    3. Roberta, thank you for sending the latest info on Derriaghy (Derryaghy). This atlas is a much better resource than the map I was using here at home. This really makes sense as I am checking out associated names that settled around James Fulton at the time he went to Augusta County and am getting several different county names but all seem to center around Derriaghy so we are in the right area. Yes, Hugh and Elinor Johnston's marriage and the baptismal records of the children are documented but beyond that we have only the previously printed resources to rely on. These early settlers appear to have passed through Lancaster and Chester County, Pennsylvania on their way to Virginia. Some births and data, however, are recorded as occurring in Connecticut (the George Henderson family) and Massachusetts (John Lewis Family, the first settler's family). This branch of the Fulton family is one of the earlier Fulton families as they were in Virginia by 1739-40 whereas many did not come over until some years later. This does narrow the field down somewhat on our branch. Here are some tidbits recently sent to me that I haven't fully taken advantage of due to the deaths of two sisters-in-law last week on the same day, but they may be helpful to others helping document this trail.
