    Notes:

    Benjamin Hull was commissioned Ensign of the Piscataway Military Company No. 4, of Col. Thomas Farmer's Regt. of N. J., in 1713. By his will, date June 5, 1731 and probated Jan. 4, 1733, he conveys to his wife Sarah the benefit of his home lot and one third of his movable estate; to his oldest son Joseph, ten shillings, and each of the remaining sons a one-fifth interest in certain real estate. No mention is made of any one of his five daughters. This would indicate that those of the number who had not married and received marriage dowers had died unmarried previous to the making of said will.
