Joseph M. Bulla

Joseph M. Bulla, son of Thomas Bulla, and early settler, was born where his father first settled, on the Elkhorn, in the southeast part of Wayne township. He was married to Nancy Wilson, and settled in the township of Boston, about five miles from Richmond, where he now resides. They had eleven children, three sons and eight daughters. Besides sundry trusts of minor importance, Mr. B. held, from 1842 to 1848, the office of county commissioner, and was soon after elected a representative of the county in the state legislature.
