Continuing with the Fulton and Wynkoop family connections... Who was the father of Margaret Fulton who married Cornelius Wynkoop in 1787? According to Richard Wynkoop's summary (family #196), Cornelius and Margaret (Fulton) Wynkoop were the parents of Catherine Wynkoop, b abt 1790, who in turn, m abt 1810, John Newell and was the mother of six children: 1. George W. Newell, b 1813 2. John Blackledge Newell, b 25 Oct 1816 3. Margaret N. Newell, b 1818 4. Sydonia N. Newell, b abt 1819 5. David F. Newell, b abt 1820, d infancy 6. Catherine Ann Newell, b abt 1824 YES! The name of child number 5, David F. Newell, is consistent with the theory that Catherine (Wynkoop) Newell was the granddaughter of David and Elisabeth (Yerkes) Fulton. * * * * * Another Fulton marriage at Christ Church, Philadelphia: A few months BEFORE the marriage of David and Elisabeth (Yerkes) Fulton, another Fulton marriage took place at the same church in Philadelphia: On 20 August 1755, Robert Fulton married Eleanor Wyncoop. (Ref: Marriages of Christ Church, p 96.) Author Richard Wynkoop speculated that "Eleanor" was actually "Nelle or Nelly" Wynkoop, daughter of Cornelius and Helena (Van de Grift) Wynkoop, [Family #44]. Further, he suggests that Eleanor/Nelle/Nelly's younger sister, Helena, b 26 Oct 1743, d 15 Nov 1762 [sic], married David Fulton "Senior" at the Abington Presbyterian Church. [Now my transcript of the Abington Church Marriages includes a marriage between a David Fulton and a Helen Wynkoop on 30 March 1762. Was this marriage performed in 1761 or 1762? Where does the reference to a David Fulton "Senior" come from?] * * * * * According to author Richard Wynkoop, the Wynkoop family was originally settled near Kingston, New York. Grandson Cornelius Wynkoop (Gerret5, Cornelius1), was born 1700 at Kingston, NY, ... "removed about the year 1717 with his father's family to Moreland, Montgomery Co [sic -- not organized until 1784, therefore Philadelphia County] PA and perhaps thence to Bucks County in 1727." Who were Robert and David Fulton who married at the Christ Church in Philadelphia in 1755? Who was David Fulton who married Helen Wynkoop in 1761/62 at the Abington Presbyterian Church? Other Fulton marriages at the Abington Presbyterian Church: 1762 (or 1761?), March 30: David Fulton to Helen Wyncoop [sic] 1768, September 8: James Fulton m Sarah Van Court/Vancourt 1787, January 25: Margaret Fulton m Cornelius Wynkoop 1793, October 3: Josepeh Fulton m Anne Crawford [Oooooh, there's another Crawford connection!] Patrice (Fulton) Stark Lone Tree, Colorado
