Tabitha, daughter of Josiah Jones ; he was an officer in the
Revolutionary war ; and Nathaniel, who married Ruhama,
daughter of' Samuel Jones. Capt. Nathaniel married a
second wife. I find no record of his family. Capt.
Nathaniel Fuller owned the west part of the farm now
owned by Mr. B. Blossom on Scorton Neck, containing
about 35 acres. His house stood on the south side of the
old way leading to Sandy Neck, and nearly opposite Ben
Blossom's house. In 1783 he sold his farm on Scorton
Neck to Edward Wing, and removed to a house just within
the boundaries of Barnstable, on the east of the causeway
leading to the Neck. It was taken down about 53 years
