I have done some research and have found the following additional information. Thompson and Sarah are enumerated on the 1870 and 1880 U. S. census in Keithsburg Twp., Mercer Co., Illinois, and the 1900 census in Geneva Twp., Fillmore Co., Nebraska. On the 1900 Soundex for New Boston Twp., Mercer Co., Illinois, I found an Edward J. FULTON, born Apr. 1860, age 40, place of birth Pennsylvania with wife Clio, b. Nov. 1868, age 31, place of birth Illinois and son Clinton, b. Mar. 1896, age 4, place of birth Illinois. Also enumerated is Sam B. ATWATER, father-in-law, b. Mar. 1835, age 65, place of birth Ohio. I believe this to be James Edward in your list above. In the 1900 census Harvey E. FULTON is enumerated with Thompson and Sarah. In the 1920 U. S. census for Lincoln, Lancaster Co., Nebraska, I found George B. COOPER, age 45, b. Illinois with wife Tessa R., age 44, b. Illinois, daughter Marjorie F., age 17, b. Illinois and brother-in-law Harvey E. FULTON, age 55, b. Illinois.
