Hannah Tull was the wife of Edward Tull of Peasemore, Berkshire. In the 1851 census Edward is listed as JP for Berkshire, and owner and occupier of 765 Acres. He probably died in 1859, as in 1861 Hannah was listed as a widowed landed proprietor living with her daughter and son in law, Ann and Francis Fleming, at Kidmore End, Caversham, in Oxfordshire. In 1871 she was living with her other daughter and son in law, Elizabeth and George Trevor at 48 Queen's Gardens, Paddington. It would probably be here that the three photos were taken.
The Tull family were influential in Streatley (where they farmed Southridge), in Thatcham (where the Tull brothers Richard and Henry owned Crookham House and Chamberhouse), and another Richard Tull lived in London where he, his son and his grandson were all involved in the brewing industry at Eliots Brewery, later Watneys. Edward Tull of Peasemore is likely to be the son of another Edward, and nephew of Richard and Henry of Thatcham.
