Edward was also sealed as a child to 2nd wife Frances on 7 Nov 1944 SL.

[Caleb Johnson, Edward Fuller from the Alphabetical Listing of Mayflower Passengers,  (Mayflower Web Pages, 1995-1999), "Electronic."]

ANCESTRAL SUMMARY:
Edward Fuller was the son of Robert and Sara (Dunkhorn) Fuller of Redenhall, Norfolk, England.  Some accounts give his mother as Francis, but Francis appears to be Robert Fuller's second wife.  Robert's first wife Sara was buried 1 July 1584, and thus would have been the mother of Edward Fuller.  Edward Fuller's brother Samuel Fuller also came to America on the Mayflower.  Edward Fuller married, and moved to Leyden, South Holland, Netherlands for a short time before coming to America.

The name of his wife is not known.  James Savage, in his "Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England" says Edward Fuller's wife was named Ann, but there is no evidence to show this is in fact the case.

The following marriages of Edward Fullers were found in the parish register abstractions of the I.G.I. and one of them may very well be the Edward Fuller of the Mayflower:

Amy Lee, 21 November 1596, Abinger, County Surrey, England
Ann Carpenter, 25 November 1597, Carlton, Bedford
Thomasine Sheppard, 2 May 1597, St. Gregory, Norwich, Norfolk
Joan Raven, 28 October 1599, Woodham Walter, Essex
Elizabeth Buck, 25 July 1602, Great Finborough, Suffolk
Barbara Colman, 10 June 1606, Chigwell, Essex
Agnes Croucher, 14 January 1607, West Horsley, Surrey

BIOGRAPHICAL SUMMARY:
Edward Fuller, his wife, and his son Samuel came to America on the Mayflower.  They had lived in Leyden, South Holland, Netherlands for a short period of time, but originally came from Redenhall, Norfolk, England.  Edward Fuller's father was a butcher by trade, and his brother Samuel was a doctor and deacon.  Edward's occupation, however, remains unknown.  He and his wife both died the first winter.

!Was also sealed as a child to 2nd wife Frances on 7 Nov 1944 SL.

The sheet shows she married William White on 1 July 1612 and died in Oct 1680 but the dates do not seem to fit. The date seem to fit the last child in the family Susanna which may be the same person. The sheet also shows a 2nd marriage to Ed. Winslow on 12 May 1621 but this also seems to fit the last

Susanna.

Widow of William White who died at Plymouth in 1621.

A problem as to whether this Susanna is the same individual as the 3rd child Susanna or Ann Fuller. Also a question as to the mother. May have second marriage to Edward Winslow on 12 May 1621 as this is shown or the 3rd child Ann or Susanna.

Note says John Fuller's father's will which was dated 11 May 1638 mentions sons John and William who were in New England. If they should return to Eng. his son George was to give them additional money. Should there be a George in this family ? The will mentioned is evidently William Fuller, Johns brother. Is George his son. It is mentioned that William and wife Frances had no children.

"In the results of Mr. Dexter's researches among the records of Holland, published in a volume entitled 'The England and Holland of the Pilgrims,' Samuel1 Fuller is mentioned as a witness Oct. 7, 1611, to the betrothal of Degory Priest, and to that of William White Jan. 27, 1612."

"...witness...to the betrothal...of Samuel Terry May 16, 1614."

"...was a witness Aug. 7, 1615, to the betrothal of Samuel Butler, and that of Edmond Jessup Sept. 16, 1615."

"...Samuel fuller witnessed the betrothal of John Goodman Sept. 16, 1619.  He joined with Isaac Allerton, Mr. Bradford and Mr. Winslow June 10, 1620, in a letter concerning the affairs of the Pilgrims, to their associates, Mr. Carver and Mr. Cushman, then in England.

"The Pilgrims left Holland for America about Aug. 1, 1620, by way of Southampton, County Hampshire, England, and Samuel1 Fuller's name appears as one of the signers of the "Compact" drawn up for the government of the Colony at Cape Cod, in November, 1620, in the vicinity of what is now Provincetown, Mass. Some days later the Pilgrims made a permanent landing and settled at what is now Plymouth, Mass."

