Hi Kathy! Was very interested to see your post. By coincidence, William Fuller's son, Aspinwall Fuller was born about 1851 at Clifton Staten Island. Wish they had listed William's occupation in the 1860 census!!! The other coincidence is that William's eldest son on the 1860 census, William Jr (William L. Fuller born about 1847 NY on later census) became a steamboat clerk and lived in New Jersey after marrying in NY. Some of the later census of William Jr indicate that William Fuller Sr was born in Boston Massachusetts - but the 1880 census says NY. I will definitely keep your message on file. You never know if there might be a link. Thank you very much for sharing your information. Hopefully, someone might be able to identify William Sr in 1850 and 1870 census (born about 1830) NY. Best wishes, Judy Jones Subject: Wm Fuller NY 1850? Hi everyone! I am helping a FULLER descendant find his ancestors. He also has been told that his Fullers are related to the Mayflower Fullers. I found his family in New York City in 1860, but have never been able to identfy them in 1850 and 1870. Is anyone able to help please. This might give us the clues to find William Fuller's origins. Aspinwall Fuller was the direct ancestor and he became an engineer. Sue Fuller, his mother was Susan Taylor BLACK dau of Furman BLACK and Sarah Ann ROGERS. Sarah Ann Rogers was the dau of Moses Rogers, the Captain of the "Savannah" the first steam ship to cross the Atlantic. I know that William FULLER was dead by 1880. 1860 census NYC (Third Division, 18th Ward) William Fuller 30yrs born NY (no occupation listed) Sue Fuller 30yrs born Penn William Fuller 13yrs Howard Fuller 11yrs Aspinwall Fuller 9yrs Daisy Fuller 4yrs Ellen Dunn 29yrs servant born Ireland Hoping someone can help find this family in 1850 and 1870. Would be very much appreciated. Thanking you Best wishes, Judy Jones -- No virus found in this outgoing message. Checked by AVG Anti-Virus.
