• Name	Ferman Egbert Fullen  [1, 2]
  Birth	18 Jun 1895	Texas   [2, 3, 4]
  Gender	Male
  Death	11 May 1944	Orange County, Texas   [2, 5]
  Notes	I was not able to locate the family of Ferman Fullen in Robert Cecil McDaniel's transcription of the 1920 Sabine County census. However, they were listed on the 1920 Texas Soundex as residents of Sabine County, as follows. The soundex references Vol. 142, ED 170, Sht 3, Line 18. I examined the actual microfilm and did find the family. The microfilm copy was very light and nearly illegible, however. It appears that the soundex information was probably correct. Per the 1920 Soundex card: Fullen, Firman E W 24 TX Fullen, Arlie V. W 24 TX Fullen, Walter O W son 6 TX Fullen, Minnie M D dau 5 TX Fullen, Margurite R dau 2 8/12 TX Fullen, Mona? M dau 8/12 TX According to a copy of an obituary for F. E. Fullen, not fully dated or referenced, "ORANGE, May 11--Ferman Egbert Fullen, 48, of Orange, an employee of the Consolidated Steel corporation, died at a local hospital at 7 a.m. Thursday as a result of injuries sustained when he fell several hours earlier at the shipyard. He was working as a carpenter. He was a brother of Otis Fullen, vice president of the Security State bank. He was said to have suffered a skull fracture in a fall into the hold of a ship. Mr. Fullen and family have lived in Orange for about three years. Funeral services awaited contacts with the two sons in the army, one of whom, Arlis Fullen, 19, was awarded the silver star for gallantry during the Tunisian campaign. He later was wounded in Sicily and is now in a hospital at Martinsburg, West Virginia. The other boy in the army Pvt. Marvin Fullen, is stationed at Boise, Idaho. He is survived by his wife, Mrs. Arrie Fullen, Orange; three daughters, Mrs. Hubert Deering, Houston; Mrs. J.D. Parker and Mrs. Madye Hennigan, both of Port Arthur; four sons, Walter Fullen, Newton; G.B. Fullen, Orange; Marvin and Arlis Fullen, both in the U.S. Army, three brothers, Otis and William B.