Mention having been made of a "Fuller Fund" for the support of the ministry of the Plymouth church, the foundation of said fund being the proceeds derived from the sale of a plot of ground on Leyden Street given to the church for a parsonage by Mrs. Bridget (Lee) Fuller, widow of Dr. Samuel Fuller, and Samuel Fuller his son, I wrote the pastor of the Congregational church in Plymouth and received the following: "The fund you wrote about is the "Fuller Ministerial Fund," which is used for the purpose named in your note, but not from the source you mentioned. That place was sold and the money used. The "fund" came from an unborn calf. I mean that the calf was bequeathed before it came into the world, and the proceeds of it when a cow was allowed to accumulate, and it has grown into the thousands. This is the history of the "Fuller Ministerial Fund."
Readers are referred to the item in Dr. Samuel's will, given above, relative to "the first cow calfe that my Browne Cow shall have."

. . . and in the end, after he had much helped others, Samuel Fuller who was their surgeon and physician and had been a great help and comfort unto them.  As in his faculty, so otherwise being a deacon of the church, a man godly and forward to do good, being much missed after his death.  And he and the rest of their brethren much lamented by them and caused much sadness and mourning amongst them, which caused them to humble themselves and seek the Lord; and towards winter it pleased the Lord the sickness ceased.

Samuel Fuller & the Leiden Separatists
That Samuel Fuller was considered a leader in the Pilgrim community in Leiden can be seen from the following letter of June 1620 between the Leyden Committee and their agents in London concerning changes in the agreement with the Merchant Adventurers who were financing the Pilgrims' voyage to and settlement in North America :
"To their loving friends John Carver and Robert Cushman, these, etc.
"Good brethren, after salutations, etc. We received divers letters at the coming of Mr. Nash and our pilot, which is a great encouragement unto us, and for whom we hope after times will minister occasion of praising God. And indeed, had you not sent him, many would have been ready to faint and go back, partly in respect of the new conditions which have been taken up by you (which all men are against), and partly in regard of our own inability to do any one of those many weighty businesses you refer to us here. For the former whereof, whereas Robert Cushman desires reasons for our dislike, promising thereupon to alter the same, or else saying we should think he hath no brains, we desire him to exercise them therein, referring him to our pastor's former reasons, and them to the censure of the godly wise. But our desires are that you will not entangle yourselves and us in any such unreasonable courses as those are; viz. that the merchants should have the half of men's houses and lands at the dividend, and that persons should be deprived of the two days in a week agreed upon, yea every moment of time for their own Particular; by reason whereof we cannot conceive why any should carry servants for their own help and comfort, for that we can require no more of them than all men one of another. This we have only be relation from Mr. Nash, and not from any writing of your own, and therefore hope you have not proceeded far in so great a thing without us. But requiring you not to exceed the bounds of your commission, which was to proceed upon the things or conditions agreed upon and expressed in writing (at your going over about it), we leave it; not without marveling that yourself, as you write, knowing how small a thing troubleth our consultations, and how few, as you fear, understands the business aright, should trouble us with such matters as these are, etc...
"Thus beseeching the Almighty, who is all sufficient to raise us out of this depth of difficulties, to assist us herein; raising such means by His providence and fatherly care for us, His poor children and servants, as we may with comfort behold the hand of our God for good towards us in this our business which we undertake in His name and fear, we take leave and remain

Samuel Fuller : Signer of the Mayflower Compact
"I shall ... begin with a combination made by them before they came ashore ; being the first foundation of their government in this place. Occasioned partly by the discontented and mutinous speeches that some of the strangers amonst them had let fall from them in the ship: That when they came ashore they would use their own liberty, for none had power to command them, the patent they had being for Virginia and not for New England... And partly that such an act by them done, this their condition considered, might be as firm as any patent, and in some respects more sure.
"The form was as followeth : IN THE NAME OF GOD, AMEN. We whose names are underwritten, the loyal subjects of our dread Sovereign Lord King James, by the Grace of God of Great Britain, France and Ireland King, Defender of the Faith, etc. Having undertaken, for the Glory of God and advancement of the Christian Faith and Honour of our King and Country, a Voyage to plant the First Colony in the Northern parts of Virginia, do by these presents solemnly and mutually in the presence of God and one of another, Covenant and Combine ourselves together into a Civil Body Politic, for our better ordering and preservation and furtherance of the ends aforesaid; and by virtue hereof to enact, constitute and frame such just and equal Laws, Ordinances, Acts, Constitutions and Offices, from time to time, as shall be thought most meet and convenient for the general good of the Colony, unto which we promise all due submission and obedience. In witness whereof we have hereunder subscribed our names at Cape Cod, the 11th of November, in the year of the reign of our Sovereign Lord King James, of England, France and Ireland the eighteenth, and of Scotland the fifty-fourth.

