Notes for Floyd Hall
His WWI draft registration card, issued in 1917/1918 (the images on Ancestry do not show the side of the card that has the date it was filed), says Floyd Hall, age 24, residence Bangor, Ky, born 19 Feb 1893, occupation farmer, self-employed, married with wife and two children.
His gravestone has the dates Feb 19, 1892 - Sep 28, 1963. I do not know which date is correct.

Notes for Almeda “Meda” Rae Reed
Her obituary in the Rowan County News of June 30, 1949 says “Mrs. Almeda Ray Hall, 53, born July 1, 1895 at Scranton, was fatally burned Sunday at her home at Franklin, Pa. She was building a fire and mistook gasoline for kerosene. She married Floyd Hall, who survives, on July 20, 1912. Six children survive: Murvel, Erwel, Frederick and Maxine, all of Rockland, Pa., Mrs. Barney Lykins of South Charleston, Oh., and Mrs. Mitchell Lawson of Middletown, Oh. Also a sister, Mrs. Jess Mynhier of Clearfield and a brother, Joe Reed of Crown, Ky.”
Her stone beside her husband Floyd gives her date of birth as July 1, 1896, and spells her name as Almeda Rae. The 1900 census lists her as age 2, born June 1898.
