The Children of John Hull and Rebecca Unknown

Naoma | Emanuel | Charlotte | Moses | Eliza Jane | George P | John Henry | Samuel Asa | Rebecca
The information that these are their children comes from other researchers.

Phyllis Hughes supplied the following documentation:
On March 01, 1838, Rebecca Hull signed a deed which mentioned three of the heirs of John Hull, deceased.
These were: (1) John M. James and Eliza Jane, his wife, formerly Eliza Jane Hull; (2) Andrew Lusk and Charlotte, his wife, formerly Charlotte Hull; and (3) Moses Hull. Rebecca Hull deeded land on the waters of Woods Creek in Greenup County, Kentucky to John M. Triplett for $150. On the 11th day of December 1838, George P. Hull of Indiana, for the sum of $110, deeded land, also on the waters of Woods Creek in Greenup County, Kentucky, to John M. Triplett, which land George P. Hull had inherited from his father John Hull, now deceased. The deed mentioned that George P. Hull's land was 1/10 of a tract of land owned by his father, indicating that there had been nine children, plus the widow Rebecca, who had inherited the land of John Hull.

from Phyllis Hughes: She may have preceded her mother in death, since she's not mentioned in the 1838 land record in which Rebecca names her other daughters, Charlotte Lusk and Eliza Jane James.

"Another murder" p. 3, col. 3 - Boonville Enquirer - Friday, May 21, 1897
      On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Samuel A. Hull, commonly known as Uncle Ace Hull, was out in his wood's pasture on horse-back driving his hogs to another field when some unknown person slipped up and assassinated the old gentleman. His horse rode home and relatives immediately went in search of him, about midnight his body was found in the wood's pasture and removed to his home near by in Pigeon township.
      Squire William B. Cain acting as coroner, held an inquest over the remains of the murdered man and found he had been shot three times. No positive proof was offered but circumstantial evidence point very strongly to Samuel R. Hull, a son of the deceased as the guilty party. The acting coroner issued a warrant and Sheriff W. A. Cherry arrested him. After arrest he waived examination and went to jail without bond.

The Boonville Standard, Boonville, Indiana - Friday, May 21, 1897 - p. 3 or 5, column 3
A Dastardly Crime
      An atrocious murder, which will not add to the good name of our community, was committed near Selvin, in Pigeon township, on Tuesday afternoon. Samuel Asa Hull, aged 72 years, and one of the best-known farmers of War (sic) county, was mysteriously shot and killed in a woods-pasture near his home Tuesday about 4 o'clock p.m. Mr. Hull lived with his daughter Agnes, about two miles east of Selvin. He was divorced from his wife a little more than a year ago. The parents had five children, three boys and two girls. All the children are now grown. Samuel R. Hull, aged 27 years, and the youngest son of the murdered man, is now lying in jail, having been arrested by Sheriff Cherry, on Wednesday, as the suspected murderer. The story of the crime, so far as the Standard has been able to learn the particulars, is as follows. On Tuesday afternoon a neighboring farmer sent his little boy to "Uncle" Asa, informing the latter that his hogs were in the former's field, and that they must be driven home. Mr. Hull promptly saddled his horse, and in order to get quickly to his hogs, cut across the adjoining the farm of his son Sam. The latter was plowing at the time, and called out to his father to go by the public roadway, as his farm was not intended to be used by travelers, A sharp conversation was held held (sic), and was heard by the small boy, who was accompanying "Uncle" Asa. The latter, however, went his way, got his hogs, and returned the same way he went - through his son Sam's farm, as this course was shorter. This is known to be true, as the hog and horse tracks demonstrate. About 4 o'clock in the afternoon several of the neighbors heard pistol shots in the woods-pasture on young Hull's farm. After several hours, when Uncle Asa did not return home, and his horse and hogs were seen running wild, a search was instituted for him. It was not until about midnight, however, that his body was found. George Rice and Gust Pittman made the discovery of the dead body in the strip of wood already alluded to. The other neighbors were informed and a night watch was kept over the remains, as the intention was to have the County Coronor see body in the position it was found dead. At an early hour next day Squire Cain, of Selvin, the deputy Coronor, and attorney Smith, of Gentryville, the deputy Pros. Att'y, were on the grounds, and the body was taken home. It was found that three bullets, 38 cal., had entered the body. Any of the balls were sufficient to cause death. One entered the back, another the stomach, and still another the side going clear through the body. Two balls were extracted by Doctor Spradley of Selvin. Sheriff Cherry arrived on the scene shortly after dinner, and he at once arrested Sam Hull. The latter waived a preliminary hearing before Squire Cain; but an inquest was held and some important testimony gathered in that manner. Mrs. Henry Windell, a neighbor, swore that in the afternoon of the crime, Sam Hull came to her home, and going to a drawer, got his pistol, which several months previously he had lent to Mrs. Windell's husband. Soon after young Hull had secured the weapon, Mrs. Windell heard the shooting in the woods, where the body was discovered. It was found that the bullets extracted from the body, and the cartridges which the pistol carried were both the same, 38-caliber. Sam Hull denied everything connected with the crime. After the inquest, Sheriff Cherry brought Hull to Boonville and lodged him in jail. The prisoner is married, but has no children. It is known that he and his father of late years have had much trouble. A few months since, Asa Hull had his son Sam arrested on charge of stealing lumber. The case came before the last March term of Circuit Court, but the suit was thrown out as the court thought it was groundless. Miss Agnes Hull swore at the inquest that she had numerous times heard her brother Sam threaten to kill his father. Thus the testimony against Sam appears to be very strong. The prisoner however, stoutly denies any connection with the murder. The burial of Asa Hull took place yesterday. The crime is regretted by every good citizen of Warrick county, as it casts a bad repute around the vicinity in which such an outrageous murder should occur. The general opinion is that the true criminal cannot escape the law.

18 June 1897 - Boonville Standard - court news - p. 3, col 3
        Grand Jury returned a bill against Samuel R. Hull charging him with murder in the first degree. Defendant is represented by Posey and Chapple, of Evansville, and Cox and Ficher, of Dubois county. Hull waived arraignment and pleaded not guilty.

I didn't follow this further, so I don't know if he was found guilty or not.
