Harry and Alma June 1972

Harry Fulkerson born July 2 1897 Indiana. died January 11, 1987 in Indiana. 1st wife Dorothy N. Aldridge   born August 1, 1901.  died 7 Dec 1971 in Palm Beach Florida Harry and Dorothy were married August 8, 1918 in Marion County, Indiana. 2nd Wife  Alma Louise Aldridge b: 11 Dec 1907  d: 26 Oct 1996 in Marion Indiana M: 16 Mar 1972 in Palm Beach Florida

Harry elected to stay in Indiana when the rest of the family moved to Michigan.  Except for a short time where he worked with his father and brothers at the Fulkerson Fuel and oil company.  In 1910 the census lists him living with his family in Marion Indiana at age 12.  the 1920 census shows him still living in Marion with his new wife Dorthy and is a machinist.  the 1930 census shows him living in Columbus, Ohio Listed as J. Harry Fulkerson as a salesman for an automatic machine company.  He put the J in front of his name because he felt it made him sound important and well to do.  They moved to Palm Beach Florida to retire where Dorothy died.  They had no children. Harry remarried 16 Mar 1972 To Alma Louise Aldridge, Dorthy's sister in Palm Beach Florida  (still listed as J. Harry on the marriage records) Three months after Dorothys death.  later They moved back to Indiana. The date I have of his death is 1987.  if this is so I do not recall seeing him at my grandfathers funeral in 1974.  He was suposed to have died in Indianapolis Indiana however there is not a record of his death that I can find at the moment
