John Hall Malphus was born in Beaufort District, S.C., about 1775, a son of John and Sylvania Malphus. His wife was named Sarah but her maiden name is unknown. They had six known children:

1. Williamb. 1796, m. Sarah -, Moved to Alachua County, Florida.
2. Maryb. 1797,m. James Joyce Leigh.
3. Edwardb. 1804, m. Elizabeth _.
4. Marthab. 1808?, m. - Bennett.
5. Elizabethb. 1812?, m. (unknown).
6. John H. Jr.b. 1820, m. Elizabeth Wainwright, dau. of James, Feb. 11, 1841. Moved to Alachua Co., Fla.

The earliest known Georgia residence of John Hall Malphus was in Liberty County where they lived before 1800. He and his wife were among the early members of Jones Creek Baptist Church which was organized in 1810, Mrs. Malphus died a member about 1820-1. Soon thereafter he moved with his family across the Altamaha River into the new county of Appling and was living there in the time of 1821 land lottery at which time he drew land. He had moved to Duval County, Florida, by Jan, 18, 1825, at which time he made a bill of sale, as a gift, to his children named above to eighteen head of cattle and his household goods, reserving a life estate in himself (deed book "I"; p, 89, Camden County).

Jones Creek Church records show he was excluded as a member Dec. 26, 1818, but was restored Oct. 22, 1825. The occasion of his restoration followed his application for membership shortly before in Pidgeon Creek Baptist Church in present Nassau County. The latter church wrote Jones Creek Church recommending his restoration and asking for his letter, saying that "he was leading an orderly Christian life more so than we do". He thereupon became a member of Pidgeon Creek Church and died a member.

His last years were spent in Camden County where he died about 1845.
