Footnotes

After being contacted by another Fultz Family member of George and Liza Jane Fults Tree they were married in 1850. I was told George’s middle name is Francis. Members of his family were named Francis after George Francis. I went back and found there were two George Fults both married to Janes in Grundy County, TN One being George Francis married to Eliza Jane Campbell in 1850. The other George W. Fults married to Jane Brown (will try to find the date). I believe some of the Ancestry Trees have confused the two families in the past using Grundy Co. census. This why I have removed some of the children from George and Liza Jane’s tree. The children removed were listed with George W. and Jane on Grundy Co. Census. I will be removing any children before 1850 after I confirm they are not George Francis children in the next few days.
