Greetings to the Bullock list: I found something rather interesting posted on the Internet today. There was a list of 22 slaves who had been freed by David Bullock, Esq., of Virginia and transported to Monrovia in the Colony of Liberia in Western Africa, where they arrived on 15 Jan. 1828. One additional child was born at sea during the trip from VA to Liberia. The eldest person on the list was David Bullock, age 40, who took the name of his master, I would suppose, and all used the surname of Bullock. There were notations regarding the education of the persons transported. David Bullock could read, for example, and others were said to be able to spell. The transition from VA to Liberia was not an easy one, as four children under the age of 11 died during the remainder of 1828. I am curious as to the identity of this David Bullock, Esq., which often meant that the person was an attorney. I see a deed in my records from 1807 Louisa Co, VA, where David Bullock was the attorney handling a land sale, so he might be a possibility. There were two men named David Bullock in Louisa Co. who received pensions for service in the Revolutionary War, and both were born in 1759. I suppose that one of these might be the David Bullock who married Susannah Moore on 4 Feb. 1778 in Louisa Co, and he or the second David Bullock might have been the one who married Jane Terry on 12 Feb. 1782. David Bullock was a witness to the 1777 will in Louisa Co. of John Moore, who named a daughter as Susannah, so John Moore must have been the father-in-law of David Bullock. There were multiple connections between the Bullock, Moore, Clark, and Henderson families in several counties in south central Virginia, which I have not been able to sort our satisfactorily. If anyone has a good handle on these connections, I would like to learn of it. One of the two men named David Bullock in the 1820 census of Louisa Co. would likely have been the son David named in the 1784 will of John Bullock, who had married Ann Rice on 4 Feb. 1755 in Louisa Co. Maybe the other one was a nephew of John Bullock, son of Edward Bullock. Whoever the David Bullock, Esq., was who granted manumission to 22 slaves shortly before 1828, this would have represented a sizable fortune at that time. It would be interesting to know a bit more about him. Does anyone have any information? My best regards, Ron Bullock

For seldom is a person known, by a few facts and stories shown.

