Fulton, was born in Clarence, Cedar county, Iowa, Aug. 5, 1862, and died in her home at Plainfield, Iowa, at 6:30 Friday morning, July 17, 1885, Age 22 years, 9 months and 12 days. In 1880 she came to Plainfield making her home mostly with her sister, until Oct, 26, 1882, when she was united in marriage with Mr. F. C. Fulton. Theirs was a blessed and happy union, such a one as worth people and true hearts can form. Home, to them, was the purest and happiest place in all the world. And she was that kind of a womanly wife, devoted, faithful, patient and hopeful that could guild a life, or ornament a home with her pleasing manners and gentle ways, until that husband, and home were the goal of all of her sacrifices, devotions and hopes. Her union was a perfect exemplification of the highest ideal of home and marriage. She always had the respect of the people, and was kind to all. For some months disease preyed upon her delicate constitution, and with her husband, in whom the very springs of her pure life centered, she sought for medical treatment, until all means, and care, and skill had been utilized. But in vain! Gradually the change came on, and on Friday morning at 6:30, July 17, 1885, just as twilight was deepening into day and the golden sunlight was flooding earth, making bright and beautiful her upward flight, she peacefully and quietly passed away. The funeral took place on Sabbath at 10 o'clock a.m. and was attended by a large concourse of people such as never before witnessed in Plainfield. The funeral services were conducted by the Rev. Francis J. Norton, pastor of the Methodist Episcopal church, of Strawberry Point, Iowa, who is a personal friend of the family. Six young ladies showed their great respect for the deceased, by placing upon the casket anchors, crossed, garland and wreaths of the most beautiful flowers, tastefully arranged. The sermon was based upon the text Isa. 64-6. "We all do fade as the leaf." And was appropriately applied, in thought and illustration, and is to be printed in full. After the great concourse of people had viewed the corpse, the funeral cortege was formed and moved down main st4reet, enroute to Shell Rock, where in presence of relative and friends the interment and final obsequies took place. Mr. Fulton has the profound sympathy of all the people in this deep sorrow and bereavement. "Not learned, save in gracious household ways, Not perfect. Nay, but full of tender wants, No angel, but a dearer being, all di ?t In angel instinct, breathing Paradise!"

He was the sixth child of James and Nancy Ackley. Mr. Ackley made New York his home till 1855, when he came to Iowa, arriving in Union Township, this county, on the 24th day of November. The same fall he pre-empted the farm of 160 acres, where he still resides, on section 20, township 94, range 17, about two miles southwest of Marble Rock. The year following his arrival he built the first residence in Aureola, and was the first white resident of that place. Here they lost a child, Marian; at about the age of four months; this was the first death of the place. The high water caused considerable malaria, and Mr. Ackley and his wife were both afflicted with the malady, which caused them to change their location. He then moved to his farm, where he had just completed the building of a fine large frame house. This home they enjoyed till April 1860, when it was destroyed entirely by fire; the building was not the only loss. Having no granary he placed in this house all his grain, which was also lost, as well as the greater portion of his furniture. Though, Mr. Ackley has furnished us much interesting matter, we believe he could have furnished even more had he not lost in this fire a diary which he had kept since coming to this county. He at once erected a log house that served as a home till the year 1879, when he built one of the best residences in the county. His surroundings are beautified with shade and fruit trees, so that he has one of the finest homes and farms in the Northwest. On the 15th day of January 1861, he started with his family for New York; on account of snow blockades, it took them seventeen days to get to Dubuque; they shoveled snow most of the way. They returned in November 1862 to this county. In December 1863, Mr. Ackley enlisted in Company B, Seventh Iowa Volunteer Infantry, Judge Reiniger, Captain. Served his country till the war closed, being discharged in July 1865. His life as a soldier was an active one, participating in many hard engagements; a few of the most prominent ones we give below. We can group them by saying he was in all the battles near Atlanta, Peach Tree Creek and Sherman's march