About the Book

This is a compilation of those of the Hull surname (and its variants) who served in the Revolutionary War. Contains genealogical information on wives, children, and parents, with 1,191 references cited.

This book is a monumental work on Hulls in the Revolution and is a complete source book on the subject. Its subject matter includes not only the veterans but the patriots and yes, even the loyalists. There are even references to Hull women married to Revolutionary War veterans contained in the work. Also included are Revolutionary War maps, battle descriptions, and a list of those veterans still living according to the 1850 Census.
