circa 1883-1889. The parents, Joseph Thomas Hall and Myra Isabelle Garrison had previously been living in Baltimore. The fact that the last known records for Joseph Hall are from 1880 and that son, Irving Kent was born in September 1881 would indicate that the elder Hall died in early 1881. The widowed Myra Garrison Hall then left Baltimore and moved to Jay Candler's 99 High St. home. She subsequently moved to Cambridge starting in 1892. In 1900, Irving was living with her there as he attended Harvard. He married Helen Macy in 1910 and was employed as a tea merchant in a New York firm run by his wife's father.
