Angie Hall’s parents died when she was young and she lived with her Hall grandparents Martin V. Hall and Mary Frances (Tipton) Hall. Martin V. Hall was the son of Martin Hall and Elizabeth (Brock) Hall. Mary Frances (Tipton) Hall had two children Leslie and Ulyses and Angie is from the Leslie Hall line. Martin Hall was the son of Milly (Unknown) Hall and Edward Hall.

Angie Hall married George Ginter, a merchant of College Hill. He was the son of George and Liza McKinney Ginter whose father operated an iron furnace in Estill County, Kentucky. While the furnace was being fired, word was received of the death of a son. The process stopped and the furnace is still sealed. This ended the making of any more iron by ruining the furnace.
