George was a "surveyor,
Indian trader, magistrate, statesman and founder of a prominent
branch of the Hull family in America". (Weygant). His brothers,
Joseph and William both graduated from St. Mary's Hall at
Oxford and were ministers of the Church of England. Further
evidence of his background, his wife was daughter of a "well-to-do
yeoman of Stockland" (Ibid) in Dorsetshire.
George sailed for
the American colonies from Plymouth 30 Mar 1629 / 30 on the
"Mary and John"; his youngest son, Joshua was baptised at
Crewkerne 7 months after this date, indicating Thomasene and
the young family were left in England while George became
part of the "Great Migration". He shared the voyage with friends
George and John Ludlow and future son-in-law Humphrie Pinney.
He was a short time in Boston and went on to help settle the
town of Dorchester where he was on the first board of selectmen
and was made a freeman 4 Mar 1632/3 and was town's first repres
to the General Court.
In 1636 he moved
to Windsor Connecticut and surveyed both Windsor and Wethersfield.
In exchange for this service, he received his choice of home
lots in Windsor where he again represented his town in the
General Court. It was here in 1638 that he and Pinney, through
the graces of the General Court, received a monopoly on the
beaver trade on the Connecticut River.
In 1638 he followed
his friend (Stiles, too says that he was "a citizen of worth
and distinction.") and George Ludlow, now governor of Connecticut,
to Fairfield where he became the General Court designated
assistant to the governor. In 1651, '53, '54 he was appointed
by the governor as associate magistrate for the towns by the
seaside. He was apparently well connected on the political
scene of the blossoming colonies; Cotton Mather mentions him
as does Connecticut state historian Trumbull who groups him
"with those whose names are worthy of perpetuation.
