Notes:

Description: Paul, there are a number of problems with this record. Firstly, the father of these children is named as Reuben Benjamin HULLEY on their baptism entries in the NGK registers at Barkly East. Secondly, the two Death Notices for Reuben Benjamin HULLEY show that he died aged 45 years in 1897 at Vryburg Government Hospital. His burial record also gives his age as 45 years. The transcription of his baptism indicates that the transcriber struggled to read his middle name, so I think it is necessary to inspect the original document to prove this either way. I have been through this before, many years ago, and I seem to remember that he had other children by a coloured woman after his wife died. It is possible that they were married. I have seen the documents, but don't have copies of them. I'll try to get more documentation from my Hancock cousin in Salt Lake City, but that may take some time.

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).

Richard married Ann Brangan, 1820 Settler about 1809 in Ireland. Ann was born in 1783 in Bandon, Co Cork, Ireland; died in Dec 1844 in Clumber, Bathurst (nr), Eastern Cape, South Africa; was buried in Clumber, Bathurst (nr), Eastern Cape, South Africa. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

gives BRANGHAM or BRAUGHAM, usually the former. [21] gives BRIDGHAM. [21] gives BRANGAN. Cannot trace a Boudon in Ireland (as per [14]): most likely Bandon, the place where her daughter Sarah was also born. [44] gives birth date as 1783.

The cemetery is situated in the grounds of the Methodist Church on Mount Mercy. On 16th April, 1826, the people were very apprehensive while 40 elephants passed this first church, on their way to feeding sites. Ann born & married at Bandon not Brandon - Richard's army records confirm. Bandon lies on the Bandon river in Cork County
