Notes:

SOI: Danbury Court Records, Glenn McGee and Linda Vernon
Nancy died due to overdose of Lodman administrated by school marm while at Sis Dillons (Per Odie Caruthers to VGF)
1900 Census gives birth as May 18, 1826; however, tombstone reads "age 74 yrs" with death date of 24 Feb 1904 -- this would place birth date as Abt 1830

Witness: Solomon Fulp
Death notice from the 2-17-1876 "Peoples Press" (Salem, NC) 1851-1892 gives the following account of Peter's death. "Fulp, Peter, of Forsyth Co, the father of Joseph Fulp, burned to death, Feb. 11, 1876. Mr Fulp was very feable, upwards of 80 yrs of age, and in the habit of resting on a pallet near the fire, from choice. When the house he was in was discovered to be on fire, his son's family hastened to the rescue but on opening the door found the inside all ablaze; it was impossible to enter and Peter Fulp perished in the flames. It is supposed the fire communicated to the bed and the old man could not make his escape."
Note: Glenn McGee in discussion with Vestal Fulp said he had read that Peter burned to death when sparks from a train set his roof on fire. I must go with the death notice in Peoples Press.
