Angeline Fulton, age twenty-seven was living in Carroll County, Kings
River Township in Arkansas in the 1880 census. Her son, William Collins,
age eleven, was also shown living with her so possibly the Census of Logan
County was taken first and he went back home to be with his mother in
Carroll County in time for the census to be taken there. Also living
with them were Angeline’s four children by Jacob Henry Fulton. They were
Samuel, age seven; Florence, age six; Lila J., age four and Elser age two.
Angeline Fulton married John Thomas Morrison, eighteen years her senior on
January 20, 1883 in Logan County, Arkansas. Their son, John Thomas
Morrison, Jr. was born in June 1884 at National Springs, in Logan County.
Her husband was a merchant and was known to have large sums of money,
which he always buried after he closed the store. He had one leg and a
peg for the other. Angeline believed that he, too, had been robbed after
he closed the store.
He was found dead in a wooded area. The money was never recovered,
although Angeline searched in the woods where his body had been found.
All of his assets went to his first wife. His will had never been
changed since their marriage.
