    1. Jacob Fuller, b. 1792 Massachusetts
    2. William and Dorothy Fuller
    3. Despite several break-throughs with this family recently, two mysteries persist that, just maybe, someone else on this list has been able to solve. Here is what we think we know with a decently high degree of assurance: Jacob Fuller, born 30 Mar 1972 in Royalston, Massachusetts. Married Elizabeth Dunn. Moved to Seneca, Ontario County, New York, where three children were born: William Whaley in 1828, John Spencer in 1830, and Charles W. in 1834. The family can be found there in the 1850 and 1860 Census enumerations but not in the 1870 Census. Curiously, Jacob filed an affidavit in 1856 in Washington County, Vermont, in an effort to obtain his father's (also named Jacob) Revolutionary War veteran's pension. We lose all track of Jacob after the 1860 Ontario County, New York, Census. Also, while we have data on two of his sons, William Whaley and John Spencer, we cannot find any record of the third son, Charles W., after the 1860 Census entry. By that time, Charles had married Catherine and had two children, Sarah J., born about 1858, and Napoleon, born about 1859. We're still faced with the questions of what became of Jacob Fuller after the 1860 Ontario County, NY, Census, and what became of his son Charles W. Fuller and his family. Any illumination of these conundrums will be most gratefully appreciated. Regards, William H. (Bill) Fuller http://members.mato.com/wfuller
