Hull Family Cemetery (BLACK)
TO FIND THE CEMETERY: Take 64-70 East of Claremont turn left onto Wike Dairy Rd and then turn left on Stage Coach Road (#1719). Cemetery is 9/10 mile on left. It is normally well-kept and visible from road. A Hull descendant, with a push-mower in his car trunk, cleans off the cemetery several times a year. Some stones read by Kevin Isenhour, 24 April 1986, no longer in place. Read by DS Hartshorn & Allen Wagner, May 3, 2003.
The old church which existed before the turn of the century no longer exists. In fact, the only trace of the old church is the foundation of the entry steps.

The addition of the following information comes courtesy of Ann Coleman:
"Robert Pinkney Hull, born January ?, 1902, died December 31, 1933. He is buried in the Hull cemetery. He is the son of Sophroney and William P. Hull."
All other revisions are underscored, and are also the contribution of Ann Coleman, 2 Oct 2003.
That's about it. A re-visit to this cemetery will probably result in new pictures.
