Reference: Note from Skip Fulton <skipfulton@hotmail.com> regarding Scottish origins of Australian Fultons dated 20 Aug 1999 Dear Skip, ROOTSWEB has now provided a menu-driven interface to search the archives of the discussion lists. It can be reached at: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl Specify the fulton-l list and then the appropriate search string. This will allow you to search old messages on the Fulton discussion list. I searched for Australia and came up with the following notes enclosed at the end of this note. Perhaps you will want to search for other geographic areas or specific names, which may give you some leads. Also check out the ROOTS-L surname list at http://rsl.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/rslsql.cgi Specify Fulton and it will give an outline of people who are searching the Fulton surname along with the migration path they are studying. I strongly recommend that everyone submits an entry to ROOTS-L. Good luck. Roberta R.

She included a "tree", and on it is an Ann Fulton, born Scotland 1832, a hand sewer, who married a James Greer, a tailor, in 1858. They both emigrated to the USA. They married in Ireland, so the family must have moved from Scotland to the USA via Ireland. I know that it is a long shot, but I suppose that it is just possible that one of the members of your set up is a descendant in the USA who does not realise that they have Australian relatives. If anything comes up I could put in touch. Best wishes Bernard <butcher731@aol.com> ************************************************************** Regards & Best Wishes to You.

I am trying to research my GGG-GF in Scotland. Andrew Fulton married Catherine Semple in Dunfermline Fife in 1831. They moved to Glasgow and settled there. One of their children was Robert Fulton (my line) who was christened in 1837 in Barony Lanarkshire. The decendants from him on my line have been attained however I cannot find any info on Andrew F & C Semple. I have looked at the actual marriage film at the LDS and it docuements nothing about their date of births... *********************************************************************
