Surname Saturday - Hull Update

Hull Update

This is an update to my HULL surname sketch posted earlier at this link http://nutfieldgenealogy.blogspot.com/2011/12/surname-saturday-hull.html

I have some additional information about Reverend Joseph Hull thanks to reader Martin Hollick, a former genealogy blogger.  He informed me that Hull had two wives and seventeen children as listed below, and his English ancestry has been confirmed.    Again his TWO wives are still unknown, although even more has been found about Reverend Hull.   

Martin gives some good sources I didn’t have:
