[Registration date 4 May 1635][2] John's identity is confirmed by his father's will which refers to "my two sons William Fuller and John Fuller which now are in New England..."[3]

I've added a 2002 source on the origins of John and William Fuller which updates the Great Migration sketches. The article (TAG 77:267-70) includes their siblings and grandfather/aunts and uncles if someone was interested in entering profiles for their family in England.

Fuller-9588 and Fuller-88 do not represent the same person because: Hi,

It is possible that the one death record has been taken for both and only applies to one of them... rather than being the same person or two people with same name dying on the same day in the same place. I am rejecting the merge because my John Fuller had a son James Fuller who married twice (Elizabeth Nowett and then Sarah Elphicke). So while there is no official sources in our family history for John these other records are well sourced with marriage records/ birth records etc etc.

Fuller-9588 and Fuller-88 appear to represent the same person because: While the birth dates are different, I'm struck by the exact same death date and place. Fuller-88 is well sourced; Fuller-9588 has no sources nor does it have any relationships. Shall we merge it away int Fuller-88?

This John of Ipswich is not the same person as John Fuller of Newton. There were 3 Johns prior to 1650.. and to get them straight please see: http://johnfullerofnewton.com/ancestral/3-johns/

This John of Ipswich was baptized 19 May 1617 but in Chelmsford, See detail here: http://johnfullerofnewton.com/ancestral/3-johns/john-of-ipswich/
