General Notes: Husband - Richard Fulton, Sr.


He came to America in 1722, in company with some relatives, and was among the earliest settlers in Paxtang, Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. His farm was situated on the bank of the Susquehanna river, just below Harrisburg, a portion of it being later included in the limits of that city. His will was probated at Lancaster, November 11, 1774, of which his sons-in-law, Moses Wallace and Hugh Wilson, were the executors. The inventory of the estate, made by them on the 6th of December following, gives the value of his plantation, £1,200, and that of his farming implements, etc., £340 6s. 6d., making a total of £1,540 6s. 6d.
