Among the early New England colonists there were five persons by the name of Hull, or Hulls, as it was then spelled, who are supposed to be brothers, and came from Derbyshire, England. Their names w~re John, George, Richard, Joseph and Robert. John Hulls was made freeman by the Gen­ eral Court of Masf;. in 1632; was Captain of the Artillery Co.; died in 1670. George Hulls, of Dorchester, Mass., was freeman in 1633; was representative to the Gen'l Assembly; moved to Connecticut and was Ass' t Governor of that State Richard Hulls was made a freeman in 1634 ; sold his house in Roxbury to Philip Sherman, in 1637; moved to New Haven, Conn., in 1639. Joseph Hulls of Hing­ ham, was freeman in 1638; representative to Gen'l Assembly of Mass., in 1638-39. The town of Hull, Mass., is said to have been named after him. Robert Hulls, of Boston, was freeman in 1637; he died in 1666; his son John, was free­ man in 1649; he was a goldsmith and a highly respected citizen of Boston ; his children all died Pxcept Hannah, who married Judge Samuel Sewall, Chief ..Justice of the Province, in 1676. He (John) became Treasurer and master of the Mint, in 1652; he died in 1683, leaving a large estate·; when Hannah was married, her father put her on the scales and balanced her weight with silver coin, for her dowry. A Josiah Hull, married Elizabeth Loomis, in 1641; she was

3 daughter of Joseph Loomis-} osiah was Jeputy .to the Gen­ eral Court, in 1659-60-62; he moved to Killingworth, Conn., in 1662; ,vas deputy from that town, in 1-667; he died in 167 5. In the Genealogy of_ the Loomis family, there appear the names of 1150 descendants of Jo~iah and Elizabeth Loomis '- Hull. There is a good deal of information about these fan1ilies ,vhich is not noted in this record, the design being to compile a record of the descendants of Richard Hull only. The original intention was, to record only the lineal an­ cestors of Rev. Leverett Hull, for the benefit of his descend­ ants. So much data was obtained of the collateral lines, that it was determined to arrange in as compact a form .as possible, all the facts learned about the various lines of Richard's descendants, 1n order to preserve the same, to assist any one among such descendants, who might wish to write a genealogy of the Hull Family. The Record though incomplete, represents a great deal of labor and study and is the result of extended examination of town histories, numerous family records and genealogies, and extensive correspondence with descendants of Richard and with town and church clerks in various parts of the country.

Some of the patties, corresponded ,vith, have lived in Wal- lingford or Cheshire all their -lives and have heard from their parents and grandparents, the family traditions prevailing in those towns. It has happened in several instances that different birth dates have been given by different authorities, for the same

4 individual. In these cases the dates which have the prepond­ erance of evidence are here given. The system of numbering is as follows: Beginning with Richard, the names are all numbered con­ secutively, his oldest child being numbered 2 and so on. This consecutive number in1mediately precedes each name, and immediately preceding this consecutive number, appears the number of the father of that person, so that each line can be traced back to Richard by the numbers. The different families in each generation are separated by a single red line across the page. PUELLA F. (HULL) MASON. Milwaukee, August 13th, 1894.

The town record.<: of Walliairford, show that Zephaniah married Hannah Doolittle, and still stronJ;?"er proof of this is found in the fact that Zephaniah's son Andrew. li'\"ed with :Moses Doolittle and inherited the latters property. as bis grandson. and li'\"ed there until he died-and his descendants still li'\"e on this property. and they also state that Dr. Zephaniah married Hannah Doolittle.

