Title: Thomas & Rebecca Bull
Post by: antonacb on Friday 21 March 14 05:47 GMT (UK)
Hi I am trying to find more info about Thomas & Rebecca Bull, they had 11 Children and lived in Speldhurst Tunbridge Wells Kent from 1785 to at least 1806 when the last child was christened.The only Marriage I can find for Thomas is to a Benedictor Martin married in East Sussex,I wonder if she changed her name to Rebecca or Rebekah wouldl't blame her if she did. There are a lot of martins in East Sussex but could not find any baptism for her. Ann Bull b 1799 and number 7 in the family is my 2x gg/mother who married a Richard Bull in Lewis 1823

I would be very grateful if there is anyone who knows anything about this family Thank You

Hello antonacb

Sorry if I have got it wrong but an Ann Bull married 13 Nov 1823 at Lewis All Saints a Richard Hodd.There is no marriage on the Sussex Marriage Index for an Ann Bull marrying a Richard Bull

Kind regards

Hi,

I have a Benedicta on my Sussex family tree at about the same time as yours.

There were name fads then, as there are now.  I doubt she changed her name.

Hi Omega 1 Sorry it's taken a few days to get back to you my fault I should have put Ann Bull m Richard Hodd I do have their Marriage Certificate ,the problem is with Thomas Hodd & Rebecca unable to find marriage as re my previous message I always seem to be on the computer late at night and the grey matter gets confused sometimes
Kind Regards
