Roger Bull
About me:
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

Sitting Bull was born in 1831. Family, friend, or fan, this family history biography is for you to remember Sitting Bull.
Sitting Bull | Lakota Holy Man, Chief
Sitting Bull was a Lakota holy man and chief who was killed by Indian agency police while attempting to arrest him for his support of the Ghost Dance.
He was a valiant warrior and led many battles for his people but he also was a performer in Buffalo Bill Cody's Wild West Show, reportedly earning $50 a week.
You should read up on him, he's a fascinating man.