Samuel & Bridget Fuller and the 1623 Division of Land
The 1623 Division of Land marked the end of the Pilgrims' earliest system of land held in common by all. Governor Bradford explains it in this way:
"And so assigned to every family a parcel of land, according to the proportion of their number, for that end, only for present use (but made no division for inheritance) and ranged all boys and youth under some family. This had very good success, for it made all hands very industrious, so as much more corn was planted than otherwise would have been by any means the Governor or any other could use, and saved him a great deal of trouble, and gave far better content. The women now went willingly into the field, and took their little ones with them to set corn; which before would allege weakness and inability; whom to have compelled would have been thought great tyranny and oppression."
William Bradford, Of Plymouth Plantation 1620-1647, ed. Samuel Eliot Morison (New York : Knopf, 1991), p. 120.

Plymouth Colony Records, Deeds, &c, Vol I 1627-1651 is the oldest record book of the Plymouth settlement. It begins with the 1623 Division of Land, recorded in the handwriting of Governor William Bradford. The lands of Samuel Fuller are among those "The Falles of their grounds which came first over in the May Floure, according as thier lotes were case" and described as "these lye on the South side of the brooke."

Samuel & Bridget Fuller and the 1627 Division of Cattle
Plymouth Colony Records, Vol. I also tells of the 1627 Division of Cattle:
"At a publique court held the 22th of May it was concluded by the whole Companie, that the cattell wch were the Companies, to wit, the Cowes & the Goates should be equally devided to all the psonts of the same company ... & so the lotts fell as followeth, thirteene psonts being pportioned to one lot...
"The eaight lot fell to Samuell ffuller & his company Joyned to him his wife (2) Bridgett ffuller (3) Samuell ffuller Junior (4) Peeter Browne (5) Martha Browne (6) Mary Browne (7) John fford (8) Martha fford (9) Anthony Anable (10) Jane Anable (11) Sara Anable (12) hanah Anable (13) Thom Morton Senor (14) Damaris Hopkins.
"To this lott fell A Red [h]eyfer Came of the Cow wch belongeth to the poore of the Colony & so is of that Consideration. (viz) thes psonts nominated, to haue half the Increace, the other halfe, with the ould stock, to remain for the vse of the poore.
"To this lott also two shee goats."

Samuel Fuller : a 1626 "Purchaser"
In 1621, King James I authorized the Council for New England to plant and govern land in this area. This Council granted the Peirce Patent, confirming the Pilgrims' settlement and governance of Plymouth. Peirce and his associates, the merchant adventurers, were allotted 100 acres for each settler the Company transported. The Pilgrims had a contract with the Company stating all land and profits would accrue to the Company for 7 years at which time the assets would be divided among the shareholders. Most of the Pilgrims held some stock. The Pilgrims negotiated a more favorable contract with the Company in 1626. In 1627, 53 Plymouth freemen, known as "The Purchasers," agreed to buy out the Company over a period of years. In turn, 12 "Undertakers" (8 from Plymouth and 4 from London) agreed to pay off Plymouth's debts in return for trade benefits.

Samuel Fuller was on of the 53 Plymouth Purchasers. Samuel Fuller had also been involved in the negotiations with the Merchant Adventurers that led to the more favorable contract. Governor William Bradford wrote in his letter book :
"This next year being Anno. 1626, we sent Mr. Allerton into England, partly to make some supply for us, and to see if he could make any reasonable composition with the adventurers and because we well knew that nothing can be done without money, we gave him an order to procure some, binding ourselves to make payment thereof as followeth :
"Know all men by thee presents, that whereas we William Bradford, Governour of Plymouth in New England, and William Brewster, Capt. Miles Standish, Isaac Allerton, Samuel Fuller, Edward Winslow, John Jeney, John Howland, and John Allden; being all inhabitants of Plymouth, aforesaid, are for ourselves, and divers others, our associates, &c. And whereas the said Isaac Allerton (by God's providence) for the necessary occasions of the colony abovesaid, is bound for England; and whereas divers of us above named, have acquainted divers of our worthy and approved friends (by our letters) with our raw and weak estate, and want of ability of ourselves to manage so great an action, as the upholding of the plantation aforesaid. If therefore God shall move the heart or hearts of any of our friends, in compassion of our wants and present straits, to lend us above named, the sum of one hundred pounds sterling, for the space of two years, upon any such terms as shall be agreed upon, between him or them and the said Isaac Allerton, our partner and agent, and deliver the same into his hands for our use; that we, the said William Bradford, William Brewster, &c together with the said Isaac Allerton, do bind ourselves, our heirs, &c. jointly and severally, for the faithful performance of such obligations, conditions, or covenants, as shall be agreed on,&c.

