  • Notes 
    • There is no suitable baptism for John in Ringwood or in any other surviving parish register in Hampshire. However it's clear that Bull family is more complex than I've yet worked out. There's another John who had children 1649–70, who is probably the clothier who died in 1695. There's also a Thomas whose only recorded child was baptised in 1634, and a John in Beaulieu. Presumably these people all fit into the Bull family of Ringwood, but how is not clear.
