GENEALOGICAL LIST OF THE BULL FAMILY OF THE

COUNTY OF PRINCE EDWARD, ONT.



BY DR. A. C. BOWERMAN, OF BLOOMFIELD, PR. ED. Co., ONT.



I.      JOSIAH BULL, the ancestor, having been a member of the
Society of Friends, is, on that account, assumed to have been
descended from Henry Bull, sometime Governor of Rhode Island,
who also was a Friend (or Quaker).  However plausible the
assumption of this relationship, it may not be amiss to mention
that neither in the family of Governor Bull nor that of Josiah
are there any positive data by which to establish the
accuracy of the inference.  It is, however, considered probable
by members of both families that they belong to the same line;
and much effort is being expended in the search for historical
documents which will ultimately clear up the doubt.*

*NOTE. Nathaniel Niles Bull of Oneonta, N.Y., says: "Josiah
Bull, supposed to have been of English (or Welsh) ancestry,
born probably in Rhode Island; settled in Dutchess County,
N.Y., where he resided and where be died at an advanced age. He
had a brother Jeremy or Jeremiah, who, as early as the beginning
of the French War, lived at a settlement called 'Little
Rest,' about fifteen miles east of Poughkeepsie. Jeremy had
children-a son, Jeremy, and a daughter, Esther, who married one
Henry Tibbits and during my childhood I knew a good deal of the
descendants of both Jeremy and Esther. Henry Bull the ancestor,
born in South Wales in 1610; in Boston, 1635; settled in Rhode
Island at Newport; Joined Friends; and was 2nd Gov. of colony."

The wife of Josiah Bull was a woman of Dutch extraction, named
Tripp, who, in harmony with the marvels of colonial tradition,
was owner of no less than two hundred acres of land now occupied
as the site of New York city.

Meda Peterson at medahp@hotmail.com who
is a descendant of Nathan Bull,
brother of Josiah Bull.  From her information the wife of Josiah Bull was
named Ruth Tripp.]

II.     Children of Josiah Bull and ?? Tripp:
				[see above note]
	1.      Josiah, born 3rd July, 1738-of whom later.
	2.      Mary,    "   11th May, 1740.
	3.      Joseph,  "   28th ?? , 1741.
	4.      Sarah,   "   15th Dec., 1743 mar. a man named Bloodgood.
	5.      Benjamin,"   17th Jan., 1746.
	6.      Robert,  "   15th July, 1748.
	7.      George,  "   13th Jan., 1751-of whom later
				(see IV. 6, Gideon Spencer, page 80).
	8.      Henry,   "      5th Oct., 1752.
	9.      Ruth,    "      9th Sept., 1753.


This family resided in Dutchess County, N.Y., not far from the
present city of Poughkeepsie, and close to the Hudson river.
During the War of Independence two brothers were taken prisoners and sent
to the city of New York, unknown to the rest of the family.  The
treatment of Quaker non-combatants in New England was not less
severe than that meted out to their co-religionists in
Pennsylvania, as one of the Bull brothers died from violence
and privation, while the other survived only long enough to be
rescued by his relations, and died soon after.

[page 78]

Of the above, Josiah's family settled in the Township of
Hallowell, County Prince Edward, and George (or his family)
settled near Colborne, Ont. The families of these two frequently
visited, and later generations intermarried.

II. 1. Josiah Bull, born 3rd July, 1738; mar. (1st) Mehetabel Thomas

II.-1. Josiah Bull, mar. (2nd) Mary, dau. of Dennis and Cornelia Christy,
of Dutchess County, and widow of Robert Kidney (see later IV. 1, page 89),
and had:

III.    Children of Josiah and Mary Bull:

	1.      Abigail, born   25th July, 1797 (see page 89).
	2.      Patience,       26th Sept. 1799 (see page 89).
	3.      Content Ann, born 10th Sept., 1802.  (Content Ann and

NOTE. II. Josiah Bull died in Dutchess County, N.Y.  His dau. Maturah
came in 1792; Matilda in 1793; Ruth, 1802; while his widow Mary and
the three children by second marriage, came in 1817.  They (the latter)
were brought by William and Ruth Christy, in a covered lumber waggon.
William had gone down to attend yearly meeting, no doubt prepared
to bring back with him his sister Mary and her children. It will be
seen that William and Mary Christy mar. father and daughter.  On the
return journey they reached the house of Cory Spencer (Picton) where they
had a mid-day dinner, thence

[page 79]

proceeding to the bush farm of William Christy, about seven
miles west. In 1886 "Aunt Lizzie Wallace" (see Spencers) said
she was a school-girl when the Christys and Bulls came in 1817;
and that when she came home for dinnor from the school-house,
which stood on the hill overlooking the Bay, behind the
residence of Mr. H. S. Wilcocks (1901), she found the arrivals
at dinner at her father's.  It is not known when the other
members of the Bull family came; whether they all came at the
same time or separately; but there is no doubt that they came
about 1802, as John was mar. in Adolphustown in 1803 (according
to the McDowell Reg.).

