1984 15 Nov - letter to John (Merchant) Hully:
52 Marsden Road, Romiley, Stockport, Cheshire, England SK6 4AS

Dear John (Merchant) Hully 445 Aust04-006
Whenever & wherever I hear or see the name Hully, I am compelled to get in touch with them, for the
simple reason I am the self appointed family historian of the family as such. I have spent the last * years
or so trying to trace all the living members. I have had a great deal of success in finding many relatives
in all parts of the world who have said that they have wanted to do this and in fact many have tried. In
most cases they have sent me details of their own families and from this I have been able to tell them
where they come from and who their ancestors were. In your case I am almost certain that you fit into
the space that I have against the sons and grandsons of FRANCIS HULLY that are missing from the
complete tree.
About two years ago I was lucky enough to obtain some address from a grand daughter (Angela
Markley) of Lewis Fredrick & Louisa Elizabeth Hully. Angela, a nurse in London had tried to find out
more about her ancestors without much luck and the address didn’t mean anything at all to her but they
did to me, as two of my aunts Nellie Mandale (Hully) & Dorothy Hully Claude Hully’s wife both
remember that there was a family in # # and the names Charles Edward, Lillian, Fredrick & John. They
have also visited two elderly aunts Beatrice & Molly Bucket in London and Malta.
My cousin Pauline Wishart who lives in Adelaide said recently that you lived in Perth & she saw you
about two years ago and that your brother & mother went to live in Canada. These pieces of information
came together when I looked again at the address as follows:

Charles & Lillian John Hully Mr F & Mrs L Hully
Edward Maud 25 Cray Ave 1967 Argyle Ave
8 Abbey Road Orpinton Victoria
British Columbia

I know that your father died in 1960 and after that, I could not find no trace of his family anywhere You
will have noticed that I said that you are a relation. The odds are about 9 to 1 on that you are and that
you are the John mentioned above The name without the E is almost unique there about5 to 6 that I
haven’t been able to fit into the family tree but I live in hope to prove that all the Hully’s are one family.

So far I have a complete tree back to1657 and some more broken connections back to 1558.At that time
the family lived in North Lancs in the villages of Tatham, Bentham and Clapham and continued to do so
until recent times, the last WILLIAM HULLY died in 1924, although his sister ANNIE m MICHAEL
FARADY (grandson of MICHAEL FARADY the scientist) died in1945. There are still two or three
descendants from the family side there still.
About 1800 3 or 4 of the Hully # went to Westmorland MOSES (father), JOHN (son) FRANCIS ¹ &
FRANCIS (cousins) they became Farmers, Butcher & Cattle Dealers in ORTON KENDAL and
UNDERBARROW & we are all descended from FRANCIS ¹ I should have said that the Hully’s were still
farmers in North Lancs and the farms that lived on still exist as live farms, I visited several quite recently.
All the families in Westmorland remained fairly static until 1860/70 a sudden scattering for the sons, your
Grandfather FRANCIS joined the army at Woolwich there is still a photograph of him in existence with
pillbox hat etc, and then a gap of some years to the next photographs taken in Malta, hence the idea that
he came from a naval family, held recently by the present Portsmouth area family (Angela).
Although I have said that your family completes that particular branch, I Have a feeling the your father
had another brother called Francis (one of the names in every generation since 1562) perhaps you may
be able to help me there? It’s only a feeling!
You will see further on an abridged version of the family tree & the present whereabouts of relations I am
in touch with. Is the Canada address still correct? If you are interested in family history I will send you a
fuller version, if not I make my apologies for troubling you.
For my self I retired 3 years ago and started this research as a hobby which grown as I found out the our
name is very rare and there were people all over the world who thought that they had no more relations
other than their own families and suddenly they found that they belonged to a slightly larger family with
roots going back along way.
It’s a very serious thing writing to someone you have never seen, but whose name appears in my files
and is a second cousin.
Romiley is about 4 miles from Stockport near the border with Derbyshire, I have one son &had one
daughter (died 1968) with five grandchildren, not forgetting my wife of corse plus two Alsatians. I write
regularly to many of my relations sending them bits and pieces of our family history as I unearth it from
old records. I have a collection of snapshots they send me, so that if I have never met them at least I know
what they look like. Incidentally there are at least two other relations in Australia beside Pauline including
your first cousin Mrs G Moir 5- 27 Marion ST Harris Park NSW 2150 & Kelso Palmer who lives in Henty
NSW.
Many thanks for reading through this rather rambling letter and I hope that you can spare a few minutes to
send me a reply I will be very grateful.

