Hulett Progress

Its been ages since I posted on here and decided I'd better do some logging of things before I forget them.   The thought of a website is hovering...

Anyway,  I've gone back another two generations nd so the earliest Hulett I have is John Hulett born 1720 who marrried Mary (surname not known) and their only known child is Francis Hulett or Hulatt born 1743 in Felmersham.

This little village has some great weblinks and the Hulatts seem to have been living all round this area for some time with some still there today. 

Francis Hulett was married twice and was very prolific and produced lots of Huletts including my 3 x ggrandfather Samuel.

Came across the following info
