Thomas(ine) Hall
Thomas Hall, born Thomasine Hall (c.1603〔Norton, Mary Beth, "Communal Definitions of Gendered Identity in Colonial America", Ronald Hoffman, Mechal Sobel, Fredrika J. Teute (eds) ''Through a Glass Darkly: Reflections on Personal Identity in Early America'' (University of North Carolina Press, 1997), pp. 40ff. Hall said she moved to London at the age of twelve and chose to change gender in 1625, ten years later.〕 – after 1629), was an English servant in colonial Virginia whose alternation between male and female attire and mannerisms provoked public controversy in 1629. At various times, Hall used the names Thomas and Thomasine and presented as male or female depending on the work or sexual partner he desired. The local community responded to his inconsistent gender with a physical inspection by several neighbors, and the case reached the Quarter Court at Jamestown, which ruled that Hall was both a man and a woman. It ordered him to dress in male and female clothing simultaneously. The decision was the first of its kind in early modern colonial history.
Because of the indeterminate and shifting nature of Hall's gender, Hall's given name is typically written as "Thomas(ine)" or "Thomas/ine" in scholarly literature on the case.
==Early life==
According to Hall's own account, she was born and christened Thomasine Hall in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. Hall was raised as a female and became skilled at traditional women's crafts, such as needlework. When Hall was twelve, her mother sent her to London to live with her aunt. She lived there for ten years and observed the popularity among the aristocracy of crossover male and female fashion. These trends may have influenced her to break away from social norms.〔
As a young adult in the early 1620s, Hall decided to change her self-representation from female to male. Hall adopted a man's hairstyle and "changed into the fashion of a man" in order to follow her brother into the all-male military service.〔 He introduced himself as Thomas for the first time at the age of 24 and served in the military in England and France.〔 Hall returned home and hoped to return to needlework and other female social conventions, so she reverted to the lifestyle of Thomasine.〔
