  "Moses Hull and Elizabeth Hull both above the age of 14 years the minor children of John Hull late of Robinson Township deceased came into court and made choice of a John McDonald of Robinson Township as the Guardian of their persons & properties who was accordingly appointed by the court.
  John McDonald & Alexander Wright of Robinson Township were appointed by the Court Guardians of the persons & property of Rachel, John, Ruth, & Geisham, minor children under 14 years of age of John Hull late of Robinson Township, deceased. 24 Sept. 1792"
  
  There are several deeds for this John Hull before his death and several for various of his children to their mother Rachel, etc., after his death. John Hull and his wife, who is said to be Rachel GOSSETT married 3 Sep 1764 Burlington, NJ. In "The Descendants of Rev. Joseph Hull" compiled by Col. Charles H. Weygant & Orra Eugene Monnette, originally published by the Hull Family Assoc. with supplement by Dave Boatman 1976
  ---------------------------------------
  The following information regarding John Hull was sent by Phyllis J. Hughes, Hull Family Association Genealogist:
  "I serve as Genealogist and Journal editor of the Hull Family Association. In past issues we have featured the family of John Hull and his wife Rachel. Although it has been reported in several placesthat Rachel's maiden name was Gossett, the Burlington Co, New Jersey marriage records would dispute this. The published marriage records say this: John Hall m. Rachel Cogall, 03 Sep 1764, Burlington Co,New Jersey. Therefore, it is my belief that John Hull of Robinson's Run, Washington Co, Pennsylvania did not marry Rachel Gosset, even though it is certain that he did marry a Rachel. If you or your viewer's have any documentation, other than some of the previously published records, that this John Hull m. Rachel Gossett, then I would welcome seeing the proofs.
  We also believe it is in error to say that this John Hull descends from the Rev. Joseph Hull as published in Dave Boatman's Hull Family Register. There seems to be no documentation for stating this. I have several large file drawers on the Washington Co, Pennsylvania Hulls and we have other very dedicated researchers who descend from these families and no one has been able to document their immigrant ancestor. Several of us have studied these Hull families in quite some depth."
