Stephen Bull, of Kingshurst Hall, Warwickshire, England, sailed
from London in August 1669, as Deputy Governor for Lord Anthony
Ashley-Cooper. The sailing vessel, The Carolina, landed on
Bull's Island January 10, 1670, carrying the first group of
English settlers in South Carolina. Stephen settled at Ashley
Hall, on the Ashley River, near Charleston.
The church at Sheldon was built in 1753, burned by the British
in 1780; rebuilt, it was burned again in 1865 by the invading
Federal troops. A handsome silver Communion Service, presented
to the church by Governor William Bull, is still in use.
"The Carolina" is the ship shown on the reverse of the
Tricentennial Medallion and on which William Cockfield came to
America, his grandson married into the Bull family.

All three of his known children who were alive in 1880 - William
Joseph Hurst, Franklin Hurst, and Lucinda Hurst Gardner - listed
their father as having been born in Virginia.
William did indeed have 3 boys and 2 girls, all born in VA or
MD. Besides the four mentioned above, there was Catherine, who
married Eden Harris. (Lucinda married Matthew Gardner.) Whether
there was "possibly one more" child is an open question; it has
been suggested that Samuel Hurst, who married another,
unrelated, Lucinda Hurst (my great grandaunt) in Wythe County,
was possibly another son of William and Rachel. Y-chromosome DNA
tests of direct male descendants of William and Samuel might
prove or disprove this, and also determine whether one or both
lines are related to us "Shenandoah Hursts."

John Jack Walker, II, known to many of the whites as Chief Jack,
from whom Bradley County's beautiful Walker Valley takes its
name, was prominent among the Cherokee leaders who lived in the
area later to become Bradley County. Here stood his handsome two
story log home until it was razed in 1907 by George Fain, a son
in-law of Pryor Lea, one of early Cleveland's most noted
citizens. Fain erected in its place a commodious residence.. And
near this spot lies all that remains of Jack Walker, who was
buried in the northeast corner of his orchard after being
fatally wounded by another Cherokee named James Foreman in an
ambush on the Cleveland-Spring Place Road a mile west of Muskrat
Springs, now known as the Cedar Springs. The old house was sold
to a man named Muchler or Mullins, who built a house and barn of
the logs, according to the late Emma Hampton, one time historian
of the Ocoee Chapter, D.A.R. in a paper titled "An Indian
Romance." Miss Hampton said in her paper that Jack Walker's full
name was John Osment Walker.
"Chief Jack" was a large and extremely handsome man who
habitually dressed himself in the fine broadcloth worn by the
gentlemen of his time."
