Fulton Family Mysteries

Here are some items that would be of particular value to researchers of this family:

1. Connect Robert Fulton (father of James) either back to Ireland/Scotland or to the other Fulton families in the Delaware River basin.
2. Find any mention of any other Sparburn anywhere or at any time. Or figure out the name for which Sparburn is a corruption.
3. Where are Catherine and Robery buried?
4. Did James have any siblings or half-siblings who began their own Fulton lines?
5. Decipher the Tuel family history, not to mention Offutt and Beall. And is there a connection to the well-known Pratt family of Maryland (based on Elealah's middle name)?
6. What was Theodore's middle name??
7. Does any of Anastasia's pottery still exist?
8. A certain John Fulton lived in York Co, SC before James and Anastasia arrived and died in 17__. Relative or just a coincidence? (I have his estate papers and can find no clue in them except that he appeared to be a bachelor and perhaps without close relatives to handle his estate.)
9. The Mormons have a copy of the business records of the Kings Mountain Iron Works stored in Salt Lake City. If anyone visit there, they would be worth looking into because of the long connection between the Fultons and the Works.
10. Who was Jerome B. Fulton, born in Cleveland Co, NC in 1830? (Shows up in IGI without parents.)
