Susan,

My Great-Great-Great Grandfather Arthur Fulghum's brother Theophilus (living
in Williamson) sued Arthur's sons Pierce and Raiford over the estate of his
sister Apsilla. In this suit, a copy of which was found in the Nacogdoches
County, Texas, court records recently, there was a listing of the Fulghum
and collateral family lines along with their locations. William McKinnie
Wilson Fulghum (my Great-Great-Grandfather) was listed in Oktibbeha County,
Mississippi, at that time (early 1850s). Therefore, I would surmise your
Fulghums are relatives. Send me a post with the names of your Fulghum's in
Oktibbeha and Webster Counties at that time. I will check my database and
that of the FFFNA to determine relationship. NOTE: My families' last name
is Fulghum and there was another family line spelled Fulgham in Mississippi.
Both of these lines came to the Republic of Texas in 1839 and 1840.
Recently, through FamilyTreeDNA, I was able to conclusively prove the two
blood lines are descended from Captain Anthony Fulgham of the Isle of Wight
County, Virginia (circa 1640), our most recent documented common ancestor.
My Fulghum line from Captain Anthony Fulgham's son Michael and the Fulgham
line through Anthony's son John. Check the spelling of the last name and
then give me the full names so I can check their lineages. This might help
you in tracing your Fulghum/Fulgham ancestors.

Dan