Samuel Fuller : Physician
1622 : "As for those [Indians] (who) were wounded, we were sorry for it, though themselves procured it in not staying in the house, at our command; yet if they would return home with us, our surgeon should heal them."
Mourt's relation : a journal of the Pilgrims at Plymouth, ed. Jordan D. Fiore (Plymouth, Mass. : Plymouth Rock Foundation, 1985), p. 65.

1622 : "At length their [Master Weston's men] coasters returned, having found in their judgment a place fit for plantation, within the bay of the Massachusets at a place called by the Indians Wichaguscusset. To which place the body of them went with all convenient speed, leaving still with us such as were sick and lame, by the Governor's permission, though on their parts undeserved; whom our surgeon, by the help of God, recovered gratis for them, and they fetched home, as occasion served."
Edward Winslow, Good news from New England (1624) as reprinted in: Alexander Young, Chronicles of the Pilgrim Fathers (Boston, Charles C. Little & James Brown, 1851), p. 297.

1629 : "...sundry of those that came from Leyden came over in the ships that came to Salem, where Mr. Endecott had chief command; and by infection that grew among the passengers at sea, it spread also among them ashore, of which many died, some of the scurvy, other of an infectious fever which continued some time amongst them, though our people through God's goodness escaped it. Upon which occasion he writ hither for some help, understanding here was one that had some skill that way and had cured divers of the scurvy, and others of other diseases by letting blood and other means. Upon which his request, the Governor here sent him unto them and also writ to him from whom he received an answer, the which, because it is brief and shows the beginning of their acquaintance and closing in the truth and ways of God, I thought it not unmeet nor without use here to insert it, and another showing the beginning of their fellowship and church estate there. Being as followeth:
"RIGHT WORTHY SIR : It is a thing not usual that servants to one master and of the same household should be strangers; I assure you I desire it not, nay to speak more plainly I cannot be so to you. Gods's People are all marked with one and the same mark and sealed with one and the same seal, and have for the main, one and the same heart guided by one and same spirit of truth...
"I acknowledge myself much bound to you for your kind love and care in sending Mr. Fuller among us, and rejoice much that I am by him satisfied touching your judgments of the outward form of God's worship...

John Endicott."

28 June 1630 [from Salem] : "Sir [William Bradford],
"The gentlemen here lately come over (as I suppose you understand of their arrival ere this, by Jonathan Brewster) are resolved to sit down at the head of Charles river, and they of Matapan purpose to go and plant with them. I have been at Matapan, at the request of Mr. Warham, and let some twenty of these people blood; I had conference with them, till I was weary. Mr. Warham holds that the visible church may consist of a mixed people, godly, and openly ungodly; upon which point we had all our conference, to which, I trust, the Lord will give a blessing. Here is come over, with these gentlemen, one Mr. Phillips (a Suffolk man) who hath told me in private, that if they will have him stand minister, by that calling which he received from the prelates in England, he will leave them : The Governour is a godly, wise, and humble gentleman, and very discreet, and of a fine and good temper. We have some privy enemies in the bay (but blessed be God) more friends; the Governour hath had converence with me, both in private and before sundry others; opposers there is not wanting, and satan is busy; but if the Lord be on our side who can be against us; the Governour hath told me he hoped we will not be wanting in helping them, so that I think you will be sent for : Here is a gentleman, one Mr. Cottington, a Boston man, who told me, that Mr. Cotton's charge at Hampton was, that they should take advice of them at Plymouth, and should do nothing to offend them : Captain Endicott (my dear friend, and a friend to us all) is a second Burrow; the Lord establish him, and us all in every good way of truth : Other things I would have writ of but time prevents me ; again I may be with you before this letter ; remember me unto God in your prayers, and so I take my leave, with my loving salutations to yourself and all the rest.
"Yours in the Lord Christ,
Samuel Fuller"

