although i notice you say he was born around 1834
I haven't worked out the relevance of this yet but in 1841 there's a John Hullock aged 3, parents William and Allice and various siblings in Dalton in Furness. Next door is a family of Postlethwaites. The mother Postlethwaite is Agnes which is the same as Ann's mother in 1881 (I think or 71) although there is no Ann in 1841.
Hi Night Owl. Ive come across this myself and wondered about it. is that the 1841 census? does it say in the Postlethwaite family that mother Agnes was a sailors wife ?
