Descendants of George Fulp Generation 1 1. GEORGE1 FULP was born in 1718 in Heidelberg, Germany. He died on 26 Oct 1786 in Belews Creek, Surry, NC. He married MARY H PHILLIPS in 1752. She was born in 1722 in Berks, PA. She died in 1800 in Stokes County, NC. Notes for George Fulp: On September, Wednesday, the 25th, 1751, the ship Phoenix, John Suprrier, Captain, arrived in Philadelphia, Pa., from Rotterdam, the Neitherlands, via Portsmouth, England with 412 passengers. One of the passengers was Georg Volpp (pronounced Gay-org Folp). It is thought that Georg Volpp became our George Fulp. It was common to change German and other European names to names that were easier to spell and pronounce in English. Also, names were changed to "fit in" and possibly avoid secular conflicts that were common at this time. A director at the Moravian Archive in Winston Salem, North Carolina, advises that the German name Volpp is easily translated to Fulp. Also, another passenger on the same ship was Jacob Koehler. There are some indications that this person eventually settled in the Stokes County, North Carolina area near George Fulp. At George Fulps' request, a John Jacob Koehler (a Moravian Bishop) held his funeral services. After landing in Pennsylvania, George Fulp settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. In 1752, he married Mary H. Phillips who was born in 1714 in Exeter, Berks County, Pennsylvania. They had five children. In the early 1760s, George moved his family to Stokes County, North Carolina about 15 miles north of what is now Winston-Salem in Forsyth County. Mary Fulp, wife and mother, died there about 1764. (Forsyth Co. was established from Stokes Co. in 1849, Stokes Co, from Surry Co. in 1789, and Surry County from Rowan Co. in 1771. Rowan Co. was established in 1753.) George Fulp died on October 26, 1786. His estate was probated in November 1786 in Surry County, North Carolina. He is buried in Belews Creek Cemetery in what is now Forsyth County. A report of George Fulp's death and funeral was recorded in the Salem Diary on October 26, 1786. It reads as follows: "Br. Koehler went to Belews Creek, sixteen miles from Salem, to hold the funeral of a friend of the Brethen. George Fulp by name. This man was born in 1718 and led a Christian life. The Brethren proclaimed the Gospel several times in his house. Before his end, he arranged that a Brother from Salem should conduct the funeral." By way of explanation, Salem, North Carolina was the headquarters of the Moravian Church on the southern American frontier. They referred to themselves as "the Brethen". The Moravians are an evangelical Christian denomination with roots going back to pre-Reformation days in central Europe. Salem, now a part of modern-day Winston-Salem, continues to be the southern headquarters of the church. Many descendants of George and Mary Fulp still live near Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Numerous Fulps live in Forsyth and Stokes Counties in the vicinity of what is now White Road, commonly referred to as Walkertown-Belews Creek Road. Many Fulps participated in the westward migrations that took place throughout the 1800s. A group led by Valentine Fulp, son of second-generation Michael, went to Washington County, Virginia and later to Claiborne County, Tennessee, settling near the town of Tazewell. Included in the migration, but probably at a later date, were Valentine's brothers Solomon and Henry, and children of second generation Peter. Some names changed to Felps and then on to Phelps. This was probably the result of how the names sounded to different people that would read and write. Henry Fulp (Felps/Phelps) was born about 1799. He married Rhoda Lebow of Claiborne County in 1828. Sometime during the 1830's he and Rhoda moved to Blount County, Tennessee. He is shown with his wife and six children on the 1840 U. S. Census as Henry "Philips" and in the 1850 census as Henry "Phelps". Most of the Blount County Phelps are descended from Henry and Rhoda. From Tennessee, some of the family moved to Alabama, Kentucky and Missouri. Others, notably sons of George Fulp (son of second-generation Peter), went to Indiana and Illinois. Today the Generation 1 (con't) sons of George Fulp (son of second-generation Peter), went to Indiana and Illinois. Today the family is spread through much of the United States using several spellings of the name - Fulp, Fulps, Felps, Fultz, Phelps and other variations. An 1855 lawsuit in St Clair County, Illinois confirms the ancestrial lineage of Henry Fulp/Felps/Phelps. The court document clearly shows that Henry was a brother to the five known living children of second generation, Michael Fulp: George, Michael Jr, Peter, Catherine and Elizabeth. George Fulp and Mary H Phillips had the following children: 2. i. MICHAEL2 FULP was born on 17 Apr 1755 in Lancaster, PA. He died on 07 May 1836 in Stokes, NC.

He was allowed pension on his application executed March 15, 1833, at which time he was living in Stokes County, which was formerly a part of Surry County, North Carolina. His military papers state that he was the brother of soldier, Peter Fulp. Michael Fulp appeared on the census in 1790 in Stokes County, North Carolina with four males under 16; five females and no slaves. He appeared on the census in 1800, 1810 and 1820, in Stokes County, North Carolina. He was married to Phebe SCOTT on 20 Aug 1777 in Surry County, North Carolina.

One element scrutinizes the efforts of Commandant Archibald Henderson to transform the Corps into a more nimble and professional organization. Henderson's initiatives are placed within the framework of the several fundamental changes that the U.S. Navy was undergoing as it worked to experiment with, acquire, and incorporate new naval technologies into its own operational concept.

Hagen A Thesis in the Field of History for a Degree of Master of Liberal Arts in Extension Studies Harvard University November 2017 Copyright 2017 Paul B. Hagen Abstract Founded in 1851, Seattle was little more than a rough-and-tumble frontier town at the onset of the Civil War. However, by 1880 the young community had developed into a small, but prosperous city. Not only did the population grow immensely during this time, but the character of the town also changed. By 1880 Seattle was no longer just another western logging town, but rather a civilized metropolitan center. Although the rapid development of Seattle is widely accepted, the connection between it and the Civil War has not been reported. Historical data suggest that the Civil War did influence the development of Seattle. The Civil War caused Seattle’s population to grow through recruitment of unemployed war widows and orphans. These recruits brought New England culture to Seattle, which served as a civilizing force. The Civil War also led to policies that helped Seattle develop in other ways.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Vanderbilt Electronic Thesis and Dissertation Archive White Slaves in Barbary: The Early American Republic, Orientalism and the Barbary Pirates By Angela Sutton Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Vanderbilt University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS in History May, 2009 Nashville, Tennessee Approved: Professor Jane Landers Professor Katherine Crawford “In this work, I have most attempted a full description of the many hellish torments and punishments those piratical sea-rovers invent and inflict on the unfortunate Christians who may by chance unhappily fall into their hands…”38 wrote John Foss, an American sailor captured by pirates off the coast of North Africa and sold into slavery in 1793. Many other captives were not as reserved, describing the pirate’s bloody attacks with colorful, titillating language that provoked outrage in early America. Although often exaggerated or forged, the Orientalist stereotypes perpetuated about the Barbary Pirates by captives like John Foss would resonate in the minds of early Americans and shape American foreign policy. These first encounters with North Africa through the pirates set a precedent for how the young nation would engage with belligerent powers in the future. While European superpowers paid tribute and appeased the Barbary nations in order to incapacitate their economic rivals on the seas, the American Congress commissioned a naval fleet and prepared for war. The language used in the accounts of the Barbary captives, in the colonial American newspapers, and by the founding fathers demonstrates that the legend of the Barbary pirates shaped American views of “the Orient,” which led to acceptance of aggressive foreign policy in the Mediterranean.
