| Notes |
- BIRTH: Proof that Matthew is a son of Edward comes from circumstantial evidence that he is a brother of Samuel Fuller, a proved son of Edward. On 3 Jun 1662 Matthew Fuller was included on a list of "the first born children" of Plymouth Colony who were to receive a grant of land. Those on the list were the sons of "Mayflower" passengers and others who arrived in the colony before 1627. Matthew arrived well after this date, but Edward Fuller was a "Mayflower" passenger. Furthermore, on 29 Jun 1673, Matthew Fuller and Samuel Fuller made complaint against Steven Skiff, et al. An agreement was reached, and John Fuller (son of Matthew) stated that he "doth aquiessey in this agreement of his unkells and Steven Skiffes..." (Plymouth Colony Deeds, 2:1:21 [FHL #567789]). The implication is that Matthew's son John is a nephew of Samuel Fuller; hence Matthew and Samuel are brothers. For additional information, see Bruce Campbell MacGunnigle, "Was Matthew Fuller of Plymouth Colony a Son of Pilgrim Edward Fuller?," TAG, 61(1986):194-99 (FHL #973 D25aga). Matthew Fuller is not mentioned in colony records until 1640 (Nathaniel B. Shurtleff and David Pulsifer, eds, RECORDS OF THE COLONY OF NEW PLYMOUTH, 12 vols. [Boston, 1855-61], 6:18-19 [FHL #974.4 N2n]). It is presumed that he remained in England, coming over to join his family at a later date. Date and place of birth are approximations.
MAR: No mar rec found. A wife Frances is identified in Matthew's will, below.
DEATH: No death rec found. See the will of Matthew Fuller of Barnstable, 25 Jul 1678, proved 30 Oct 1678, inv 22 Aug 1678, Plymouth Colony Probate, 3:2:127-30 (FHL #567794).
OCC: Physician, militia captain, Surgeon General of Plymouth Colony troops.
