I'm writting to you in regards to the family name of Hulley. My mothers maiden was Hulley and her father was William Hulley.

Willam Hulley was born Sept. 8,1875 at Virginia City,Nevada U.S.A. There are no records of birth for that time period due to a fire at the Court House where the records were kept.

William's mother died when he was four years old and he was sent to Lancashire ,England and was raised by Relatives. At the age of eleven he was apprenticed at the Bucktonvale Print and Finishing Works in Bucktonvale. At the age of 23 he returned to Nevada.
