I think maybe in the past I have been to the Penn Portal. Also just to confuse things and from all of my research it now seems that Henry’s original name is FULLUM, changed to Fuller somewhere along the line. All good love to find new things.

Looks like another lot of research on old Henry, just trying to verify (clarify) the statements made. I may try and research (may need to find information at NARA) re the guy who hired Henry, this John Walton used Henry as a substitute. Very interesting and as usual if I can find more scraps of information on Henry I’m happy. LOL.
