History
Lyman Hall, formerly Governor of Georgia and a signer of the Declaration of Independence, died on October 19, 1790, in the 67th year of his age. He was remembered as a uniform patriot in the cause of America, affectionate and tender as a husband and father, and above all as a true Christian and an honest man. He was mourned by his widowed wife. After Georgia removed his remains to Augusta and erected a monument to his memory, the tablet that had originally covered his grave was presented in 1857 by William D'Antignac to Hall's native state, by whose order it was deposited in his native town.
