May I copy the comments of Christopher Gray as a similar Fulford.

Hope you enjoy the Group.

And Grace Shapton was the wife of John Fulford who is/was my 3rd great great Uncle.  What a small world.

Hi Andrew, I was born a Fulford and live in Cairns, North Queensland, Australia. I just want to say that my great-g-g-grandmother was Grace Shapton and married to John Fulford. (Born 1783) She was born in Buckland Brewer so I guess, belongs to your family too. Their son James (Wife Elizabeth Ley Tancock) had a son John who came to Australia around 1840 and later married his first cousin Margaret Hindmarsh. Her mother was Elizabeth Fulford. I've only recently become interested in family history so welcome any information.

Cheerio,  Eileen White

Hi John - I also have some Heal's (spelled Heale) in my family (a Mary Heale) - I'll figure out a way of sharing my family tree with this group somehow.....

Good day Andrew,

 

Welcome to the group.

 

Looks like your family are long residents of BB. My connection is primarily with the Cole family (Charity Heal & William Cole and his ancestors) and the Fulford family (Henry Cole & Elizabeth Fulford as well as John Fulford and Mary Cole).

 

Cheers, John
