    Notes:

    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.
