Degrey/Hall Family Histories

My parents had a copy of a book of family histories, which I've slowly been transcribing. It was originally given to them from my grand-aunt, Norda Wright Benson, and was published in 1952, though it appears the histories were collected earlier, perhaps as late as 1947. It appears to have been compiled by an M.S. Wood, whom I believe is my second cousin, twice removed by marriage and may still be alive somewhere.

I had transcribed six of the histories when I made the acquaintance of one Victor Hall of Rockville, UT, -- another second cousin, twice removed -- who provided me with a CD that had all of them (and more!) transcribed. With his blessing, I've completed this particular collection, and will publish the remainder of what he sent to me in due time.

The Table of Contents is listed here, and you may follow the links to any history.
