Mayflower Treasure Hunt - Experience Fuller - Granddaughter of Samuel Fuller [closed]

Question

Mayflower Treasure Hunt - Help improve Mayflower Project profiles, by cleaning up profiles and finding the primary sources or reliable secondary sources for this Mayflower descendant.

Mayflower passenger Mr. Samuel Fuller, had only one son, also Samuel, who had children of his own. This weeks hunt is for primary sources and reliable secondary sources to support the facts in the data section on the profile of Experience Fuller.

• Her birth seems to be an estimate. What is that estimate based on?
• She married. Is there a good source for who, when and where?
• There's a marriage citation for Gen Advertiser 1:3. Anyone know anything about this source? Can you locate it?
• There are some Land Records for the family. Plymouth Co. LR 19:46; 37:159. Can you find them? Try "googling" Plymouth County Deeds Family Search
• Can you look up the probate records for her husband James Wood? For help see this G2G post.
• Any good sources for her death?

You can add information here, and get G2G points and/or directly on the profile. Both earn contributions.

Thank you.

Answer 1

A marriage of an Experience Fuller and James Wood is recorded in the Bridgewater MA published vital records for 12 April 1693. Source for that listing is P.C.R. (Plymouth County records). [Vital records of Bridgewater, Massachusetts, to the year 1850. 1916. Boston, Mass: Pub. by the New England historic genealogical Society, at the charge of the Eddy town-record fund.]

Torrey gives several secondary sources for this same marriage, with an alternate date of 2 April: NYGBR 33:171; Reg. 101:338; TAG 24:188; Bradford (1900) 14; Bailey: Early MA Mar. 2:70; MD 5:69, 18:227, 26:38; Fuller 2:15; Gen. Adv. 1:3; Pilgrim Notes 5:71.

Marriage records from Plymouth Court records were published in the Pilgrim Notes & Queries by George Earnest Bowman, editor (published by Society of Mayflower Descendants, Boston, Massachusetts).  On page 122 of the December 1915 issue (vol. III, no. 8), the marriage of James Wood and Experience ffuller is recorded in Middleborough on 12 April 1693 on page 11 of the original records.

None of the published marriage records give further family information for either James or Experience.
