    Sylvanus was a Soldier in 2 campaigns in the Revolutionary War, against Bourgogne in 1777 and against Arnold, who burned his home town in South Connecticut in 1780. Three brothers, John, Sylvanus and Samuel were partners in a blacksmith and wagon-making shop and a mill in the edge of Lee township against Tyringham twp, Berkshire, MA. Samuel died 6 Mar 1813. The farm was valued at $35 per acre. The estate was settled and by 1815 Sylvanus and John had moved to Nelson twp, Portage, OH. When Sylvanus applied for a Revolutionary Pension in 1820, his 160 acres was valued at $3 per acre. Connecticut kept the NE corner of Ohio for Revolutionary Soldiers as the "Western Reserve".

    In 1814 the Hulets' moved from Lee, Berkshire, MA to Nelson, Portage, OH. They were baptised Mormons in Oct 1831. About 1831 they moved to Independence, Jackson, MO. Oct 31, 1833 mobs drove them north across the Missouri River into Clay County. In 1836 they moved north into Far West, Caldwell, MO. In early spring 1839 they moved to Melrose, Lima twp, IL, about 30 miles south of Nauvoo. In the fall of 1845 mobs drove them into Nauvoo.

    !Patricia Skinner (4 - 2000) patty555@webtv.net "Sylvanus bought land in Lee, Massachusetts and Great Barrington in 1800. He stayed in that vicinity until approximately 1812, when he boutht land in the new frontier - Ohio. He moved to Portage, Ohio. He married Mary (Polly) Lewis. Sylvanus' children were among the early members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon). He and Polly had 4 children. They were: (1) Sally, born 29 Oct 1787 who married Elisha Whiton (Whiting) on 18 Sep 1806, (2) Charles, born 3 Mar 1790 who married Anna Taylor on 22 Jun 1814 in Lee, Massachusetts. Anna died a year later. Charles then married Margaret Noah on 10 Oct 1816 in Portage, Ohio. Margaret died on 15 Apr 1851 of Dithers disease. On 24 Jan 1852 Charles married Cinthia Clyde. Shortly thereafter, Cinthia divorced him. In 1857 Charles married Eleanor Jenkins. During his marriage he took a second wife, which was the custom of the Mormons in those days. Her name was Mary Lawson. They were married 1 Jan 1858. Mary died in an accident while crossing the plains. By his 5 wives Charles had 7 children. (3) Charlott, born 7 Nov 1792 (4) Rhoda, born 8 Jun 1795. Those were the children listed as born in Lee Vital Records. Other children I have found born to him and Mary (Polly) are (5) Sylvester, born about 1800 (6) Francis, born about 1803, and (7) Mary, born about 1805. Sylvanus can be found in the tax list for Hiram, Portage County in 1817 and 1818. In 1819 and 1820 I have found him in the tax list for Nelson, Portage County, Ohio. He applied for a Soldier's Pension on 14 Jun 1819 while living in Nelson. Many in his family moved to Missouri and then later to Utah.

    John's brother Samuel married Susannah Wadsworth on 3 Jun 1789 in Tyringham, Massachusetts. He began buying land in Lee and Great Barrington in the year 1800. While living in Lee they had 4 chidren: (1) Chauncey born 14 Mar 1790, (2) Electa, born 3 May 1793, (3) Orren, born 17 May 1796, (4) (the only thing known about the 4th child is that it passed away at 7 AM on 6 Mar 1808. When malaria hit the area in 1813, every family was affected. Samuel and Susannah died a week apart as a result of the deadly illness. Chauncey is found in the same tax lists in Ohio that his uncle Sylvanus lived in.

    John's youngest brother, Asa married a girl named Freelove. Her last name is unknown at this time. They had at least 3 children that we know of: (1) Mary, born about 1781 and (2) Asa, born about 1786. Both children joined the short-lived Shaker religion. (3) Calvin, born about 1792. Asa and his family moved to Barrington, Berkshire County, Massachusetts. Freelove died in 1807. Asa remarried on 8 Mar 1812 at Onondaga, New York to Polly Austin. On 8 Jan 1838 he applied for a Soldiers Pension in Livingston County, New York. At least two different dates can be found for his date of death in Russia, Lorain County, Ohio. They are 8 Oct 1846 and 18 Jun 1847. Calvin lived in Leslin, Ingham County, Michigan in 1853. John's sister Mary married her 1st cousin, Seth Hulet on 19 Jun 1764 in Killingly, Connecticut. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Noadiah Russell. Seth was born to Oliver Hulet and his wife Sarah. Oliver was a brother of John Julet (Sr.), also Mary's uncle. While living in Killingly, Seth and Mary had 3 children: (1) Alpheus, born 11 Jan 1765 and baptized 29 Nov 1767 in Thompson, (2) Sybil, born 16 Aug 1767 and baptized 29 Nov 1767 in the church at Thompson. Their Grandmother, Oliver's wife did not live to see them. She passed away in Killingly on 3 Feb 1759. Seth enlisted in the Revolutionary War in 1777. He moved to Tyringham, Massachusetts, where Mary's family had moved to at an earlier date. Seth can be found in the Tyringham, Massachusetts land records between 1796 and 1803. In 1803 he moved to Westmoreland, New York, where he applied for a Soldiers Pension on 7 Aug 1832.

    John's sister, Experience married Henry Herrick in Tyringham, Massachusetts on 12 Dec 1776. In May 1777 a daughter is listed as born to them, however no name is given. Henry died in Tyringham on 6 May 1827. I have found no further record of Experience to date.

    John married Sarah Howe, and was converted to the Methodist religion. He and his father were both constantly buying land, even when they were not living in the immediate area. The younger John and his wife, Sarah, lived in Tyringham until a year after the war was over. During this time their first child was born. It was a girl, whom they named Achsah, born on 5 May 1784. She was only one of a long line of children to come. Achsah married Seymore Chapin.
