Hello,
 I am distantly related to this Bull family. At present I have only done cursory census research to prove the link.
John Bull and Mary Shelley actually married in Boldre according to entry 178 page 60 parish of Boldre 04/09/1832
Their son John c1844 marr Thyrza Bell from Whiteparish Wilts. His brother Samuel Bull married Thyrza's sister Vashti Bell.

John Bull and Thyrza's son, James Walter 1869 married my kinswoman, Kate Elizabeth Bunce b 1872 Bradfield Berks, dau of Joseph Bunce and Jane Sellwood, and moved to Putney.

Jane Sellwood is my link being one of my paternal Sellwoods.
James Walter Bull and Kate Elizabeth had 2 children, one of whom was killed in WW1.
That is as far as I have got but I would be happy to share what I have researched in exchange for any other information/photos/etc.

Hello you Bull relatives. A long shot but I wonder if anyone can help me get further. I have a definite record of a marriage at Beaulieu of William Wheeler and Charlotte Bull but cannot trace either back further. Help please.

Could you put a date for the Wheeler/Bull marriage, just for information and help for others?

I cannot find a baptism for a Charlotte Bull in the Hampshire Baptism Indexes but I did find her buriel {Hampshire Buriel Indexes} which would suggest she was born c 1772

Buriel
19 March 1816-Charlotte Wheeler at Beaulieu age 44

These Wheeler baptisms from the Baptism Index parents William & Charlotte
25 May 1800-Fanny at Boldre
09 May 1806-Elizabeth at Fawley
06 Nov 1809-William at Fawley  {nee Bull} is entered
15 Aug 1813-Louisa at Exbury

Buriel
16 Aug 1818-William Wheeler at Beaulieu age 11

Thank you Kim, There was a core of Bulls in Boldre and although I cannot find Charlotte in the records this suggests that she did come from Boldre before marrying William. Also seems William came from Beaulieu before moving to Stanswood, Fawley.
