Dora Fulkerson b: 1855 in Clinton County Indiana d: between 1878-1880
	George N. Phares m: 14 Oct 1874
									David T. Detrick m: 12 Nov 1878
		OK now this one is interesting.  Dora was born and lived with her father Hiram and mother Mary along with her siblings all through her childhood.  She marries George N. Phares in 1874 in Tipton County.  Then George N. Phares shows up in Clinton county marrying Emma Gossard in July of 1877.  did George and Dora get divorced or the marriage anuled?  All I know is Dora marries David Detrick in 1878 in Tipton county using her madian name of Fulkerson.  So naturally I went to the 1880 Census expecting to find her and David as newlyweds starting a family.  Not so.  David T Detrick is living with the Hodson family as a boarder in 1880 with the occupation of Bricklayer in Tipton County.  He has listed himself as a widower so Dora had died sometime between 1878 and 1880.
