In response to David Fultons question on the two James Fultons. A very competent researcher, Mrs. Katharine Bushman, who is now deceased did the research in Augusta County, Virginia. She used church records and cemetery records that she herself compiled from primary source data to verify our James Fulton. Everything she did was thoroughly documented. There are also two McClure family Bibles that have James Fulton and Elizabeth Mitchell's marriage. This marriage can also be verified in the Augusta County, Virginia marriage records. Elizabeth's sister's grandson, John McClure, was clearly the heir to James Fulton and Elizabeth Mitchell's estate in 1834. Our William Fulton was omitted in Chalkley's records but Mrs. Bushman found his will in Augusta Co. records. Yes, there are known errors and omissions in Chalkley's records. The Fulton Family has many members who remained unmarried or married late in life. At least three of William Fulton and Margaret Lusk's children never married. We know the connection between John Fulton m. Mary Steele to our William because they are both found in James Fulton, d.1753's will. It left instructions for land to be purchased for William Fulton who was still living at home. John Fulton handled this purchase and sold it to William after the eldest son James Fulton died. This land transaction can be verified by land transactions. James Fulton who was born April 15, 1751 and served in the Revolutionary War is the one that moved to Gallia County, Ohio. James Fulton, son of John Fulton & Mary Steele did not serve in the Rev. War and he was born 10 August 1755; died 14 February 1834 and was buried in Augusta County. There is an error in Aull's book with the wrong birth date for James. This has since been corrected by Aull. If you look at the Augusta map showing Borden's grant and Beverly's grant, you can see the close proximity of John and William's land. Norma Jennings