to the sea, Pumpkin Vine, Dallas, Jonesborough; here the color-bearer was wounded, and Mr. Ackley carried the colors till the close of the war. He was never wounded, but has stood touching elbows with men who where shot. A marvelous incident is related by Mr. Ackley, that we make note of here, illustrating how often death's missiles, though their numbers are legion, are ineffective: At Jonesborough they were ordered to charge upon the enemy double quick; during this act the shot and shell and rifle balls rained down upon them like hail, and not a single man was wounded. They had scarcely made this charge till they were ordered to make a similar charge in another direction; this they did under as heavy a fire as before, and not a single man was hit with a missile of death. Of course this is not the rule but a marvelous exception. At the battle of Ray's Ferry, Georgia, there were sixty-three men killed and wounded in his regiment in less than thirty minutes. The last three months of Mr. Ackley's service he was in the rear, on account of sickness contracted by the exposure of army life. Part of this time he was in the hospital; we are sorry to have to add that he has never recovered fully from these troubles; it seems almost cruel in nature to furnish men with disease the balance of their lives, who have contracted it in the defense of their country. Since Mr. Ackley's return from the army, he has resided upon his farm with the exception of three years, when he rented his farm and lived in Marble Rock. Mr. Ackley was married in New York State in 1863, to Miss Elizabeth Thayer, a native of Otsego County, N. Y. They have a family of three children - Leonora E., now the wife of Charles Morrison, and resides in Phillip County, Kan.; Elborn D., now twenty-one years of age; Merton I., twelve years of age. The sons are both residing at home. Mr. Ackley has been a life long Republican and Prohibitionist, voting first for J. C. Fremont. Has held the office of Assessor and Township Trustee several times, being among the first elected."  Charles Thomas ACKLEY   121 From the History of Floyd County: "G. C. Ackley (w)as born in Otsego County, N. Y., in 1827. He was the third child of James and Nancy Ackley. Here Mr. Ackley made his home till 1853, when he came to Floyd County, Ia., where he remained only a short time, when he went to Illinois and remained there three or four months; then he returned to this county, staid about six months, when he again returned to Illinois and staid till 1855, when he and the rest of the family came to this county, and have since resided. G. C. Ackley resides where he first settled with his parents, situated on section 20, Union Township. Mr. Ackley was married in this county in 1869, to Miss Lucinda Vanduzen. Their family consists of four children - Wm. Henry, Lilly Elmer, Charles E. and George M. Mr. Ackley is not only first among the citizens of this county in point of time, but in point of citizenship. Though not an aspirant for office he has always taken an active interest in the success of the Republican party. Mr. Ackley is another man, who, by his life, has demonstrated that it requires a man of energy and pluck to face these pioneer hardships."  Gideon C ACKLEY   122 Living with uncle Gideon Ackley.  Ida Victoria ACKLEY   123 Living with uncle Gideon Ackley.  Ida Victoria ACKLEY   124 The following info is from a 1882 History of Floyd County posted at http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/message/an/localities.northam.usa.states.iowa.counties.floyd/695, and also from the Descendants of Nancy Brightman site: "James Ackley was born in Otsego County, N.Y., March 12, 1799; married Nancy Brightman in New York, April 18, 1822. She was born in Rhode Island, Aug. 18, 1797. Moved to Illinois in 1864. Came to Iowa Nov. 24, 1865, driving from Illinois with a team, and settled upon the farm where G.C. Ackley now resides, on section 20, township 94, range 17. (Union Twp.) Here he made his home till his death, which occurred Feb 1, 1870. Mrs. Ackley is still living. Both were members of the Free-Will Baptist church. James Ackley's family consisted of eleven children; nine grew to man and womanhood, six sons and three daughters, all of whom are still supposed to be living. Their relative positions with regard to age follow as their names are given below - David, died at the age of ten, by falling from a tree and severing the jugular vein on a snag that had been cut sharp with an ax; Nancy died at the age of two, accidentally scaled by putting a tea kettle of hot water onto herself; J.M. and G.C.'s sketches we have already in this work; Wm. H. came to Iowa in 1853, returned to New York in 1857; after visiting there a short time he took the train for the West again, as his friends supposed, but since that day has never been heard from; Sally E. married Henry Schermerhorn in New York State and came West in 1855; Mr. Schermerhorn died in February 1882; the widow resides in Scott Township with her daughter, Mrs. Henry Montrose; C.T. and Russel's sketches are also in this work; Fannie married Egbert Davis, whose sketch will also be found here; Judson, whose sketch will also be found in this work; Mary Jane married Sam Rex, whose sketch will be found in this work."  