Yours Sincerely

468. Stephen C. Redhead

1952 Mar qtr - born at Wellington (Somerset) RD: Stephen C. Redhead (mmn Hully) vol 9a page 341 (FreeBMD).
2018 22 Mar - TImes Higher Education - World University Rankings - An exceptionally bold interdisciplinary scholar
known as “Professor Rave” has died.
Steve Redhead was born in Shropshire (sic) in January 1952 and studied law at what would later
become the University of Manchester. He spent most of his career at what is now Manchester
Metropolitan University, eventually as the world’s first professor of law and popular culture (1997-2003),
and played a major role in the development of entertainment law. He was also the founder of the
Manchester Institute for Popular Culture, where his research on acid house and rave culture earned him
the nickname “Professor Rave”.
After leaving Manchester Metropolitan, Professor Redhead was a visiting professor at Murdoch
University, Australia (2002-03), and then chair of the Creative Industries Taskforce for the government of
Western Australia (2003-04). He returned to the UK as professor of sport and media at the University of
Brighton (2005-11) and, after shorter stints at the University of Ontario Institute of Technology and the
University of Bolton, became professor of sports media and later professor of jurisprudence at Charles
Sturt University in Australia (2013-15). He ended his career as professor of cultural studies at Flinders
University, also in Australia, where vice-chancellor Colin Stirling described him as “a global citizen who
was never afraid to push boundaries”, who had “influenced and inspired tens of thousands of students”
and left “a legacy of cultural inspiration”.
Utterly committed to interdisciplinarity and the potential of new digital media, Professor Redhead
published 17 books and hundreds of articles in areas ranging from football, popular music and leisure
to socio-legal studies. He was also known as a leading interpreter of the work of Paul Virilio and Jean
Baudrillard. His latest book, Theoretical Times (2017), drew on his podcasts and vodcasts and used
such thinkers to develop alternatives to a political scene dominated by populism, neoliberalism and the
rise of the far right. He had also finished a book titled Trump Studies: An Intellectual Guide to Why
Citizens Vote Against their Interests but left uncompleted Moving on Up: Physical Cultural Studies in
Third-Tier Cities, which his widow, Tara Brabazon, professor of cultural studies at Flinders, will prepare
for publication.
Martin James, professor of music industries at Southampton Solent University, recalled how Professor
Redhead had been crucial in helping him to move on from journalism and gain the “confidence to
embrace academia. He gave so much to the academic community through his game-changing work.
But he also gave a huge amount through those moments of quiet support, the positive comments on
social media, the confidence-boosting advice and the inclusive conversation.”
Professor Redhead died of pancreatic cancer on 8 March and is survived by Professor Brabazon.

2017 15 Sep - Information from John Paul Hulley:
My grandparents purchased a house at 14 Hyde Park Avenue, London N21, I think in 1929 or very soon
after. They moved from there on my grandfather’s retirement in 1965; to 6 Stone Park, Broadsands,
Churston, Devon. In 1939 they should all have been at Hyde Park Avenue.
My grandfather was too old to be called up at the beginning of the war. I do know that my father was
briefly evacuated and my grandmother went with him (they didn’t like it so braved the bombs instead) so
I will check when and also when my grandfather was called up. It may explain your not finding them in
1939.
Grandfather finished the war in Germany having landed at Normandy after D Day. He was a motorcycle
dispatch rider during that time. As an aside, my parents bought 12 Hyde Park Avenue and we were
neighbours to my grandparents until they moved.