88-162 Lieut. Joseph, born in Derby in r750; married for his second wife, widow Nichols, mother of Rev. Charles Nichols; Joseph entered the army in 1776, as Lieut. of Artillery; was taken prisoner at Fort Washington; is said to have shown great gallantry in the defense of this fort; he was not exchanged until 1778; after his

22 exchange he again entered the army. In 1779 he was given command of a flotilla on Long Island Sound, consisting of several old whale boats, fitted out to annoy the enemy as opportunity offered. On one occasion a British armed schooner was lying in the sound; Joseph proposed to go out and take the schooner; that evening 20 men, under his command, embarked in a boat similar to those used in carrying wood-the boat had the appearance of being loaded with wood­ as they approached the schooner, the sentry on deck hailed Hull, who was steering; he answered the call but continued his course 'till quite near the schooner, when by a sudden movement, he ran close alongside; all hands sprang aboard the schooner; the British capt. aroused by the firing of the sentries, came on deck and was shot dead. The hatches were fastened down and the schooner conducted in triumph to :Derby. '' This gaiiant soldier was the father of Commodore Isaac Hull. He engaged early in life in the West India trade and became familiar with a seaman's life as well as that of a farmer. During his most active career, the whale fishery was carried on in the Sound in open boats, manned by four or six oarsmen, a steersman and a harpooner. This was a most dangerous calling, requiring a high degree of skill and perfect drill and unity of action. In this school his son Isaac took his first lessons in seamanship. One day Isaac was enter­ taining a party of ladies with a sail on the river, in one of his father's whale boats, when a sudden squall capsized the boat. By almost superhuman effort Isaac succeeded in saving the whole party of eight or ten ladies.''

23 Joseph's coolness and presence of mind as well as fearlessness is shown in the following anecdote: While on his way to New Haven, just as he came to the top of the hill in West Haven, he saw some British officers advancing towards him; turning in his saJdle he motioned as if for his company to hasten, and riding forward, commanded the British to surrender, they supposing the enemy to be near at hand, delivered up their swords.

88 -163 Gen'l William, born in 1753 at Derby; entered Yale college when 15 years old and graduated in his 20th year; was elected captain of a Derby militia company; he was prep;uing to join Col. Webb's regiment, when his father died, leaving him considerable property; he refused to take any of it, saying, •' I want only my sword and uniform." He joined his regiment at once and marched to Cambridge. The next year the regi­ ment took possession of Brooklyn Heights. Gen'l \Villiam was an intimate friend of Capt. Nathan Hale. At the personal request of Washington, Capt. Hull ,vas made acting field officer during the battle of Trenton and was soon afterward pron1oted by Gen'! Washington, to be major of the 8th Mass. He was also engaged in the battle of Princeton and many of the most important battles 6f the war; was promoted very rapidly for bravery and effective service. He held many positions of trust after the war. In 1776, he was appointed Major-General of ]\llassachusetts n1ilitia; in 1805, was appointed governor of Michigan and held that office until 1812, when he was appointeJ to command the North western army. He was greatly

24 censured for the surrender of Detroit and after a court martial, was condemned to death. The sentence was withdrawn by the President on account of "Gen'l Hull's brilliant services during the war of the Revo­ lution." Gen' l Hull clain1ed, that the blan1e for the surrender did not attach to him, but to the authorities at Washington. His personal papers and effects had been lost or destroyed and he was not able to prove his assertions until twelve years later, whP.n he ob­ tained access to the papers and records of the War Department at Washington. These showed plainly that he had been the victim of a series of misunder­ standings and complications arising from incompetency at Washington. He published an account of the cam­ paign, viewed in the new light of these re~ords, and was fully vindicated and received a tardy recognition from the government. Happily, he lived long enough to know that he had been completely exonerated, and to enjoy the consideration due to his valuable services. He married Sarah Fuller, of Newton, Mass. He died in 1825, November 25th. His wife died in 1826. She was born in 1759 and was a daughter of Judge Abraham Fuller and Sarah (Dyer) Fuller. Abraham was a son of Lieut. Joseph Fuller and Sarah (Jackson) Fuller. Lieut. Joseph was a son of Joseph Fuller, born in 1652, and Lydia (Jackson) Fuller. Lydia Jackson was daughter of Edward Jackson and Eliza­ beth Newgate, his wife, a daughter of John Newgate, who was the son of Philip Newgate who married Joan de Hoo.
