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.

Notes for Henry Phelps: Henry Phelps is believed to have been born about 1799 in Stokes County, North Carolina. The 1850 Blounty County Census shows him as 51 years of age. His father was Michael Fulp (Phelps), son of George Fulp who migrated to America from Europe about 1750. Among the spellings of the name are Fulp, Fulps, Felp, Felps, and Phelps. Phelps is the contemporary spelling.

Henry Phelps was part of the westward migration of some of the family in the early 1800s. His brother Valentine, with wife and children, had moved to Washington County, Virginia by 1810. By 1820 his brother Soloman had left North Carolina. Members of his Uncle Peter's family are reported to have migrated west during the period to Indiana and Illinois.

The record of a court hearing in Illinois involving inheritance of land provides the most definitive evidence that Henry Phelps was the son of second-generation Michael Fulp. Henry was identified in the document as one of five Felps siblings who were the sole living heirs of their brother George's estate. The six siblings are clearly identified as sons and daughters of the senior Michael Fulp (see The Phelps-Fulp Connection by Thomas A Phelps dated 11/10/10).

By 1830 Henry Phelps and brothers Valentine and Soloman had settled in Claiborne County, Tennessee. Henry had married Rhoda Lebow. They had two children and are listed on the U. S. Census of that year as living with or next door to Rhoda's father Daniel Lebow.

By 1840 Henry Phelps with his wife and six children had moved to Blount County, Tennessee. The name on the U.S. Census for 1840 was misspelled as "Philips". Ten years later on the 1850 Census, he is listed as "Phelps". Henry and Rhoda had eleven children and lived in the Middlesettlements Community of Blount County.

Henry Phelps died sometime before 1860. Family records show that during a smallpox epidemic in the community, Henry dug graves for the victims. It is believed that as one of the few able bodied men in the community, he kept an empty grave dug in preparation for the next death. When he became ill and died of the disease, he was buried in a grave that he had dug himself.

Rhoda Phelps died in 1880. It is thought that Rhoda and Henry Phelps are buried in the cemetery at Middlesettlements Methodist Church in Blount County, Tennessee where there are several older unmarked graves. Generation 3 (con't) Henry Phelps and Rhoda Lebow had the following children: i. MARY JANE4 PHELPS was born in 1829 in TN.

Notes for Daniel Richard Phelps: Daniel Richard Felps (Phelps) was born on April 20, 1839 in Blount County, Tennessee. He was one of eleven children born to Henry Felps and Rhoda Lebow Felps who were married in Claiborne County, Tennessee in 1828. Daniel Richard's ancestors were German Protestants who migrated to America in the mid-18th century, settling first in Pennsylvania and then North Carolina before coming to Tennessee. The family name is spelled differently in different periods and locations - Fulp, Felps, Phelps, and other. Hereafter, "Phelps", the contemporary spelling of the name in Blount County, Tennessee will be used for the purpose of this document.

Daniel Richard Phelps' father Henry, whose middle name may have been Valentine, died in the late 1850s leaving mother Rhoda and seven of her children still at home. As the oldest unmarried son, Daniel Richard, at age 21 or thereabouts, assumed major responsibility for the household.

When the Civil War came to East Tennessee in the early 1860s, Daniel Richard Phelps joined the Union army. As a soldier in the ranks of the Sixth Tennessee Volunteer Infantry, he saw combat at Lookout Mountain, Resaca, Kennesaw, Atlanta, Nashville, and other lesser engagements. His unit traveled over 10,000 miles by foot, rail, and steamship. He told his oldest son that he did not sleep in a bed for over two years.

When the War ended in 1865, Daniel Richard Phelps returned home and became "man of the house". Older brother William Thompson had been killed in the war. Younger brother Henry had died. The community was destitute. Sisters Martha and Eliza and younger brother Hiram continued to live on the family farm, as did mother Rhoda until her death in 1880. Generation 4 (con't)

On November 23, 1882, Daniel Richard Phelps married Sarah Jane Lebow. They had nine children, six of whom survived to adulthood, married, and raised families. Those who died in childhood were Mary Beaula, Susie Cleo, and Chlora Eliza.

Daniel Richard continued to work the family farm in his later years until he was disabled from war-related wounds and illness. He died on February 12, 1910 and is buried at Middlesettlements Methodist Church in Blount County, Tennessee. His beloved wife Sarah Jane died in 1927 and was buried in another part of the cemetery due to rain and flooding at the time of her funeral. Daniel Richard's grave is marked by a military headstone which reads "Felps", the name under which he served his country. Sarah Jane's headstone reads "Phelps", the name used by all of her children and many descendants.

Notes for William Esco Phelps: William Esco Phelps was born June 22, 1891 in the Middlesettlements Community of Blount County, Tennessee. He was the oldest son of Daniel Richard Phelps and Sarah Jane Lebow Phelps. His siblings who survived to adulthood were Rhoda Ethel, Richard Earl, Vola Beatrice, Vivian Blane, and Henry Verlan. Three sisters died in infancy prior to his birth. He was known by his middle name, Esco.

During Esco Phelps' youth, the family owned and farmed 166 acres in the Middlesettments Community near what is now called Lovingood Spring. It included part of Grey Ridge and Long Hollow. The farm was purchased jointly in 1867 for $1450 by Esco's father, Daniel Richard, his grandmother Rhoda, and younger brothers, George and Hiram.

