Reverend Joseph Hull sailed from England and, with 106 congregants, founded the Hull Colony in Massachusetts in 1635. The Hull Colony was located in what is now Weymouth, Massachusetts. It is the second oldest settlement in Massachusetts, the oldest being at Plymouth.
Apparently he held somewhat liberal views that weren’t welcomed by a conservative congregation. He moved to Hingham, Massachusetts, was expelled by Gov. John Winthrop, so then moved to Plymouth, then Barnstable, Yarmouth, Accominticus (now York, Maine), and finally returned to England. He managed to stay in England for about 10 years before he was expelled from his parish there. He finally returned to the colonies, settling in Isles of Shoals, New Hampshire, where he died in 1665.
