Richard and Ann were 1820 settlers. Arrived on the ship Stentor as members of Richardson's Group [21]. N.B. his age is given in burial register as 99 yr 10 mo, but this is incorrect (94 ys 10 mo). There is no gravestone for Richard in the Cradock cemetery [6]. Cutler's apprentice 1797 [33].

Richard William Hulley, the 1820 settler patriarch came with his wife and four children. Five more were born here. It took enterprise and courage for anyone, no matter how poor, to abandon his home in Britain in 1820 and migrate to a far and unknown part of the world such as Southern Africa. The difficulties, delays and expenses of transport were such that once leaving his native soil, the emigrant knew that it was unlikely that he would see his old home again.
Hard work and frontier dangers kept most immigrants to their lands. (95y).
