Query #163 – Desmond Bernard Hull, of Worthing, co. Sussex, England, and Picton, Ontario, Canada: Hello fellow Hulls, My name is Steven Patrick Hull, son of Desmond Bernard Hull of Worthing, Sussex, England. I am attempting to create a family lineage tree here in North America (Canada and United States) just to see how many of us are now living in North America. My father immigrated to Canada in 1953 and I was born in 1955, in a small town called Picton, Ontario, Canada. I have two sisters, one older and one younger and we are the only members of the Hull family living in Canada from my father’s family. I know other Hulls live here but none others from his immediate family.
I would appreciate any help in this matter and perhaps my information from England would help in yours. Perhaps we really are related. Wouldn’t that be something? Thanks for taking your valuable time in responding to my query.

Query #160 – Marguerite Celia Hull m. Clarence Raymond Crique–Newark, Essex Co., NJ: My name is Jason Cagle, from Jacksonville, FL. My father’s mother is the daughter of Clarence Raymond Crique and Marguerite Celia Hull of Newark, Essex Co., NJ. I have hit the proverbial “brick wall” in both the Crique and Hull sides of the family in my genealogical research.
What I have on the Hull side is from a 1910 Federal Census, in Newark, Essex County, NJ. The head of the house was Margaret Hull (age 37, wid., b. NJ, both parents b. NJ); daughter: Marguerite [Celia] Hull (age 19, b. ca. 1881); and 2 sons Raymond (age 17, b. ca.1893) and George (age 16, b. ca.1894). My grandmother says that, though she didn’t know her uncles well, she knew that she had two and the names sound familiar.

My other sources are Ancestral Charts on Ancestry.com that list Hezekiah Smith married to a Sarah Hull.

Query #139 – Samuel Hull Wife Grace Lytton: I have been working on Samuel Hull and Grace Lytton. I need to find who their parents were and their children. I thought I was doing so well with this family. I do have children for them. And then I hit a wall. I had Capt. Joseph Hull and wife Eliza Clark as Samuel parents. This Joseph had a son Joseph (father of Isaac Hull), William and Samuel. There may be more children but these three are all I have. The errors that I have seen have Samuel Hull and wife Charlotte Philips as the son of Joseph and Eliza Clark Hull. I need to get my notes out and explain how they are related to me; I think Samuel Hull and Grace Lytton are my 4 great grandparents. Since this is my first time asking a question, I will add more later. I wanted to see if I got a reply. I thought this family may go back to Dr. John Hull who we thought was the son of Richard Hull and his wife Agnes. I will appreciate any information. I have over a thousand names in my Family Tree Maker. We work on the family in the summer, have taken photos of hundreds of tombstones and check obits. It has been such interesting work. And we love doing it. I have many notebooks full of information, but there is never an end.

Query #137 – Warren Hull & brother Lorin/Lorain/Loring Hull–Berkshire Co., MA–Bloomfield, Ontario Co., NY: I’m working as a research consultant for the foundation that is developing the historic site of Hull House in Erie Co., NY, built by Warren Hull (1762–1838). I am now seeking info on Warren Hull’s next younger brother, Lorin (a.k.a. Lorain and Loring). I am interested in the latter because he moved to Bloomfield, Ontario Co., New York, about 1793 with a community group from Berkshire Co., MA. He is said to have died soon after, but I think he had been married for some time, and I wonder if anyone has a list of offspring for him.
Warren Hull stated in his Revolutionary pension application that he lived in Bloomfield for some time (no more than four years based on chronology). Knowing more about Lorin’s family might help to suggest reasons for this move and maybe the move on west, too. While I’ve found mention of him in Ontario County histories and a census record for 1790 in West Stockbridge, Berkshire Co., MA, I have not found anything more about his family. Lorin is said to have married a daughter (possibly named Lucy) of Deacon John Adams. Lorin’s death date, without citation, is noted as 1792 in several sources. The 1790 census finds Lorin in West Stockbridge, Berkshire Co., MA, apparently married, possibly with two daughters, but that’s a guess based on three females in his household. I do not find birth records there. In 1792, he would have been barely 28, so old enough to have had children and have married. Thank you.

Query #134 – Richard & Mercy Hull Hunt – Joseph Hull & Susanna Stelle – Sussex Co., NJ: I have just recently solved a long-standing mystery in one branch of my family. I have found documents proving that my ancestor, Mary Griggs, born 11 Jan 1814, Sussex Co., NJ, was the daughter of John S. Griggs and Kezia Hunt. One document states that her grandfather was Richard Hunt, while others indicate that her father was Samuel Hunt.
I have found several older genealogy books which state that Richard Hunt’s wife was Mercy Hull—one of these is The Hull Family in America. These older books have no source citations. Is there any actual documentary proof that Richard’s wife was Mercy Hull? Or any proof that her parents were Joseph Hull and Susanna Stelle? There is other information in the book relating to Samuel Hunt, son of Richard Hunt and Mercy Hull, for which I have thus far not located proof. I do not normally add people to my tree until I have some primary documentation. Would you be able to direct me to any sources? Thank you.

Query #126 – Harold Ernest Hull & Marion Theresa Ward–James Robert “Bob” Hull & Robin Ariel Sargent–Connecticut: I was adopted by the Theriot family at age 8. My biological parents were James Robert Hull & Robin Ariel Sargent from Connecticut. My biological grandfather, Harold Ernest (sp?) Hull, is reported in Ancestry.com as being born in Wentworth, Newton, MO in 1913, and having died in Aug 1961. His wife, my father’s mother, was Marion Theresa Ward. But another Harold (Harold George) Hull, is also listed with the exact same information. This seems to be a mistake. Can anyone shed any light on this? Either my information on my grandfather’s middle name is wrong, or someone has identified my grandfather as the wrong Hull.
