Robert Hall (1867-1949) was a founding member of the Royal Australasian Ornithologists Union (RAOU) in 1901, and served as its President 1912-1913. He made an expedition to Siberia, via Japan and Korea from 1903, with R. E. Trebilcock, to discover the hitherto unknown breeding grounds of various species of waders. His published works include "A Key to the Birds of Australia and Tasmania" (1899), and "Australian Bird Maps" (1922).
