Mayflower - Pilgrim


Samuel Fuller was christened 8 Apr 1608 in Norfolk, England to Edward Fu l ler and his wife. He married Jane Lathrop, who was christened 29 Sep 16 1 4 in Egerton, Kent, England (her father's parish church) to Reverend Jo h n Lathrop and Hannah Howse. The two were married 8 April 1635 in Scitua te , Massachusetts. Samuel’s father, Edward, was baptized at Redenall, No rfo lk on September 4, 1575. He married and had two sons born in that are a, b ut there is no further information.

Edward Fuller’s name appears in a document in the Leiden records, but th e re is no further information. Since Samuel traveled to New England wit h h is parents, it is probable that he lived with them in Leiden .

Samuel Fuller came on the Mayflower at the age of 8, with his father Edw a rd Fuller. (He should not be confused with doctor Samuel Fuller, his un cl e, who also came on the Mayflower). Samuel’s parents both died the fir s t winter at Plymouth. Samuel was apparently raised by his uncle, and be ca me a freeman of Plymouth in 1634. He married in Scituate the next year . H e and his wife Jane would raise their family initially at Scituate, b efor e moving sometime shortly before 1641 to Barnstable. He would live o ut th e next forty years of his life in Barnstable. His probate records o f 1683 -84 indicate that his wife predeceased him. He also bequeathed a n India n named Joel to his son John.

All the sources that say born in Egerton, Kent below are errors. His WI F E was from Egerton, Kent. None of these Fullers lived there. Yes, Samu e l came on the Mayflower with his parents but his mother's name is n o t known. See http://tinyurl.com/MAYFLOWER-EdFuller and http://mayflower hi story.com/fuller-edward/.
