-----Original Message----- From: Masonline@webtv.net [mailto:Masonline@webtv.net] Looking for imformation on the fuller family that lived in western New York. that was said to be Indian? Eveline fuller she then married a frank.......shirley Shirley: My great-great-grandfather, illegit. So had his mother's name (Charles FULLER was in the Civil War and was discharged (honorably) from Leavenworth, KS, and made his way back to CT where he married my great-great-grandmother in Hartford CT in 1875. Here's the connection: according to the gov't pension file he had a wife in western NY (maybe close to Bradford cty PA where he had family) This western NY wife was supposedly named Adelaide (any number of spellings) and supposedly they had a son (between 1865 & 1875) named Willy (William??) The first wife was never mentioned in CT and never really identified by the pension file, but supposedly she died and he moved on, leaving son with her family. Before he settled in CT he was supposedly in turn, a pest, a nuisance, a freeloader, and a rogue - gleaned from relatives' statements, esp his great aunt Cecelia FULLER WIARD, in Ohio. Does ANY of this connect to anything you have in western NY? I'd love to get a picture of those 10 missing years, and he may have been with your Fuller's in New York. I know I've rambled a bit an told lots of extraneously detail, but wanted to get out most of the deadends on this character of mine. Hope to hear from you. Paul Bomely
