Roger Bull

This is the adventurous search for the ancestors and descendents of Ambrose Bull and his wife, Elizabeth (nee Johnson) Bull. Ambrose was born circa 1750 to Robert and Rachel T. Bull in New Bern District, Craven County, North Carolina. Elizabeth Johnson Bull married Ambrose about 1777 in New Bern, Craven County, North Carolina. She was the daughter of Jacob Johnson and Sally Pearce. Ambrose Bull was an American Revolutionary War soldier. He served under Captain Charles Roach under the command of Colonnel Johnson. (You will find Ambrose Bull listed in the Daughters of the American Revolution rolls.) This search originally began with the "Group of Seven," family researchers including Jack Pepper, Mary Roman Sparks Matthews, Mrs. James C. Holmes, Jack C. Grantham, Ruth R. Houghton, Barbara R. Norton, Dr. Halbert Harris. Let me add that Mary Sparks Matthews' book, "Fourteen Frontier Families: Sparks, Ruth, Brooks, Pryor, Wyatt, Deale, Bull, Johnson, Pearce, Blount, Campbell, Chapman, Maxwell, Pearce" was a tremendous asset in my personal research. She culminated our family history into a rich blend of entertaining education. I am deeply indebted to her and the Group of Seven for their invaluable efforts and time. (You may reach Mary Sparks Matthews at [contact link].) With kind regards, Roger Charles Bull
