[p. 967] whose valuable farm of seventy-five acres is situated in North Beaver Township, Lawrence County, was born on this farm July 22, 1839, son of James and Ann (Clark) Fullerton. James Fullerton, father of Milton, was born on a farm one mile southwest of the present one, and was a son of James Fullerton, a pioneer settler of this section. The second James Fullerton was reared in North Beaver Township, and followed farming all his life. Both he and his wife died on the farm of their son Milton, to which they had come when they married. The mother was a daughter of John Clark, who came to this locality from the eastern part of the State. Of the family of nine children born to James Fullerton and wife, three survive, namely: Milton, subject of this sketch; Margaret Jane, who married Samuel Moorhead, of New Castle, and Nancy Quigley, who married Charles L. Harrah, of New Castle.
Milton Fullerton was reared on the farm he now owns and since his school days ended has been engaged in its cultivation and improvement. He carries on general agriculture. In 1866 the comfortable residence was built and in 1901 he put up the large and substantial barn. He owns improved machinery and excellent stock.