26 July 1630 [a letter from Salem] : "Being at Salem the 25th of July, being the Sabbath, after the evening exercise Mr. Johnson having received a letter from the Governour, Mr. Winthrop, manifesting the hand of God to be upon them, and against them, at Charlestown, in visiting them with sickness and taking divers from amongst them, not sparing the righteous, but partaking with the wicked in those bodily judgments, it was therefore by his desire, taken into the godly consideration of the best here, what was to be done to pacify the Lord's wrath; and they would do nothing without our advice, I mean those members of our church, there known unto them, viz. Mr. Fuller Mr. Allerton and myself, requiring our voices, as their own, when it was concluded, that the Lord was to be sought in righteousness; and so to that end the sixth day (being Friday) of this present week is set apart, that they may humble themselves before God, and seek him in his ordinances; and that then also such godly persons that are amongst them and known each to other, publicly at the end of their exercise, make known their godly desire, and practice the same, viz. solemnly to enter into covenant with the Lord to walk in his ways; and since they are so disposed of in their outward estates, as to live in three distinct places, each having men of ability amongst them, there to observe the day, and become three distinct bodies; not then intending rashly to proceed to the choice of officers, or the admitting of any other into their society than a few, to wit, such as are well known unto them, promising after to receive in such, by confession, as shall appear to be fitly qualified for that estate; and, as they desired to advise with us, so do they earnestly entreat that the church at Plymouth would set apart the same day, for the same ends, beseeching God as to withdraw his hand of correction, so to establish and direct them in his ways; and though the time be very short, yet since the causes are so urgent, we pray you be provoked to this godly work, wherein God will be honoured, and they and we undoubtedly have sweet comfort in so doing: Be you all kindly saluted in the Lord, together with the rest of our brethren : The Lord be with you and his spirit direct you, in this and all other actions that concern his glory and the good of his :

2 August 1630 : Sir [William Bradford],
"There is come hither a ship (with cattle, and more passengers) on Saturday last ; which brings this news out of England ; that the plague is sore, both in the city and country, and that the University of Cambridge is shut up by reason thereof ; also, that there is like to be a great dearth in the land by reason of a dry season. The Earl of Pembroke is dead, and Bishop Laud is Chancellor of Oxford; and that five sundry ministers are to appear before the High Commission, amongst whom, Mr. Cotton, of Boston, is one. The sad news here is, that many are sick, and many are dead, the Lord in mercy look upon them! Some are here entered into a church covenent, the first four, namely, the Governour, Mr. John Winthrop, Mr. Johnson, Mr. Dudley, and Mr. Willson; since that, five more are joined unto them, and others it is like will add themselves to them daily. The Lord increase them, both in number and holiness, for his mercy;s sake. I here but lose time and long to be at home, I can do them no good, for I want drugs, and things fitting to work with: I purpose to be at home this week (if God permit) and Mr. Johnson, and Captain Endicott will come with me; and upon their offer, I requested the Governour to bear them company, who is desirous to come, but saith he cannot be absent two hours. Mrs. Cottington is dead. Here are divers honest christians that are desirous to see us; some out of love, which they bear to us, and the good persuasion they have of us ; other to see whether we be so evil, as they have heard of us. We have a name of love and holiness to God and his saints; the Lord make us answerable and that it may be more than a name, or else it will do us no good. Be you lovingly saluted, and my sisters, with Mr. Brewster, and Mr. Smith, and all the rest of our friends. The Lord Jesus bless us and the whole Israel of God. Amen.

Samuel Fuller : the UNTRUE Story
In 1637, Thomas Morton of Merrymount, an enemy of the Pilgrims, wrote a bizarre and satirical book called The New English Canaan.   Morton wrote exaggerated and often false accounts of the Pilgrim leaders, including Samuel Fuller. The following are the words of Thomas Morton :

