Biography{{NZ parlbox header|nolist=true|align=right}}{{NZ parlbox|start = 1861 |end = 1862 |term = 3rd |electorate = {{NZ electorate link|Heathcote}} |party = Independent (politician) }}{{NZ parlbox footer}} He was born in Sculcoates, Yorkshire, in 1818. He married Agnes Emma Dryden c. 1850 in Kingston upon Hull.[1] He was the eldest brother of Sir John Hall.[2] John Hall married Rose Anne Dryden in 1861 at Kingston upon Hull; she was a sister of Agnes.[1] George and Agnes Hall emigrated to Canterbury in 1853, arriving on the Royal Albert; John Hall had emigrated a year before them.[1] The polling for the 1861 election in the Heathcote electorate took place on 12 February 1861. Hall and Edward Wakefield contested the election. Hall was a local resident with no prior political experience. Wakefield, on the other hand, came from a family of politicians. He had just been beaten in the {{NZ electorate link|Wellington}} electorate and then came to Heathcote, as the election was held later than in Wellington. Hall and Wakefield received 94 and 35 votes, respectively. Thus, Hall was elected to represent Heathcote in the 3rd New Zealand Parliament.[3] He represented the Heathcote electorate to 1862, when he resigned.[4] The resulting by-election was won by William Sefton Moorhouse. Hall died at his residence in Christchurch's Park Terrace on 27 February 1896 and was buried in the cemetery belonging to St John's church in Hororata.[2] References1. ^1 2 {{cite web |title=Hall brothers of the Mackenzie |url= http://www.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~nzlscant/hall1.htm |publisher=South Canterbury GenWeb |accessdate=20 April 2012}} {{s-start}}{{s-par | nz}}{{s-new | constituency}}{{s-ttl | title=Member of Parliament for Heathcote | years = 1861–1862}}{{s-aft | after = William Sefton Moorhouse}}{{end}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Hall, George W}}{{NewZealand-politician-stub}}2. ^1 {{cite news |title=Obituary |url= http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&cl=search&d=TS18960228.2.25.6 |accessdate=17 July 2010 |newspaper=The Star |date=28 February 1896|issue=5501 |page=2 }} 3. ^{{cite news |url= http://paperspast.natlib.govt.nz/cgi-bin/paperspast?a=d&cl=search&d=WI18610226.2.10 |title=Mr. Wakefield's Attempt to get Returned to the General Assembly for a Canterbury Constituency |volume=XVI |issue=1500 |date=26 February 1861 |publisher=Wellington Independent |page=4 |accessdate=26 April 2010}} 4. ^{{cite book |last= Wilson |first= James Oakley |title= New Zealand parliamentary record, 1840-1984 |edition= 4 |origyear= First ed. published 1913 |year= 1985 |publisher= V.R.