III.-1. Stephen, born 18th Sept., 1765; mar. (?) in Dutchess
	County, N.Y., leaving issue, viz.:

and his second wife, Abigail Richmond (see Richmond family, by J. B. R., 1897).
Daniel Cunningham had by his first wife, in Dutchess County, a son Charles,
who afterwards settled at Bloomfield and became the progenitor of
the family, which for distinction is known as that of the
Cunninghams of the Island (see page 87), and also a daughter
Patience, who married Solomon Vermilyea and moved to the Western States.

	[Daniel and Abigail Cunningham had issue:
	(1) William, mar. Fanny White and had a son William (see page 85);

		years. Amos and Martha Bull had issue:

		aged 90 yrs. She and her widowed sister, Elizabeth, long lived

	and leaving the farm on west lake shore, known as the Tubbs'
	farm, they settled on Lot 1, First Con., Military Tract,
	Township Hallowell. Their first house was of logs, and stood
	near the low ground where they grew their flax for spinning.
	Before many years, however, they built a large, square
	two-storey frame house, which was painted white, and was for
	those days both commodious and palatial.  Thomas died in 1810 at
	Kingston, en route from Quebec, with "ship fever," and was
	brought home for burial. Maturah married (2nd) John Stinson
	(see page 84).

	IV.     Children of Maturah and Thomas (Bowerman):

NOTE. -The family of Stephen moved to Battle Creek, Mich. They were mar.
at the "Big White House," on the same day (Friday, 18th Sept., 1818)

[page 82]

on which were mar. William Garrett (brother of Phebe) and
Patience Bull, and Townsend Garrett and Sally Bowerman. That was
an occasion not to he overlooked; it was an early
"triple-alliance," and demanded ratification by the assembled
neighborhood, in the collective capacity of an old-timed
charivari. That even was authentically stated by "the oldest
inhabitant" never to have been surpassed for the extravagant
invention of furious fun and frolic.  The vestibuled Pullmans in
which the newly contracted parties began their wedding tours
consisted of heavy farm waggons without springs, and furnished
with large waggon chairs. When these had been taken apart and
replaced in proper shape upon the ground-for the charivaring
party had placed them astride the barn roof-they were free to
pursue their journey over the corduroy roads leading to their
various residences near Wellington, then the Township of Ameliasburg.
	Phebe died at Battle Creek, aged 87 yrs.-removed from Canada in 1863.

	IV.-4. Joseph, mar. (1st) Phebe Cronkhite, dau. Jacob and Philadelphia

	IV.-5. Thomas (called "Big Tommy"), who lived for the greater
		part of his life on the town line between Hallowell and Hillier,
		near a country church which still bears the family name of
		"Bowerman's Church." In keeping with the family proclivity for
		magnificent visions, Thomas offered to "give the land, grade
		the road, and furnish the ties" for a section of railroad, as an
		inducement for the Grand Trunk Railway to be built through
		Prince Edward. Though a great undertaking, it would have been a
		profitable investment, and showed greater speculative foresight
		than many of his followers. He mar. (1st) Jemima Platt, who died
		without issue, then (2nd) Mary Platt, sister of Jemima and widow
		of ?? Young:

[She was widow of George Young, who was the son of Lieut. Henry Young U.E. of
East Lake, Pr. Ed. Co.  Mary & George had 1 child - - Rev. George Young
[1821-1910], who was brought up in the Bowerman home, having step & half

Memories" - Leaves from my life in the Prairie Province 1868-1884,
published by Wm. Briggs in Toronto in 1897. Dr. Young was the founder of
Methodist Missions in the Red River Settlement, & ministered to Thomas
Scott, on the occasion of his execution, during the Riel uprising.

[While looking at your site for the Genealogical History of the Bull
Family I noticed that it says that Phebe Bull, daughter of Josiah Bull
married William Hubbs the son of Robert Hubbs and Jane Haviland. The
information I have states that William is the son of Robert Hubbs and
Mary Fowler (1758 - 1780). That Jane Haviland (1766-1851) is the 2nd.
wife of Robert Hubbs and that she bore him ten additional children. (2)
Benjamin, (3) Robert, (4) Mary (Polly), (5) Jemima, (6) Haviland, (7)
Adam, (8) Amos, (9) Hannah, (10) Annie, (11) Sarah. It shows no date of
death for Phebe. My information shows Phebe born  Aug. 18, 1781 near
Poughkeepsie, N.Y., U.S.A. and died Nov. 16, 1817 at Hubbsville,  near
Wellington, Ontario. Although Hubbsville is no longer there Hubbs Creek
