The unverified "West Wheeling, OH Pioneer Families" file in 2010 in Ancestry.com states John is son of Joseph Stull (b. 1640) and Katharine Sutfin (b. 1641).
A file in Ancestry.com in 2013 offers: "John Stull, Sr. b. c. 1700-10 in Germany. Arrived in Philadelphia, Pa., about 1730, after being "cast away" at sea on the voyage to America. He married Martha Jones, daughter of Mr. Jones (Jonas?) of Philadelphia, a Swede, and his wife, an Irish woman. They moved to Monocacy Colony in western Maryland, which was in Frederick Co., then called Prince George's Co., Md., and later Washington Co., Md. John built a grist mill on Antietam Creek, and was a miller. He owned plantations "Whiskey" and "Brandy" there.

Excerpts from writings of Jack Geary:
Margaret Stull was the daughter of John Stull and Martha Jones of Philadelphia, Pa. In one record it is stated that John Stull was a German, and another adds that he was a Swedish gentleman of good family and ample fortune. He was shipwrecked on the American Coast and remained a resident of Philadelphia, Pa. He married Martha Jones. From this union there was issue Daniel, John Jr., Jacob, Isaac, Abram, Elizabeth, Mary, Catherine, Margaret and Susan.
John Stull, Jr., married Sarah White a daughter of John White and Sarah Leonard, who were the parents of Peter White, who married Margaret Stull. This John Stull, Jr. was a Col. in the Revolution. He had for his second wife Mrs. Mercy Ross, widow of Geo. Ross and sister of Gen. Otho Holland Williams. By John Stull, Jr. first marriage to Martha White there was issue one son Daniel, a Captain in the Revolution, and three daughters, Martha, Susannah and Letitia. The two last married brothers Mark and Martin Hardin of Kentucky, where their posterity still reside. Martha married William Torrance, a half brother of Hugh Torrance who was the third and last husband of Martha Jones. (By this it would apper that Martha Jones married the half brother of her grand-daughter's husband which I rather question.)
From the second wife of Col. John Stull, Jr. there was issue, Mercy, Matilda, John Isaac, Otho and Holland. Mercy married James Kendall; Matilda married George Smoot;John Isaac maried his first cousin Prudence Williams, residing in Georgetown, Md. He was a gallant officer in the Way of 1812. Otho married Letitia Hall residing in Hagerstown, Md. He, though old, was an officer in the late Rebellion. Holland married Dr. Harrison of Martinsburg, Va.
Of the other children of John Stull and Martha Jones, Elizabeth married a Mr. Johnson and moved to South Carolina. She and one of her sons were scalped by the Indians, both survived. Mary married Harmon Greathouse residing on the Ohio River near Wheeling; their sons were terrible fellows among the Indians, old Harmon was taken prisoner by the Indians, as was also Daniel Stull, son of Col. John Stull, Jr., on his was to Kentucky. Daniel married Mary Beaty, daughter of Col. Beaty of Manocacy; Catherine and Susan married brothers, John and Charles Swearingquin and had large families, many of them went to Kentucky; Margaret married Peter White.
Our Martha Jones was a daughter of a Mr. Jones, a native of Sweeden, who married a Miss Whaley, an Irish lady, after coming to this country. (Another record states that this Jones was a Welshman and Miss Whaley, English.)
The parents of Peter White, our great great grandfather, were John White and Sarah Leonard; both of whom were English. John White was a resident of Threwsberry, N.Y. prior to the Revolution. He was born in England, tracing his ancestry through a long and respectable lineage. Sarah Leonard was an accomplished beautiful and remarkable active woman, born in the province of New Jersey. She was celebrated as a graceful and skillful rider, also as a devoted church woman. She is said to have inherited a fortune. The family estate was called Shrewsbury and is so known on the records of New Jersey. John White, Jr. a son, was sent to England to recover a large estate accumulated by his uncle, William White, at the Cape of Good Hope, who died a bachelor and intestate. The estate was large but was lost to the American Heirs through the mismanagement of the said John White, Jr., who spent quite large sums in dissipation while in Europe. The result of this was embarrassment of home and the removal of the family to Maryland where the mother Sarah Leonard White died shortly afterward. Of the union of John White and Sarah Leonard there was issue five sons and four daughters; John, Peter, Leonard, Thomas and James. Abigail, Catherine, Sarah and Ruth.
John married and settled near Easton, Penn. and had a large family; Peter married Margaret Stull, our great great grandparents; Leonard married Mary McCoy and settled in Fayette Co., Pa. His widow married Benjamin Bloomfield. Thomas died unmarried. James married Sarah Clark and settled near Leonard. His widow with one son emigrated to Kentucky. Abigail married first Rev. W. DeButts and later John Furgeson; Catherine married Peter Jones; Sarah married John Stull the brother of Margaret Stull. Ruth married Peter Bainbridge, the son of her Aunt Abigail.
The second wife of John White was Martha Stull (nee Jones) widow of John Stull. This marriage was followed by the marriages of Peter White to Margaret Stull and John Stull, Jr., to Martha White. Thus did father, son and daughter marry mother, daughter and son.
John White had two brothers William and Peter White, neither of whom married, and one sister Abigail, all of whom resided in Shrewsbury, N.J. Abigail married Petr Bainbridge and was the mother of Johh, Edmund, Peter and Absolom. Absolom married a Miss Phillips and was the father of Commodore William Bainbridge of our Navy.
All of the Whites, Leonards and Bainbridges were of English extraction. The Whites are closely connectd with the Throckmortons. The Whites Coat of Arms was an emblazonry of a spread eagle and a white horse.
