2 CONC County, N. J.; his parents were from Wales. When in his seventeenth
2 CONC year he made a profession of religion and joined the Methodist Church,
2 CONC in which he was licensed to preach in 1811, soon after which he came
2 CONC to Kentucky, and for two years traveled the Henderson and Hartford
2 CONC Circuits. On account of loss of health, he located in 1815, settling a
2 CONC few miles from Russellville in Logan County, where on the 25th of
2 CONC September, 1816, he married Miss Sallie Marshall, a woman noted for
2 CONC her amiability and piety.
2 CONT
2 CONT They remained in Kentucky until 1820, moving them to St. Clair County,
2 CONC Ill., where until 1825 he labored as a local minister, but in the year
2 CONC 1825 joined the Conference and traveled for some years, and until his
2 CONC health compelled him to locate. In September, 1837, he returned to
2 CONC Kentucky and settled in Logan County, where the remainder of his life
2 CONC was spent; he died on the 3d of May, 1863, his last hours being
2 CONC peculiarly characterized by that peace which he had so long and
2 CONC faithfully preached; his widow died in McLean County, Ky., in 1879.
2 CONT
2 CONT Their family consisted of ten children, of whom six sons grew to
2 CONC manhood, viz.: Evan G., Dennis M., Ezra L., Samuel M., Joseph W. and
2 CONC James G. Foulks. Ezra L. Foulks was born near Belleville, St. Clair
2 CONC Co., Ill., January 12, 1823; he was educated chiefly in the McKendree
2 CONC College, of Lebanon, Ill., and in 1852, in Logan County, KY., was
2 CONC married to Miss Sarah A. Browder, daughter of Rev. Thomas and Sarah
2 CONC (Claywell) Browder. She was born March 6, 1826, in Logan County.
2 CONT
2 CONT Since 1858 they have resided in Hopkinsville, Ky. They have a family

2 CONT
2 CONT Pg. 240 - Joseph Foulks . . . was born in Monmouth County, New Jersey
2 CONC August 30, 1786. His parents were from Wales and were members of the
2 CONC Moravian Church. His mother, however became a Methodist, and two of
2 CONC her sons afterwards became Methodist preachers.
2 CONT . . . In 1825, . . . he was readmitted to the Illinois Conference and
2 CONC appointed to Shoal Creek Circuit. Whilst on this charge, he killed a
2 CONC man in self-defense. He had said something in a sermon that displeased
2 CONC the man, a drunken half Indian, half negro, who swore that he would
2 CONC take the preacher’s life. The fears of the family with whom he was
2 CONC staying being arroused by seeing the man whet his knife, they urged
2 CONC Mr. Foulks to be on his guard. Acordingly, upon retiring, he took with
2 CONC him a gun and remained awake to watch. In the night, the Indian crept
2 CONC stealthily up the stairway with his knife and a gun in his hand, and
2 CONC just as he appeared above, Mr. Foulks fired; the ball struck the man
2 CONC in the breast, killing him instantly. At the ensuing conference his
2 CONC conduct was "fully approved." . . .

2 CONT
2 CONT "Dear Michael:"
2 CONT
2 CONT "Attached are many papers concerning our roots. My mother was Emily
2 CONC Maude Foulks. Her father was Joshua Sweet Foulks. These papers trace
2 CONC the Foulks family back to George Foulks born in Germany in 1745.
2 CONT
2 CONT "George's grandson -- Charles -- married 4 x and had 22 children. So
2 CONC my grandfather had 7 brothers and sisters and 14 half brothers and
2 CONC sisters. Therefore, many people of the following names could be
2 CONC related: Liggett, Adams, Ewing, Grundy, English, Griffin, Galbraith,
2 CONC Andres, Bull, Shaw, Kansteiner, Bowersox, Coan, Messmer, just to name
2 CONC a few.
2 CONT
2 CONT "We should get records of my mother's mother named Owen. Also, of my
2 CONC father's other whom we suspect was illegitimate. But hang onto these
2 CONC papers for some day they would be of interest.
2 CONT
2 CONT "Pop."
2 CONT
2 CONT This letter was accompanied with a typewritten tree with information
2 CONC that may or may not be 100% accurate and may even conflict with the
2 CONC written narratives that accompany it. My grandfather wrote (in 1985)
2 CONC that "there are Foulks in 26 states and they probably number between
