Fulton County Folks Volumes 1 & 2
Edited by Shirley Willard
Fulton County Historical Society, Rochester, Indiana
1974 (Vol. 1); 1981 (Vol. 2)
Mixed printings (Vol. 1 2000 reprint; Vol. 2 original issue)
Both volumes are in fine condition overall. Volume 1 presents as essentially as new—clean, tight, and unmarked. Volume 2 is likewise clean and firm, with the only flaw being a partially removed bookplate to the front pastedown, leaving a faint remnant. Bindings remain square and solid with minimal shelf wear.
Hardcover bindings in contrasting cloth (blue for Vol. 1, teal for Vol. 2), with clear spine titling. Illustrated throughout with photographs and period images, alongside dense genealogical and historical entries. The contents span family histories, early settlement accounts, local institutions, and notable figures, supported by indexed names and structured entries. Produced by the Fulton County Historical Society, these volumes reflect a coordinated archival effort, combining narrative sketches with compiled family records and regional documentation.
This series represents the kind of grassroots county history that rarely sees large print runs and often remains locally distributed. The blend of anecdotal history, family lineage, and early regional context gives it lasting research value, particularly as a companion to cemetery and records volumes. Sets in this condition are increasingly difficult to assemble, especially with both volumes present and clean.
