Biographical Note
Sanford H. Fulton, born in 1874, graduated from Michigan Agricultural College (now Michigan State University) in 1897 with a B.S. degree in agriculture. In 1922-1923, Fulton traveled west to study the life of his grandfather, William Fulton (September 29, 1809 - May 9, 1889). Fulton's tuberculosis condition worsened as a result of his travels and he returned to his home in West Virginia. He died in 1924, shortly after his return.
Scope and Contents note
Sanford Fulton's papers consist of one booklet entitled "The Life of William Fulton," written by Sanford about his pioneer grandfather in 1922. It includes a list of descendants of William Fulton, and an introduction by Sandford's brother, Merritt Fulton.
