FamilyJane Hall married Peter Fearon in 1693 and had two sons by him, Isaac (born 1694) and Jacob (born 1696),[1] but continued to travel as a preacher.[2] Hell and predestinationAll her works are concerned with the argument that nobody is predestined to go to Hell. The first of her known works was Universal Redemption Offered in Jesus Christ: in Opposition to that Pernicious and Destructive Doctrine of Election and Reprobation of Persons from Everlasting (1693), from which it emerges that she believed in Hell, but not "that from Eternity, God did predestine or fore-ordain" any person to go there.[2][3] An encounter with Independent preachers declaring the opposite led Fearon to write her work Absolute Predestination not Scriptural: or Some Queries upon a Doctrine which I heard Preach'd, 1704. to a people call'd Independents, at Cockermouth in Cumberland. This appeared in 1705. It sets out to answer 48 queries about Bible passages to show that the choice of salvation lies within ourselves. A pamphlet retorting to this prompted her to release A Reply to John Atkinson's Pretended Answer to Absolute Predestination not Scriptural in 1709. This was to become her most widely read publication.[2][3] Jane Fearon died on 18 September 1737.[1] AftermathSeveral of Fearon's 22 works continued to be reprinted and adapted into the 1810s.[3] An adventure story ostensibly featuring Jane Fearon and entitled "Murder Prevented by the Interposition of Providence", appeared in The Literary Magnet (London, 1829).[4] Works
