 * Delete. Another one of these WP:NOTDIRECTORY/WP:NOTEVERYTHING ("almost every clergy member in the Anglican Church of Ireland") articles from the creating editor. There are no sources provided (and seemingly none available) that are anything other than directory-style entries and similar passing mentions. There is insufficient biographical coverage to seemingly establish even the basic facts (DOB, POB, DOD, etc). To the extent that we cannot seemingly confirm the century in which the subject lived/died. If the subject's entire notability (as seems to be the case) is associated with their appointment to a specific role, then I do not see how independent notability (for a standalone article) is supported or justified.

 * Redirect to Archdeacon of Kilmacduagh per WP:ATD-R; archdeacons aren't inherently notable, and I concur with the above. ミラP@Miraclepine 02:39, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment -- We often do have articles on archdeacons in England and Ireland, perhaps because some have dictionary of national biography articles. It is probably safe to guess that he died in 1803.  We have a citation for Trinity College alumni (but not linked), which should provide some indication of his age.  Nevertheless probably NN.  Peterkingiron (talk) 18:13, 9 December 2023 (UTC)
 * The notability for archdeacons with DNB entries stems not from the position but (in some cases as one of several factors) from WP:ANYBIO#3. Otherwise, they still have to be notable through other criteria, and this is not the case for Hall, hence my !vote against an article. ミラP@Miraclepine 00:43, 10 December 2023 (UTC)
