There is no proof (yet) that Hannah Jane Hull was the daughter of Jarvis Hull, but:

* All references say she was born in NY, and family records say she was born in Bedford. (See Steadwell, Stedwell, Studwell’, p.68)

* There were not many Hulls in Westchester County 1800 - 1840, often about 3 or 4, and they were primarily in the Salem, Lewisboro, Bedford area, close to Connecticut.

* In 1833, the Town of Bedford assessed Walter Hull, Jarvis Hull and David Hull for highway maintenance.

* By 1840, Jarvis and his family had moved to Stamford, as shown in the 1840 census.

* In 1842-3, the Methodist Episcopal Church admitted Hannah J. Hull and Johannah Hull by letter of transfer.

* The 1850 census shows that Jarvis Hull had a daughter named Johannah. Hannah J would not appear in the census because she had married Solomon Studwell and appears with him.

* The 1830 and 1840 censuses both show that females of Johanna and Hannnah’s ages were in Jarvis Hull’s household.

* Hannah Jane’s only daughter was named Joanna.
