Biography

U.S. Southern Colonies Project logo
Catharine (Salling) Fuller was a Virginia colonist.
This profile is part of the Saling Name Study.

Anna Catharina "Catharine" Salling was born 29 August 1729 in Struth, Alsace Lorraine and baptized at the Lutheran church in Waldhambach.[1][2] She was the first born child of Johann Peter Saling and Anna Maria Vollmer.

Catharine came to the American colonies with her parents and sisters, immigrating to Philadelphia from Rotterdam on September 18 1733, aboard the ship, Pennsylvania Merchant.[1]

Her family first settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania and later migrated to Augusta County, Virginia Colony. It was here that Catharine met and married her husband, Henry Fuller. The couple wed 15 April 1751.[3]

By 1761, Catharine and her husband moved their family to Orange County, North Carolina. They settled on Storey's Creek (now in Caswell County).

Catharine was the mother of at least 12 children.

Henry was the father of 14 proven children. Some researchers believe Henry's eldest two daughters, Sarah (Fuller) Majors and Keziah (Fuller) Reynolds were born before his marriage to Catharine.

The following 12 children were definitely born by Catharine:

  1. John Salling
  2. Peter
  3. Elizabeth (Fuller) Rankin
  4. Mary (Fuller) Williams
  5. Henry
  6. George
  7. Abraham
  8. Stephen
  9. Ann
  10. Isaac
  11. Isaiah
  12. Jacob

Catharine's death date is unknown. She was still alive in 1796, but missing in the 1800 and subsequent US Census records.
