In politics he took a lively interest, and at every election, whether municipal or parliamentary, he was a power. He was in his 74th year when he died and was mourned over not only by his family but by many to whom he had extended a helping hand in time of need.

General Notes: The eldest son of Joseph and Maria, John was born on the 31st July 1834 at Glenorchy in Tasmania and was christened 12th March 1837 at St. David's Church Hobart.

John did his early schooling at Glenorchy but at 12 years old his father enrolled him at Horton College. After finishing school John was apprenticed to a saddle and harness maker.

At 18 years of age he left Tasmania with his brother Thomas and father Joseph on the “Timbs” bound for the Victorian goldfields.

They returned in 1856 and it wasn't long before John and his brother Thomas opened a small butcher shop at the corner of Kensington Street and Main Road Glenorchy. Commencing in a modest way the business quickly prospered and expanded until as well as the butchery it embraced a bakery, grocery and general store. As the Perserverence Stores it was the largest business in the area north of Hobart.

At this stage the Hallam family were very involved with the Methodist Church in Glenorchy. The first marriage in the old chapel was Thomas Hallam and Ruth Holly on 29th July 1858. Ruth had only arrived in the colony two months earlier and was living with relatives at O'Briens Bridge.

In 1859 John met and married Eliza Mahala Wellard daughter of Samuel Wellard and Thirza Champion. Their first child
1.Fanny Theresa was born 23 February 1861. She grew up and married Manton Jackson the son of William Fisher Jackson and Mary Grant on the 23rd. February 1880.

2. Their next child Amy Maria Hallam was born on the 11 September 1863. Amy Maria married twice, first to Richard Heyward and then to Henry Evelyn Butler Hull who was the grandson of George Hull of Glenorchy.

3. John Alfred Hallam was born 17 August 1865 and died 21st. February 1933

4. Percival Ernest Hallam was born on the 4th October 1867 and first married Kate Drumm and after her death, Violet Mary Johnson.

5. Frank Rupert Hallam was born 5th December 1870 and married Ellenor Tier on the 23rd. December 1899. He eventually settled in New Zealand where there are many Hallam descendants today.

6. Harry Hallam was born 9th Jan 1877 and as a young man volunteered to serve his country and on the 27th March 1901 was sent to the Boer War. It wasn't long before he was promoted to sergeant of the Fourth (Second Tasmanian Imperial Bushmen Contingent). He was later promoted to Lieutenant. While he was at War conditions overseas must have appalled this young man because after the war he returned to the Sudan and became a member of the Slavery Repression Department. Harry lost his life in the Sudan and a memorial service was held in Hobart for him in March 1908

7 Elsie Mahala Hallam was born 8th December 1880. When she was 21 she made application to the Education Department to become a teacher. She later married Elson Bond.

When her youngest child was only three years old Eliza Mahala Hallam died 29th December 1883.

John Hallam next married Mary Foster who is listed as a spinster and housekeeper. John Hallam married Mary at his own home and eight months later their first child Leslie Foster Harding Hallam was born 28th July 1885. Victor Ernest followed closely and was born on the 21st. December 1886 with Charles Roy Hallam born 9th August 1888. Mary must have had complications with the birth of her last child as she passed away the following month on the 15th September 1888 with the baby passing away on the 1st. March the following year.

Eight months after the death of Mary John married Bertha Von Bibra. There were no children to this marriage.

At this stage John was a member of the local school board of Advice, was Superintendent of the Wesleyan Sunday School and was a local preacher.

In his role as Superintendent of the Sunday school John had the moulding of many young boys in the area whom he used to advise “Be a good student of Gods Word”. John Buckney who later was to become a

preacher himself spoke of John Hallam's spiritual personality in a letter to Harry Smith Secretary of the Church Trust at Glenorchy and how it was those early years in John Hallams Sunday school class that inspired him to enter the church.

The Hallam family were very involved with the chapel at O'Briens Bridge, Thomas Hallam used to send men from Millbrook to assist with fencing etc. John Buckney actually built the stables in Rev Bridgwoods
time (1895). He also put up the board fence on the Chapel Street side and spent many a Saturday afternoon repairing and puttying broken windows.

Joseph Hallam and his wife Maria with daughter Hannah and various other members of the Hallam family were buried at the Old Chapel.
Eliza Rosetta, wife of William Henry Hallam was later reinterred at Cornelian Bay around the same time as Martin Cash perhaps our most famous bushranger was reinterred. William Henry Hallam actually sat on the Board of Enquiry to find out why Martin Cash was refused entrance to the local hospital.

Florrie Alberta Hallam, daughter of Thomas Hallam and her husband Arthur Walter Dennis were the last couple to be married in the Old Chapel on 30th April 1908. Arthur Walter Dennis was later appointed Trustee at a Trust meeting held on the 14th. August 1919.

By the early 1900's the Chapel at O'Briens Bridge was no longer feasible and it was decided to build a new chapel in the area. On the 24th February 1910 a Memorandum of Gift was drawn up by John Hallam deeding to the Trustees of the Church at that time, namely the Reverend Vaudin, William Henry Hallam, John Buckney, John Cramp, Herbert Inches, Clarence Fremlin and Wilfrid Waterhouse, all that piece of land
comprising an allotment situated on the Main Road at Glenorchy. The original gift was for a sixty foot frontage but this was later extended by John Hallam to eighty feet.

The building of the new church was certainly a family affair with Johns' brother (William Henry) son in law (Clarence Fremlin) and William Henry's son in law (John Buckney) as trustees, John donating the land, Thomas Hallam supplying some of the bricks and William Henry's son Sydney Augustus receiving the princely sum of Five pounds for the cartage of 10,000 bricks at 8 shillings per thousand. John Buckney was also Secretary to the New Church Committee during the building of the new Church up until the time he left Glenorchy.

It was also at this time that the first of the stained glass windows was commissioned by the family for the church and Bertha Elizabeth, wife of John, wrote to Mr. Vaudin with her choice on May 21st. 1910.

The foundation stone for the new church was laid by John Hallam on the 16th April 1910. The church was opened on 5th October 1910 by Rev. F. Lade and this was followed by the dedication service on the 9th October

The Hallam family also have the distinction of having the first couple married in the new church. This was Daisy Holly Hallam daughter of Charles William Hallam and Catherine Baggott who married the Reverend Albert M. Horton on the 31st. May 1915.

William Henry Hallam served as Trustee until his death in 1920