Not quiet 20 years old, William Esco Phelps married Rosa Honor Davis on April 30, 1911. "Rose" lived on an adjacent farm and was the daughter of John Brownlow Davis and Mihaska Bright Davis. She described their wedding in a note written on their 66th wedding anniversary, "we was setting in a buggy in the middle of the road..on the north side of and at the foot of gray ridge, god had that side of the ridge covered with birds and wild flowers". Her full note is in the media section.

Soon after their marriage the young couple built and furnished a two-story house on top of Grey Ridge. Within months of its completion, the house caught fire and burned to the ground. Rose and Esco were not at home when the fire started. All their possessions were lost except a rocking chair that was on the front porch.

Rose and Esco Phelps became parents of a son on February 28, 1912. They named him John Richard after his grandfathers. Sadly, he died of whooping cough within two months. The young couple's second child was born in the spring of 1913 and was named Geneva.

William Esco's father had not written a will before he died in 1910. By law, the farm on which Esco, his widowed mother, and several of the children lived, had to be sold at auction to satisfy the legitimate claims of all the heirs. The sale took place at the Blount County Court House on December 13, 1913. The highest bid was $3502. At the end of the day, W. B. Lovingood was the new owner of what had been the Phelps family farm.

Daughter Edna Earle was born in late 1914. With young daughters Geneva and Edna, Esco and Rose moved to Texas about 1916 to work on the ranch of W. E. Love. The ranch was seven miles north of the small town of Hansford in the flat, windswept Texas panhandle. With World War I in progress, William Esco Phelps signed his draft registration card on June 5, 1916. In the spring of 1917, another son was born and named Daniel Edward.

By 1918 Esco and Rose Phelps had moved from Texas back to Tennessee. To support his young family, Esco went alone to Wilmington, North Carolina where work was available in the wartime shipyards. The year 1918 is remembered for the armistice in Europe, but also as the year of The Great Influenza Epidemic. Living in a boarding house near the shipyard, William Esco caught the deadly flu. His story of his several feverish days between life and death was grimly riveting. Many of his fellow boarders did not survive.

Daughter Anna Reva Phelps was born in the autumn of 1919. During the 1920s the Phelps family continued to grow. William Esco provided for his wife and children by working part-time as a carpenter and farming at several locations in Blount County. New son William Darrell arrived in 1921, daughter Juanita May in 1924, and their last child, Jerrod Gilbert in 1926.

In the mid-1930s, Esco and Rose Phelps settled on a 40-acre farm on Grey Ridge that had come into the family by inheritance. They lived in a temporary house as Esco went to work on a proper home to replace the one that had burned higher on the same ridge 20 years earlier. A building site was selected at the center of a broad step in the ridge. When time could be spared from his farm duties and with help of some of his sons, lumber was cut, a cistern was dug, red oak shingles rived and a foundation laid. The house took years to complete but was a work of art when finished. It was two-story with outer walls of cured pine logs placed vertically. The shingled upper story included two dormers on the front for added light and space. A gabled roof covered the front Generation 5 (con't) included two dormers on the front for added light and space. A gabled roof covered the front porch.

William Esco Phelps was a farmer at heart and better farmland was never far from his mind. He loved "to see things grow", he said. Experience had taught him that it was hard to get ahead on a ridge-side farm. River bottoms and level land grew the best crops and when Esco learned in 1948 of a 200 acre farm that had both, he made arrangements to buy it, though it was 70 miles away in Bradley County.

Esco and Rose were near 60 years of age when they tackled their new farm in Bradley County. Daughter Juanita and her husband Bill Jackson partnered in the venture. The farm had an acceptable barn, but needed a second one. The house that was on the place when they bought it was barely livable. The Jackson's also needed a house, so the foursome went to work and built two new houses and a barn.

In the mid-1950s with age beginning to take its toll, Esco Phelps retired from farming. He and Rose moved back to Blount County and lived their later years near family. Son William Darrell and his wife Marie lived next door and, along with other family, helped them to live independently until their late 80s. William Esco died on March 2, 1983. He is buried in Sherwood Memorial Gardens, Maryville, Blount County, Tennessee. Rose survived him by three years.

William Esco Phelps is remembered as a kind and gentle man. His energy and strength seemed boundless, but his manner was quiet, humble, and considerate. He spoke softly but directly. He was an ardent listener and his responses were always careful and well considered. His honesty was beyond question. His word was his bond. As one admiring grandson put it, "Whatever he told you, you could take it to the bank".

No one was a better story teller than Esco Phelps the grandfather. His grandchildren listened to stories of the family with rapt attention. Much of what we know about the Phelps family was passed to younger generations by his stories. Most accounts were of major life events and of a serious nature, but some were humorous and no one laughed harder at the end than the teller.

He loved to hunt and fish and was good at both. He was also a good cook and often got in the kitchen to fix for the table whatever he had brought home from field or stream. One grandchild remembers baked quail on a bed of dressing, another freshly caught catfish fried in special cornmeal batter. A daughter remembers that he always whistled while he worked in the kitchen and that he made wonderful cornbread from freshly picked, almost-hardened corn, grated by hand on a grater that he had made himself. His love for sweets was well known, the more sugar the better.

William Esco Phelps lived close to the land all of his life and considered the long hours of a farmer a labor of love. When asked in later years to reflect on a life that had its share of difficulty, he responded quickly with a convincing gleam in his eye and no hint of regret, "Farming is the best life there is."
