Francis Joseph FULFORD married Ida HARGETT of Silverdale community on the Jones/Onslow Co. around 1875. He was a druggist in New Bern. They had two children: a son, Joseph Clarence, and a daughter, Julia May(e). He died at age 30 (1883), and is buried in Cedar Grove Cemetery in New Bern (grave site unknown). What happened to Ida Hargett Fulford and her two children? Does anyone know where they are buried--if there were grandchildren or present-day descendants?

a#AVERITTAVERITTa#HARRELLHARRELLa#HOUSEHOUSEa#HOWSEHOWSE posted by Barbara Howse Chronister on Friday, November 12, 1999

Looking for where my HOWSE family originated. We had always heard Germany. However, all of the other HOWSE families on-line seem to be from England. I wouldn't mind being a descendant from England on this side of my family also, however, no one seems to know anything about a Buckner HOWSE or HOUSE who lived in Onslow, North Carolina. We have info of when he was living there and his children and all of his marriages, but we have nothing of who his parents were or where his parents came from. Buckner was born in Onslow, North Carolina in 1767. He died in 1851. His first marriage was to Rebecca Harrell and his second marriage was to Rosamond Averitt. Thanks, Barbara
