The Danenberg Family

Charles Hall b. 1890

Peter's great-grandfather.

Also recorded as Charles Henry Hall.

Charles Hall was born in 1890 in Texas, United States2,3. He married Susan May McCabe on 17 Aug 1917 (according to the family's 2015 tree)28. He died, probably 12 Sep 1961 (VA index card; unconfirmed, see note)29; place unknown.

Note on the date of death. The date 12 Sep 1961 comes from one record, the VA index card29, and is not confirmed. Date from the VA Master Index card only (Q5GN-L53Z), where it is the same day and month as his birth (9/12), so a clerical echo is possible. No place. No 1961 death was found on FamilySearch for a Charles Hall b. 1890-91 in CA, OR, WA or TX (queries in the README), nor in the Washington State Digital Archives death records (Charles Hall, 1955-75: none; the WA death index has a gap 1961-64). An online family tree says only that he died5.

Born1890Texas, United States
Preferred version: The VA Master Index card (12 Sep 1890), the 1920 census (age 29), and his children's 1919–1922 birth certificates agree on 1890; the 1917 draft card's 1891 is a one-year understatement.2,3

On the corrected list of men called for service (order no. 10). The same article says all single men were denied exemption, which fits the draft card's 'single'. The list gives his address as El Portal, as the 27 Jul and 18 Aug lists do; the board itself sat at Mariposa.12

Inducted with the first Mariposa contingent: he left Mariposa on Wednesday 19 Sep 1917 for training at Camp Lewis (Pierce Co., WA), home of the 91st Division. This independently corroborates the VA master index card (FamilySearch Q5GN-L53Z): '316 MP / 91st Div'.13

Possible records (not confirmed)

Records that may concern him, but don't settle it: an initial and a surname only, a family recollection, or a reading that needs a second look. Each links to the record.

  • Residence 1940 Camarillo Judicial Township, Ventura County, California: Age 50, born Texas, single, 1935 residence blank. Camarillo is the site of the state hospital.30 Age and birthplace fit, but he is 'single' and nothing else ties him to us. Recorded only so it is not re-checked blind.
  • Death 1961-09-12: Date from the VA Master Index card only (Q5GN-L53Z), where it is the same day and month as his birth (9/12), so a clerical echo is possible. No place. No 1961 death was found on FamilySearch for a Charles Hall b. 1890-91 in CA, OR, WA or TX (queries in the README), nor in the Washington State Digital Archives death records (Charles Hall, 1955-75: none; the WA death index has a gap 1961-64). Find…29 One index card, which records the VA's notice of death. Consistent with Susan's 'separated' in 1950. It contradicts her 'widowed' in 1940, but that answer looks like a cover for a separation.
  • Other: Parents not found. 1900 and 1910 censuses, Comanche County TX (exact-place filter): 75 Hall index entries in 1900 and 45 in 1910, none a Charles/Charlie/Henry of the right age. Texas, Comanche County Records 1858-1955 (collection 1831470): 315 Hall entries read, no Charles Henry. Henry Hall b. Sep 1892 in Comanche Co. is Henry Thomas Hall, son of Roland (QGN4-PMZ6): not ours. Neighbouring…31 Negative result. The family may have left Comanche before 1900, or the boy may be indexed under another name (e.g. 'Henry', 'C. H.', 'Charley').

    Age 29 on 7 Jan 1920 (1920 census). His son's 1946 marriage return gives his birthplace as Texas.

  3. Certificates of Live Birth: Margaret Ellen Hall (1919), Charles Henry Hall (1920), Catherine Hall (1922), State file numbers 146-1919-001182, 146-1920-001664, 146-1922-001501; issued 2026-10-26.
    FATHER'S NAME: CHARLES HENRY HALL / FATHER'S PLACE OF BIRTH: TEXAS / FATHER'S AGE: 28 YEARS — 29 YEARS — 31 YEARS

    All three of his children's Washington birth certificates give the father's birthplace as TEXAS and his age: 28 (Jan 1919), 29 (Jun 1920), 31 (Feb 1922). Those three ages agree on a birth between June 1890 and February 1891, so they support the VA index card's 12 Sep 1890 over the El Portal draft card's 12 Sep 1891.

    Charles Henry Hall | 25 | El Portal California | September 12th 1891 | Natural born citizen | Comanche Texas U.S.A.

    Born 12 September 1891 at Comanche, Texas, as he gave it himself on his WWI draft card (5 June 1917, El Portal, Mariposa Co., California): 'September 12th 1891', 'Comanche Texas U.S.A.'. The VA Master Index card has 'Born 9/12/90' (the same day and month), and the 1920 census age (29 on 7 January 1920) also points to 1890.

    Is he the WWI registrant Charles Henry Hall, b. 12 Sep 1891 Comanche TX (El Portal CA, 1917)? Yes (confirmed 2026-11-04). (1) The VA card links a Charles Henry Hall, b. 12 Sep [1890], to Vancouver WA and to a 91st Division unit; (2) there are only two Texas-born Charles H. Halls b. 1890-91 in the 1920 census: ours (Vancouver) and one in Pilot Point, Denton Co., TX, who was married with a son Charles H. b. 1916 (MHT4-91L), so he cannot be the single man of Jun 1917 in California; (3) no WWII 1942 card for a Charles H. Hall b. 12 Sep 1890/91 (collection 1861144), and no 1930/1940 census entry that could be him with another family.