"Of a Doctor made at a Commencement in New Canaan.
"The Church of Plimmouth, having due regard to the weale publike and the Brethren that were to come over, and knowing that they would be busily imployed to make provision for the cure of Soules, and therefore might neglect the body for that time, did hold themselves to be in duety bound to make search for a fitting man, that might be able, (if so neede requir'd,) to take the chardge upon him in that place of imployment : and therefore called a Counsell of the whole Synagoge : amongst which company, they chose out a man that long time had bin nurst up in the tender bosome of the Church : one that had speciall gifts : hee could wright and reade ; nay, more : hee had tane [taken] the oath of adjuration, which is a speciall stepp, yea, and a maine degree unto perferment. Him they weane, and out of Phaos boxe fitt him with special guifts of no lesse worth : they stile him Doctor, and forth they send him to gaine imployment and opinion.
"What luck is it I cannot hit on his name : but I will give you him by a periphrasis, that you may know him when you meete him next.
"Hee was borne at Wrington, in the County of Somerset, where hee was bred a Butcher. Hee weares a longe beard, and a Garment like the Greeke that beggd in Pauls Church. This new made Doctor, comes to Salem to congratulate : where hee findes some are newly come from Sea, and ill at ease.
"He takes the patient, and the urinall : eies the State threr; findes the Crasis Symptomes, and the attomi natantes : and tells the patient that his disease was winde, which he had tane [taken] by gapeing feasting over board at Sea ; but hee would quickly ease him of that greife, and quite expell the winde. And this hee did performe, with his gifts hee had : and then hee handled the patient so handsomely, that hee eased him of all the winde hee had in an instant.
"And yet I hope this man may be forgiven, if hee were made a fitting Plant for Heaven.
"How hee went to worke with his gifts is a question ; yet hee did a great cure for Captaine Littleworth, hee cured him of a disease called a wife : and yet I hope this may may be forgiven, if shee were made a fitting plant for heaven.
"By this meanes hee was allowed 4.p a moneth, and the chirgeon's chest, and made Phisition generall of Salem : where hee exercised his gifts so well, that of full 42, that there hee tooke to cure, there is not one has more cause to complaine, or can say black's his eie. This saved Captaine Littleworths credit, that had truck'd away the vittels : though it brought forth a scandall on the Country by it : and then I hope this man may be forgiven, if they were all made fitting plants for Heaven.
"But in mine opinion, hee deserved to be set upon a palfrey and lead up and downe in triumph throw new Canaan, with a coller of Iurdans about his neck, as was one of like desert in Richard the seconds time through the streets of London, that men might know where to finde a Quacksalver."

Samuel Fuller : His Death
"And seeing it hath pleased Him to give me [William Bradford] to see thirty years completed since these beginnings, and that the great works of His providence are to be observed, I have thought it not unworthy my pains to take a view of the decreasings and increasings of these persons and such changes as hath passed over them and theirs in this thirty years...
"Mr. Fuller his servant died at sea; and after his wife came over he had two children by her, which are living and grown up to years; but he died some fifteen years ago."

1633 : "It pleased the Lord to visit them this year with an infectious fever of which many fell very sick and upward of 20 persons died, men and women, besides children, and sundry of them of their ancient friends which had lived in Holland, as Thomas Blossom, Richard Masterson, with sundry others; and in the end, after he had much helped others, Samuel Fuller who was their surgeon and physician and had been a great help and comfort unto them. As in his faculty, so otherwise being a deacon of the church, a man godly and forward to do good, being much missed after his death. And he and the rest of their brethren much lamented by them and caused much sadness and mourning amongst them, which caused them to humble themselves and seek the Lord; and towards winter it pleased the Lord the sickness ceased."

!Fuller Genealogy vol 2, p 15

First Minister of the Church at Plymouth, Mass.

[William Hyslop Fuller, Genealogy of Some Descendants of Dr. Samuel Fuller,  (Palmer, Massachusetts C. B. Fiske & Co. 1910), pgs. 15-20.]

Samuel2 Fuller was one of the 26 original proprietors of Middleborough. The Indians burned his home there in 1676 and he returned to Plymouth until the war with them was over. He had been educated for the ministry and preached several years at Middleborough, but was not ordained until 1694. His biographers describe him as a sober, grave, industrious, enlightened, and selfdenying man.

SETTLEMENT OF REV. SAMUEL FULLER'S ESTATE.

Rev. Samuel Fuller, son of Dr. Samuel Fuller of the Mayflower, died intestate at Middleborough 17 August, 1695, and his widow Elizabeth was appointed administratrix 25 September, 1695. The record of this appointment and of the inventory taken 5 September 1695, may be found in the Plymouth County Probate Records, volume I, page 223. On page 224 is recorded the appointment of a guardian for the minor son Isaac, and on pages 246 and 247 is the agreement between the heirs.
The appointment and the administration bond are omitted here as not being of great genealogical interest.

Mr. Linus E. Fuller, of 12th Group, 8th Generation, states that his grandfather gave information to Rufus7, his nephew, April 1, 1834, to the effect that Micah Fuller lived in Worcester, Mass., but his home was burned by Indians and he removed to Old Hadley, Mass., but was again burned out by Indians and removed to Schenectady, N. Y.; stated that Micah was wealthy; owned mills; dropped dead in a mill. Rufus7 made a memorandum of this information which was found after his death, and a copy given to Mr. Linus E. Fuller. I have found nothing in histories of the above places relating to Micah Fuller.
