Notes:

Joseph Hull was a distinctly outspoken and controversial minister of the Church of England who was fired from at least six congregations. He began preaching in Colyton, Devonshire, but was expelled in about 1635. At that point, he and some loyal members of his congregation came to Weymouth, Massachusetts Bay Colony. But he turned out to be too liberal for his congregation, and sent him packing to a church in Hingham, where and got involved in politics. But he was sufficiently critical of Governor John Winthrop that Winthrop expelled him from the Massachusetts Bay Colony. He moved next door to a congregation in Barnstable, in Plymouth Colony, but only lasted a couple of years there. His next congregation was in Yarmouth, and then out of Plymouth Colony altogether to what now York, Maine. When he was replaced there, he went back to England. After a decade in England, he was sent packing again, and returned to America, in Durham, New Hampshire. He finally formed a new (and very small) congregation on the Isles of Shoals, about five miles off the coast on the border between New Hampshire Maine border. This last move was probably his own choice!