Those of us who are researching the lines of Richard Bullock of Rehoboth have been aware of a Richard Bullock who was baptized in Pitchford, Shropshire, England. However, there was no evidence that would indicate whether or not these may have been one and the same person. I have been hoping for a chance to go to Shropshire to see if I could find any evidence that would show whether or not Richard of Pitchford was the immigrant to Rehoboth. Last month I found British Airline tickets for $308 non-stop roundtrip Denver to London and back, so I booked a pair. I was also able to get some half-price rail tickets and a discounted room rate, so the trip was quite affordable. Our hotel was in Shrewsbury, the county seat of Shropshire (formerly called Salop) and the location of the Shropshire Record & Research Centre. The Centre is a modern, well-organized facility with very friendly and helpful staff. My wife & I spent four days in the Centre copying Bullock records from the 1500s and 1600s. The records available there are the parish records, i.e. the baptisms, marriages, and burials of Shropshire. Wills are held by the Lichfield Diocese, and I didn't go there. I don't know where early land records are kept. We copied about 180 records of events involving Bullocks (often spelled Bullocke plus a few other variations). We got only those from the parishes in the immediate area of Pitchford that included Condover, Berrington, Wroxeter, Uppington, Eton Constantine, Leighton, Buildwas, Sheinton, Cressage, Harley, Cound, Kenley, Frodesley, Acton Burnell, Ruckley & Langley, Longnor, Leebotwood, Smethcott, Stapleton, Atcham, Upton Magna, and Wrockwardine. While there are quite a few parishes, they were not big ones and covered only a small area. I did find the record for Richard, son of John Bullock, baptized 26 May 1622 in Pitchford. Other children of John Bullock baptized in Pitchford were William, 23 Jun 1616; Elizabeth, 10 Oct 1619; and Alexius, 5 Aug 1627. John, the father, is possibly the John Bullock who married Margaret Dearne 24 Oct 1614 in Longnor. These records were followed by the burial of John Bullocke 19 Jun 1629 in Pitchford. There were no other records for a Bullock in Pitchford until the burial of another John Bullock 3 Jul 1665. In the records of Condover parish, which is just a few miles east of Pitchford, I found the marriage of Richard Bullock & Elizabeth Williams 9 Oct 1645. This is quite possibly the Richard Bullock b. 1622 in Pitchford, and that would mean he is not our immigrant ancestor who was in Rehoboth before that date. There was also the burial of a Richard Bullocke 7 Feb 1630 in Condover. This could have been the Richard b. in 1622 in Pitchford. Unfortunately there is nothing to indicate if the Richard who was born in 1622 was the Richard who married in 1645 or the Richard who died in 1630 or if they are all three different persons. If John, the father of Richard, left a will, that might help answer the question. Some events in Shropshire (there wasn't time to check the entire county) that included a Richard Bullock are as follows: Given Name Event Date Place Relationship --------- --- ----------- ---------- ------------ Richard mar. 13 May 1560 Worthen spouse Alice Goodall Roger bap. 11 Jul 1561 Worthen parent Richard Alice bap. 15 Aug 1563 Worthen parent Richard Randolph bap. 14 Sep 1569 Worthen parent Richard Thomas bap. 22 May 1570 Worthen parent Richard Richard mar. 1581 Pontesbury spouse Anna Parks Richard bap. 8 May 1586 Worthen parent Richard Richard bur. 25 Sep 1594 Worthen Elizabeth bap. 26 Dec 1603 Condover parent Richard of Chatford Joyce bap. 11 Mar 1608 Condover parent Richard of Chatford Richard mar. 28 May 1616 Smethcote spouse Mary Phillips Richard bap. 29 Aug 1618 Waterfall parents not listed Richard bap. 29 Apr 1622 Atlowe[?] parents not listed (parish may be Atcham) Richard bap. 26 May 1622 Pitchford father John Richard bur. 7 Feb 1630 Condover Richard bap. 27 Apr 1630 Shrewsbury parents John & Mary (St. Chad's) Richard bap. 4 Aug 1630 Alstonfield parents not listed Richard mar. 9 Oct 1645 Condover spouse Elizabeth Williams Richard bap. 7 Nov 1645 Alstonfield parents not listed Richard will 1655 Stapleton (Prerogative Court of Canterbury Wills) Roger bap. 15 Jan 1656 Cound parents Richard & Joane Roger bur. 19 Feb 1656 Cound parent Richard Elizabeth bap. 10 May 1667 Stapleton parents Richard & Joan Jone bur. 30 Sep 1668 Cound spouse Richard Sara bap. 20 Mar 1669 Stapleton parents Richard & Tomasen Richard bap. 5 Mar 1671 Cound parent Richard Martha bap. 3 Apr 1674 Cound parents Richard & Jone Thomas bap. 30 Nov 1676 Cound parents Richard & Jone Richard --- 1668 Stapleton made his mark "R".

Once upon a time, in Derby England, lived Frederick Bullock Sr. and his wife Alice Elizabeth Beatty Bullock. Family lore states that when Frederick died, Alice and her parents decided there were more opportunities in America and they immigrated around 1888. Known children were: 1a) Edith Bullock born 1879 Derby, England to Frederick's first wife 1b) Alice Elizabeth Bullock born 6 Oct 1882 Derby, England 2) Ethel Bullock born about 1884 Derby, England died around age 2 (abt 1886) 3) Frederick William Bullock, Jr. born 8 Aug, 1885 Derby, England died abt February 1886 Derby, England 4) Martha M. Bullock born abt 1888 in the US? (Alice may have been pregnant when she came over to the States.) In the 1881 census, I have the information on Frederick's first wife Catherine, who must've died soon after the census, because on Dec. 27, 1881 in the Parish of Derby St. Peter I have the marriage certificate for Frederick and his second wife, Alice Elizabeth Beatty. However, it turns out that the story of Frederick dying was not altogether accurate. It seems that Frederick had a problem with gambling. Rumor has it that he was requested to leave England. It appears that he packed his family on the boat but he didn't leave. It is possible that he left America and came back and died in England, or he never left. Edith was adopted by her step-mother. However, when Alice was going to the States, Edith (1a) was supposed to stay in England with her mother's parents. The story goes that when Edith was at the dock saying goodbye, she just couldn't handle it. Edith said she had to be with her sister, so Edith accompanied them to America. Edith eventually married Charles M. Clark (born 1880 in Pennsylvania) from an old Quaker family in Pennsylvania. Their children were Fred Clark born 1906, died 1968. (presumably named in memory of her deceased brother and not after her father), Alice L. Clark born 1905 (named after her sister or mother) and Elizabeth "Betty" Clark born 1914. 1b) Alice (the younger) Elizabeth Bullock was born 6 Oct 1882, Derby, England. When they landed in Philadelphia, they were taken in by other English people who had a black servant. Alice, who was only 6, wouldnt eat at first with the servant because she thought he was dirty. Alice was punished in school because they thought she was talking funny, with her English accent. Alice excelled at school and got skipped ahead several grades. She inadvertantly caused her half-sister to drop out of school, when she passed Edith, who was 3 years older. She started teaching at 17 years of age and had a tough time with keeping discipline with the older, bigger farm boys. She taught at Landsdale Quaker one room school. Although she had been raised in the Church of England, she began attending Quaker meeting and later met her Quaker husband-to-be, William Ralston Hoopes who was born 12 Dec 1875, West Chester, PA. They had a single daughter Mary Yearsley Hoopes (named after William's mother) born in 1914, West Chester, PA. Mary was twelve years old when her father, suffering from heritary depression, took his life. Alice Bullock Hoopes had to sell much of their land and possessions and went back to teaching. In later years, she lived with daughter Mary in West Chester. In her mid-eighties she began to suffer from senile dementia and she died 26 November, 1971. 4) Martha Bullock, the youngest child of Frederick and Alice Beatty Bullock, married an Unknown Baldwin before 1906. They had no children that I know of. Then after 1910 she married George Mellor (born abt 1886) George was a good friend of both Charles Clark and William Ralston Hoopes. They had a girl, Margaret (Peggy) Mellor (1921-). Frederick Beatty, Sr. Birth: 1853, Derby, England Death: aft 1888, England ?