James ACKLEY   125 From the History of Floyd County, p. 1082-1083: "J. M. Ackley (w)as born in Otsego County, N. Y., in 1825. He is the oldest living child of James and Nancy Ackley. Mr. Ackley made that State his home till he came to Iowa, which was in the winter of 1853, locating in Union Township, Floyd County. The first two years he was scarcely settled in this county, but spent a portion of it in Illinois visiting friends and working. The second year he returned to New York, and remained only about ten months, when he returned to Iowa in company with his brother C. T. and wife, and his own wife. At that date they could not go on the cars further than Dunliff; from there to Cedar Falls they staged it. From there they had to hire a conveyance, paying $12 for the pleasure of riding over the wild prairie. In 1855 Mr. Ackley and his brother C. T. pre-empted 320 acres of land, and built a long shanty. They had a partition through this building, each family living upon his own land, thus securing the clear title to the land under the law. Upon this land Mr. Ackley still resides, being situated on section 29, range 94 west, Union Township; has added to his first purchase, that that now he owns in all 215 acres. In the year 1872, or thereabout, he built himself a fine residence, being one of the best in the county. His home is nicely situated and presents a fine appearance. Mr. Ackley is now enjoying the fruits of life of ambition and energy and industry. He began at the stump, as some term it, and has raised himself to a position of independence. His start in this county was discouraging. On the way he and his brother C. T. each lost a large box of clothing, supposed to be burned up in the Chicago depot, the most of which was new and badly needed, for they were without a change of clothes and nearly out of money. These were indeed dark days. But for these stout-hearted pioneers the grand West, now swarming with busy people and waving with rich harvest, would be a desert still. Mr. Ackley was married in 1855 to Miss Julina Thayer, a native of New York. They have no family living; lost two children in infancy. Mr. and Mrs. Ackley have been members of the Free-Will Baptist Church for the past twenty-five years. Mr. Ackley was never an office-seeker though he has been a life-long and solid Republican."  John Martin ACKLEY   126 From the History of Floyd County: "R. J. Ackley (w)as born in Otsego County, N. Y., in 1835. He was the sixth child of James and Nancy Ackley. When Mr. Ackley came to Iowa he was twenty years of age, it being in 1855. He located in Marble Rock, where he still resides. He spent the summer of 1855 traveling in Minnesota looking at the country; afterward clerked in a store nearly a year in Marble Rock; the year following worked at the carpenter's trade. The winter of 1860 he taught school in Rock Grove, where he made the acquaintance of Mr. Gaylord. From this date till 1870 he was principally engaged in farming, though he worked at the trade of carpenter some of the time. In 1870 he went into the hotel business and ran the Marble Rock Hotel nearly a year. The year following he clerked for Shepardson & Beelar, dry-goods merchants. The year following he resumed farming, at the expiration of which time he assumed the management of the elevator and continued at it three years. He again engaged in farming and continued at it until 1879, when he took charge of the Beelar House and ran it nearly two years. At this date we find him still a resident of Marble Rock, enjoying a fine home and the society of his many friends. Mr. Ackley was married, July 6, 1861, to Miss Maria J. Baltimore, daughter of Ashbury Baltimore. They have a family of six children - Ella Irene, Viva Estell, Nancy Isabel, Ashbury J., Bertha May and Nellie Ethel. Mr. Ackley is a member of the Iowa Legion of Honor. Politically he is a Republican and Prohibitionist; has held the office of Town Clerk one year, Trustee two years, and Constable four years, and is at present a member of the Town Council."  Russell J ACKLEY   127 Records of Marvin D.
