About Lt. Samuel Fuller
Update 4 January 2024:
- Y‐DNA testing has conclusively proven that Dr. Matthew Fuller, of Barnstable was not a son of Edward Fuller, "Mayflower" Passenger.
- Extensive Y‐DNA testing was completed as part of the Fuller Big Y DNA Project. Specifics of the DNA testing were reported in the Summer 2022 Issue of The Mayflower Descendant, published by the New England Historical and Genealogical Society. The conclusion of this testing was:
- The NGSY‐DNA results demonstrate that Matthew Fuller cannot be Edward’s son or descendant and that the immigrant Robert Fuller is more closely related to Matthew than Matthew is to Edward.
- In sum, all three men are kinsmen, but no father‐son relationship exists among them. The genealogical timeline makes such kinship impossible.
Lieut Samuel Fuller (son of Matthew Fuller & his wife Frances) was born approximately February 11 1635 in Plymouth, Massachusetts; he was killed approximately March 25, 1676, in Rehoboth, Bristol County, Massachusetts, USA.
In 1670 he was a member of the Colony Committee appointed to view the injury done to the Indians, by the cattle of the English, and assess damages. He was also a town officer. He resided at Barnstable. He was a lieutenant in King Phillip's war, and was killed at Rehoboth, Mass, March 25, 1676 during a Native Amercian attack.
He must not be confused with Captain Samuel Fuller, killed at Rehoboth, Aug. 15, 1676, who was son of Robert Fuller, of Salem.
Samuel died testate having prepared his will before being engaged as a Lieutenant of militia forces from Barnstable County, Massachusetts, against the Narragansett Indians in King Phillip's War. He was killed in action March 25, 1676 at Rehoboth, Massachusetts, his age not of record.
