The following notes are excerpted from "The Hull Family in America" by Charles H. Weygant (available online at the Godfrey Memorial Library):

Joseph was of Barnstable, MA, & South Kingstown, RI. He was a planter, cooper, merchant, & shipper. His wife was of a prominent Quaker family which had been banished from Boston.

Due to measures enacted in MA against Quakers, whereby apprentices and bondservants of Quakers were released without due process of law, Joseph Hull thrashed the sheriff who had come to enact some provision of the law. He was fined seven pounds. Shortly after this he sold land in Barnstable which he had received from his father, and settled in South Kingstown, RI.

At least twice Joseph was chosen Assistant in the Government of RI, somewhat like a state senator of today.

It is thought that he built a house in the Tower Hill area of North/South Kingstown. Quaker meetings were held in his home before the meetinghouse was built.

Notes:

James was the great-grandfather of General Nathanael Greene, second in command to General George Washington during the Revolution. General Nathanael Greene's birthplace was the Greene homestead at Potowomut, Warwick, RI. Sometimes referred to as James Greene "of Potowomut," he was made freeman of Warwick and Providence Plantations in 1647. He served as Town Clerk in 1661, and was described as "as excellent penman of the old English text" ("The Greenes of Rhode Island," p. 64). Under Rhode Island's first charter, he served as Commissioner, or member of the General Assembly. Under the second charter (1663), he served as Deputy Assistant for ten years, until about 1675. His house, along with all in Warwick except one, was burned down by Indians in the Spring of 1675/76 during King Philip's War. Being warned in advance, he had fled to Portsmouth where his father-in-law, John Anthony, lived. It was some time after this, about 1684, that he located at Potowomut, where he built a house by a river which provided power for a forge which was used by his sons and grandsons to do iron work, such as making anchors. (See "The Greenes of Rhode island," p. 64)