Hello Ron, Deborah Bullock Freeman here. Is this line of Bullock's your line and where does your line come in at? This is my line of Bullock's. John Bullock m to Ann Rice is my 4 times great-grandparents. Where did you get your infro. and do you have any infro. on the Rice and Clark Family Lines? I have infro. that shows this Bullock line goes back to one Hugh Bullock out of Devonshire, England.

Can anyone help us? > > Louise Pettus ===================== Yes, Louise, I do not believe that there is any doubt that the S. Bullock who wrote this letter from MS in 1807 was Stephen Bullock, the son of Edward Bullock of KY. Stephen Bullock died in Claiborne Co, MS, in 1812. Because he referred to William Pettus as an uncle, the first possibility to consider would be that the mother of Stephen Bullock was a sister to William Pettus. However, the information given to me, which I have never tried to verify through my own research, is that the only known wife of Edward Bullock of KY was Agnes Wingfield. The term uncle had a wider meaning in those early days than we think of at present, though, so it might be necessary to consider a wider range of possibilities. The husband of an aunt of Stephen Bullock on either side of his family, Bullock or Wingfield, might have been called an uncle, so might it have been possible that William Pettus was married to a Bullock or Wingfield? Adding additional complications, in looking at wills in those days, it was not unusual for a man to assume a kinship that really belonged to his wife, so that her mother became his mother and her uncle his uncle and so forth. Therefore, one could not rule out the possibility that William Pettus was the brother of the father or mother of the wife of Stephen Bullock. My information is that his wife was Mary Barnes, so that if the connection came through his wife, it would likely have been her mother who was a Pettus. It would vary from family to family, of course, but the term uncle might easily include a few dozen people, if a man included in that term his own uncles, the husbands of his own aunts, and his wife's uncles on either side of her family. Thus, the determination of possible relationships is not as simple as it might appear. The most straight-forward situation would be that a possible second wife of Edward Bullock, after the death of Agnes Wingfield, was the mother of Stephen Bullock and the sister of William Pettus. There is some evidence of earlier associations between the Bullock and Pettus families. The great-uncle of Stephen Bullock, I believe, was Richard Bullock, who was the ancestor of many of the Bullock families in Granville Co, NC. When Richard sold the last land that he held in Virginia to Thomas Shelton on 11 April 1757 in Louisa Co., the deed was witnessed by a John Pettus. If you would be willing to share the entire letter written by Stephen Bullock with the Bullock list, I feel sure that there would be many who would enjoy reading such a historical letter in which mention was made of Aaron Burr and his followers. Good luck in solving this interesting puzzle regarding the exact relationship that made William Pettus the uncle of Stephen Bullock. My best regards, Ron Bullock

Jeff: I'm the Kathy mentioned in the message you forwarded regarding S. Bullock. Edward's son Stephen was a lawyer in Claiborne Co., MS. Stephen is most likely the same person as the S. Bullock who wrote to his uncle William Pettus. Any one know if Edward Bullock had an earlier wife who was a Pettus?
