William Bull is my 3x great uncle who was also convicted at the tender age of 14 years to 14 days hard labour for rape but of who I do not know as of yet .
All this has been a shock but existing at the same time to find out

Hi I see some of you on hear are looking at the Bull family from straughton Beds , well I am related to them and trying to find out all I can on them.
William Bull who you all know for the murder of Sarah Marshall 1870 is the brother of my 2x great gran Ursula Flanders Bull 1847 - 1930 who married my 2x great granddad Jacob Hall 1835 - 1920 and that's where the Hall Family fit in to the Bull family.
What iv noticed none of you have mentioned id that William Bull had already been in trouble before he murdered poor old Sarah Marshall. He had done 14 days hard labour in 1863 aged just 14 years for the rape of ???? I don't know but I'm looking into it to see if I can find out any more info . This all so happened in Bedford the trial date 29/09/1863 conviction date 14/03/1863, discharge 26/03/1864
the fist conviction all I know was wilful damage but again to what or whom I don't know as of yet but I do remember being told the family all moved from straughton from the shame of an act of someone who was never talked about and that's how my part of the family came to Peterborough.
Ant info of any kind or help any one can offer would be great , I do have a tree on Ancestry with more info
