General Notes: Husband - [Ancestor] Hull

---

The progenitor of the Hull family in America was the Rev. Joseph Hull, who was born in England in 1595, and who matriculated at St. Mary's Hall, Oxford, on May 12, 1612, from which he was graduated with the degree of Bachelor of Arts on November 14, 1614. He was instituted rector of Northleigh in 1621, from which he resigned eleven years later, and in 1635, with his second wife, Agnes, seven children, three servants and a company of people whom he had assembled, sailed for the New World. The little group settled at Weymouth, Massachusetts, but the next year the Hulls went to Hingham, and the reverend head of the family afterwards ministered at the Isle of Shoals, York, Oyster River, and again at Shoals, where he died on November 19, 1675. He was buried at York, Massachusetts. Down through the centuries the Hull family has always taken an active part in the life of America, and during the Revolution, through members of the Society of Friends, the Hulls of that day living in New York, took an important, although quiet, part in aiding the efforts of the Quakers in mitigating the sufferings of the American prisoners held by the British during the enemy occupation of that city.
