Henry, born August 3, 1857, was the seventh of eight children of George
    and Caroline (Parmenter) Hull; there were four boys and four girls.
       Henry married and established a home in Linn County, Missouri. He and
    his wife had three children. His wife and two of the children died and
    were buried in Missouri.
       Henry migrated to Barber County about 1890. He probably chose Barber
    County because his sister Julia (Mrs. George Graves) had moved to Hardtner
    when she married. He moved by covered wagon, and later his mother came by
    train, bringing his only remaining son, Charley.
       In 1893 Henry married the local school teacher, Olive Virginia McCoy.
    They made their first home six miels northeast of Hardtner, Kansas. Henry
    made the run into the Cherokee Strip in September, 1893, and staked a claim 
    2 1/2 miles south of Hardtner. Driftwood Creek ran through the southwest
    part of his claim. They built a frame house, 16'X20', where they lived until
    1904.
       Four children were born during these years. Raymond was born in 1894 in
    the home near Hardtner before they moved on the claim in Oklahoma. Three
    children: Ethel - 1896, Clifford - 1898, and Allen - 1901 were born in the
    Oklahoma Territory.
       In 1904 Henry sold out and moved back to Barber County, buying 320 acres
    on Mule Creek. He raised wheat, corn, and some livestock. Two more children:
    Leila - 1904, and Wendell - 1908 were added to the family. The children
    attended Canema School, located southeast of the present Union Chapel. In
    1914 Henry bought 960 acres of ranch land south of Lake City from Luther
    McElwayne. With the help of his young boys, Henry operated both farm and
    ranch until 1919. In 1918 a new brick and tile home was built at the ranch;
    it had running water from a gravity system piped into the house. His family
    moved to the ranch and sold the farm on Mule Creek.
       Henry passed away in March, 1925, and Olive in 1952.
       Charley lived with the family until he became a young man. He enlisted
    in the Army when he was about 18 or 19 years old. Returning home in 1918,
    he helped his dad build the new house. He later moved to California where
    he worked for an oil company until he lost his eyesight. He passed away in
    1947.
       Raymond married Thelma Colborn. They had five children: Mary (Copenhaver),
    Georgie (Russell), Dallas, Clinton, and Dorothy (Willis). Raymond and Thelma
    bought the land from his mother and continue to live there.
       Ethel attended high school in Medicine Lodge and then taught school four
    years. She married Escar Reed in 1919; they lived in Barber County several
