L November 2004 Fulgham-Fulghum Family Facts ' Page 4 The Old Richland Church At the close of the Fulgham/Fulghum Family2004 Reunion, 3 descendants of Micajah Fulgham, Les & Betty Fulgham from Houston Texas, Ray & Shirley Fulghamfrom Wilseyville,CA and Byron & Sue Libby from Chico, Ca, traveled tojust outside of Macon, Georgia to see the church Miwjahstarted in l8l1. Though the first church was a log cabin built a short distance from where we were, we are sure Micajah helped build the first building and preached there until 1820. The church we visited was built in the late 1940to 1850's. It is a beautiful Greek revival building. We were graciously greeted by Mrs. Peggy Fauk Mrs. Bootsie Faulk and his Honor Judge Duross Fitzpatrick, the President of the Richland Restoration League. Judge Fitzpatrick had taken time from hisjob as a Federal District Court Judge to meet with us and present me with a book on Twiggs County and Georgia History. Walking in to the church and seeing that it was basically the same as it had been when built was very exciting. The church is divided down the middle so that the men sat on the left and the women on the right (they even entered through different doors). The doors on the outer front of the entrance is where the slaves entered and went up very small and steep stairs to a balcony. Mrs. Peggy Faulk had brought with her many old church records for us to examine and books that talked about the church. Also. she hadthe original Silver Communion set from the 1840's which was used in the services. We walked out to the church cemetery and realized that some of the head stones that we could read were of people who could have listened to Micajah preach. In 1948 the Richland Restoration Leaguewas organized to restore and preserve this beautiful building and itshistory. Currently they are carefully removingthe old siding. fixing any structural problems, planing_the lumber and puttng What they can back on the building. Any additional wood needed will be of old wood from other sources. One side will be having the foundation replaced, and the roof has been replaced since we were there. They have a news letter and if anyone is interested you may write to Darrell Faulk 1692 Longstreet Road, Cochran, Georgia 31014. I was only in the church for a few minuteswhen my emotions got the best of me I sat in one of the pews and cried. To see our family history first hand and realize how we are related in our common heritage was something I hope I will never forget. The annual Fulgham/Fulghum Family Reunions have become part of us and we enjoy each year the chance to travel our country and see family. Forthe family who is unable to attend I do understand. but hope you will become more involved in meetingyour family. In the next few years you will be hearing more and more about the 2007 reunion and I can not stress enough to everyone to make an effort to be there and meet our family. We have a very rich and wonderful family history, growing up with the last name of Fulgham, not knowing other Fulghams, and now to be involved with so many Fulghams is truly a blessing. l was also given a 7 page history of the Richland Church. if anyone is interested in a copy, please letmeknowand l willsendacopytoyou.
