In answer to your letter of July 18th 1840 I have to say that my baptismal records previous to the year 1802 were destroyed by a servant girl with out my knowledge or consent: so that I cannot give any account of the Baptism of Mrs Hulls children anterior to that year. I presume however that Mrs Hulls statement is correct. I find from my records which remain that I baptised Mary Ann daughter of Pomeroy Hull and wife September 19th 1802. Her age does not appear from the record.

I have reviewed your letter of the 25 August but I do not know that I can communicate any additional information which will be useful to Mrs Hull. From the records of the church I find that Pomeroy Hull + Polly his wife were received into the church January the eleventh in the year one thousand eight hundred one. The baptism of their children must have been subsequent to that event. The baptism of those children who were born previous to the birth of Mary Ann in all probability occurred some time in the year one thousand eight hundred and one. There can I think be no reasonable doubt in regard to this fact. I regret, Sir, that this is all I can say in relation to the subject.
Yours with respect.
