Fulton County, Indiana
Fulton County is a county located in the U.S. state of Indiana. , the population was 20,836. The county seat is Rochester.

While most of them came to Indiana directly from New England, there were many who came from upstate New York. These were people whose parents had moved from New England to upstate New York in the immediate aftermath of the American Revolution. Due to the prevalence of New ...
