The Hulse family of
Long Island
First Generation -
Richard Hulse
Richard Hulse, was
born about 1640/1645, possibly in England, and died between 4 July and
21 August 1696 in Brookhaven, Long Island,
New York. His first wife's name is unknown, but was the mother of his
four
sons Thomas, Richard, Joseph, and John. She died between 1675 and 1680.
He then was married for the second time, before 6 June 1681, to Hannah
Beardsley (also recorded as Hannah Dayton in the 1692/3 will of Walter
Jones
who left Richard a portion of his estate.) No issue is known by this
latter
marriage. Richard first appeared in local records, 21 September 1670,
as
a witness to the deed for land at Brookhaven sold by Andrew Miller to
Richard
Smith. Land was granted to him by the town in 1676, but no other record
of
him has been found until he appeared in the will of Walter Jones when
his
four children were specifically mentioned.

"Quote from the first paragraph Introduction to
the Hulse Family Network
This Hulse
Family Web Page is the electronic supplement to the original
Hulse Family Network created back in the days of pencil, paper,
and
three by five cards. It is composed of material accumulated by decades
of
research by family historians who became nearly blind, and
definitely
arthritic, bending over dusty books in damp library basements trying to
record by candle light the semi illiterate writings of the past. The
fact
that the information they accumulated by their heroic deeds is so full
of
holes that you can drive a truck through it does not detract from their
efforts. It will be up to you, the modern internet
generation,
to prove them wrong (and I stress the word "prove"), and build on their
efforts.
There is nothing in all the work that has gone on before that can be
taken
for granted, and believe me what has been accumulated has only
scratched
the surface.
Taken from the
introduction to Hulse
Immigrants to America CLAN "R" - RICHARD HULSE. England.
Immigrated before 1670.
WARNING NOTE: There has been recent speculation that Richard
may not be the original immigrant. If this turns out to be true
then the first two or three generations may have to be shuffled.
