    • DEATH: Sometime the first winter at Plymouth, likely between January a nd March 1621.

      Edward Fuller has been generally identified as the son of Robert and Sa ra (Dunkhorn) Fuller, baptized on 4 September 1575 at Redenhall, Norfol k. Thomas Morton, writing in 1637, says that Samuel Fuller (brother of E dward Fuller) was the son of a butcher. The name Matthew also occurs in t his Redenhall Fuller family.

      The name of Edward Fuller's wife has not been discovered. In James Sava ge's Genealogical Dictionary of the First Settlers of New England (1860 -1862), Edward Fuller's wife was given as "Ann". However, there are no A merican or English records which give her name. I suspect James Savage m ay have made a simple typographical error: Mayflower passenger Edward T illey had a wife Ann; or perhaps he was thinking of their sister Ann Fu ller. Nonetheless, numerous sources published after 1860 have utilized S avage's Genealogical Dictionary, and so the identification of Ann can b e found in numerous other books and online resources.

      Very little is known about Edward Fuller. What is known is that he, his w ife, and his son Samuel came on the Mayflower in 1620 to Plymouth. An o lder brother, Matthew, had stayed behind, and came to America later.
