Hi, I've hit a complete brick wall that I can not seem to get past and it's been an ongoing one for about a year now. (very common name, Wm. Fuller, talk about frustrating!) If anyone could offer me advice, point me in the right direction, shed some light on this, or knows this family, please, please, please contact me. I'd love to get past this brick wall. This is what I've found and pieced together. My Grandmother and Grandfather are Geo. Wm Fuller and Lillian Pearl Twiner below. I was told by my Gr'ma that Gr'pa's parents both died when he was around 9 (1900) of pnemonia, just a few months apart. His 1/2 sister, (Ula) by his Dad's first marriage, married that same year and took in her younger 3 1/2 sibs and raised them. From this census, I don't think that Nannie was the Mother of Ula since she was 20 and Ula was 12 (only 8 yrs diff) so there's a first wife somewhere. From this census you can see that Wm. O has a bro and sis living w/him. I sent off for the 2 marr. records that I knew of for Wm. O Fuller and B.F. Fuller was surety on both. If B.F. is not a bro, he's somehow closely related because B.F. and C.B. Fuller had 2 infants to die who are buried right next to an infant that Ula Fuller Mauldin had (Sunflower Co., MS). Ok, I know that Wm was in Leflore Co in 1880 so i went to the 1870 census. Leflore did not become a Co til 1871 so I looked at the surrounding Cos w/no luck (Sunflower, Tallahatchie, Grenada, & Carroll). I can't look at 1890 (urgh, burned!) and they died in 1900~! So where do I go from here w/the name William Fuller? That's almost as bad as John Smith! Well.......not quite, but almost! Does anyone on the Fuller list claim the Wm. H. Fuller who married Mary V. Largueran in 1867 in Warren Co? I thought maybe this might be Wm's first marriage. Any help would be "greatly appreciated~" Mandy 1880 Census: Fuller, William 30 b. in MS living in LeFlore Co.
