Fullam Family History & Genealogy

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Ella Amanda PACKARD FULLAM who was the wife of James Arthur FULLAM and Mother of James Phillip FULLAM. The photograph appears to have been taken in the 1880's with Ella likely in her teens or 20's at the time. Based on limited research I was able to locate the following information regarding Ella and her family:

Ella A. PACKARD was b. Jun 1869 in Wisconsin to parents James Knox PACKARD (1846-1933) and Florentine “Flora” Augusta DURRELL (1846-1933). Ella was one of 5 children born to this couple including, Ella; Mary C.; William Sylvester; Almond; and James C. PACKARD all born between 1869 and 1882. Ella married James Arthur FULLAM of FULLUM (1867-1961) and together they had 4 children including, Katherine or Catherine “Katie” Ellen; James Philip or Phillip; John William, and Thomas H. FULLAM or FULLUM, all born between 1889 and 1896. Ella died 14 Feb 1903 in Washington and is buried in the Buckley Cemetery in Buckley, WA. A daughter Catherine Eleanor “Kate” FULLAM WELLS is also buried in the same cemetery with her mother.

Ella’s daughter Catherine Ellen FULLAM was married to John Albert SEMMELHAACK (b. 1882 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada to parents John SEMMELHAACK and Lucia SCOTT) on 17 Jul 1911 in Vancouver, BC, Canada. John was listed as divorced at the time and 29 years old. Ella’s youngest son Thomas FULLAM b. 1896 married on 21 Dec 1920 in Vancouver, BC, Canada to Alberta Edith HOOEY (b. 1901 in Peterborough, Ontario, Canada to parents John James HOOEY and Evered BROOKS).
