    3. Hello Harley, There were Fuller folk there earlier... see the tagline/link at the bottom of your message below... click on "Whittingham" http://www.rootsweb.com/~vtwindha/VT_Gazetteer-Whitingham.htm (tip: use your browser's "Edit, Find on this page" find utility, enter Fuller see all on the page) (listed below} WHITINGHAM SCENERY. In the northerly part of the town there is a pond, in early times called Beaver dam, but of late, Fuller pond. It formerly covered 50 acres, and is so situated as to have an outlet at each end, both of which reach the Deerfield, on near the north part of Whitingham and the other near Shelburne Falls, but nearly 30 miles apart. This body of water has decreased in size so that in a dry season less than five acres are covered with water. Traces of the old dam, probably built centuries ago, are still viable, and under the surface may be found parts of trees of considerable size bearing tooth marks of the beaver. FIRST THINGS. The grand list of 1781 shows who paid the taxes at that time and indicates to some extent the population of the town.
