Nelson G. Fulton was born in West Mertans, Indiana County, Pennsylvania about 1839. The census of 1860 shows him living with his parents, William and Mary A. Fulton, in Saltsburg, Conemaugh Township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania. Also in the household were his two younger sisters, 12-year-old Mary D. Fulton and 8-year-old Margaret (Maggie) L. Fulton.

 

As a result of an accident caused by an explosion of powder while blasting rocks in 1854, his father was entirely blinded in one eye, and severely injured in the other. As a result, his father had to abandon his trade as a butcher and was unable to labor sufficiently to support himself and his family. Nelson, then about 15 years old, stepped up to fill the void as family breadwinner. By working at a neighboring farm at different periods for the next five of six years he was able to earn wages, which amounted on an average to about $8 per month that he gave to his parents.

 

The summer of 1861 found him in Bluffton, Wells County, Indiana. How he came to be there is not known, but on July 10, 1861 he enlisted at Madison, Indiana for 3 years in Company H, 22nd Indiana Infantry. He was listed as 22 years old. He stood 5 feet 6 inches tall, had a sanguine complexion, hazel eyes, and dark hair. The regiment was mustered into Federal service on August 15, 1861. Even though he was now in the army, Fulton continued to contribute money to his parents' support. He sent home an average of $10 per month out of his $13 monthly pay.

 

Now a part of the Union Army, the 22nd Indiana was sent west to Missouri and with the rest of the Union Forces, eventually pushed its way south into Arkansas. Late in the year, Fulton was detailed as a Regimental Teamster driving a supply wagon for the army. He continued on this duty into early 1862, sometimes being away from his company in the process. In March 1862 he was still on detached duty as a Brigade Teamster so it is not clear if he was present when the 22nd Indiana took part in its first significant combat at the battle of Pea Ridge, Arkansas on March 7 and 8, 1862, which succeeded in keeping the southerners out of Missouri for the next two years.

 

By late spring 1862, the regiment moved to Mississippi and joined in the Union siege of Corinth. The 22nd Indiana also took part in the battles at Perryville, Kentucky in October 1862 in which it lost very heavily, and at Stones River, Tennessee on New Year's 1863 where it again was heavily engaged. Fulton apparently came through both fights without incident.

 

On July 23, 1863 Fulton was sent to the Field Hospital for some unspecified complaint. But by September 7, 1863 he was back to being detailed as a Company Teamster. Sometime during his enlistment Fulton ended up changing from Company H to Company I. Whether this was due to his transfer, or if it was just a matter of a change in designation of the organization is not clear. It may have happened as a result oh his reenlistment as a Veteran Volunteer on December 23, 1863 at Blain's Cross Roads, Tennessee. His new descriptive list, created in December 1863, was slightly different from the one created at the time of his original enlistment. He was now described as being 24 years old, 5' 7" in height, and as having gray eyes, brown hair, and a light complexion. And somewhere along the line, possibly after his reenlistment, Fulton was promoted to corporal.

 

The 1864 campaign opened with a drive intended to culminate in the seizure of Atlanta. Going was slow and brutal as Union forces pushed south from Tennessee into Georgia. In early May the Federal Army was advancing into Georgia, fighting its way from Dalton to Resaca. While the main force pushed on towards Adairsville, a smaller Union force was sent on a flanking maneuver to the west. As described by Lieutenant R. V. Marshall in his post-war Historical Sketch, "The city of Rome, Ga., was not on the direct route to Atlanta, but was situated 15 miles to the right at the junction of the Oustenaula and Hightower rivers. Here the Confederates had a division under Gen. French, protected by strong forts and earthworks. Gen. Davis' division [which included the 22nd Indiana] was detached and ordered to take Rome. This was done on the afternoon of the 17th [of May], after a spirited engagement of half an hour...Five men in the 22nd were killed and 14 wounded."

 

Corporal Nelson Fulton was one of the fatalities. He was killed in action instantly. Company records indicate that he was "Killed in action May 17, 1864 Rome, Ga." and that his "death was caused by 'a Rifle Ball,' shot through the head." An inventory of his effects lists $93 in notes. This was a large amount of cash for a soldier to be carrying, but he had last been paid on January 23, 1864 when he received several months of overdue back pay. Perhaps, with the various movements of the army in the interim, he had not had an opportunity to safely send the money home.

 

News of Nelson's death must have hit the Fulton family hard back in Saltsburg. Records show that his mother, Mary Ann Fulton, applied for a pension based on the fact that her "husband has been physically disabled for ten years" and that her son had been providing for her financial support before his death. William Fulton's affidavit stated, "Nelson G. Fulton was the only son of himself and Mary Ann Fulton; that by the death of the said Nelson G. Fulton his parents are deprived of his assistance for support and maintenance...[he] being nearly blind and unable to maintain and support his family without the aid and assistance of his son...since [the time of his blinding] and up to the death of his said son, he had the labor and earnings of the said Nelson G. Fulton to appropriate to the support of the family. That when said Nelson G. Fulton was alive in the Service of the Army, he sent all the wages due him except his necessary expenses for clothing himself...That after he entered the Army he still continued to contribute to the support of his parents by sending money, on an average about $10 per month. That the amount of property possessed by the said affiant and his wife Mary Ann Fulton the mother of Nelson G. Fulton, is a house and Lot in which they reside in Saltsburg, Pa., which residence cost $340, part of which sum was paid by said Nelson G. Fulton. Said soldier died leaving no widow nor children, but dependent parents."

 

Others corroborated the claims of financial assistance. Friend of the family Sarah Wolf testified "...all his wages was sent to her [Mary Ann Fulton] sometimes by mail and sometimes by express Co. and she [Sarah Wolf] saw her have the money." Someone else swore Nelson "regularly contributed to the support of his parents, by his labor before enlisting, and by sending money for their use afterwards." Neighbor James Leech testified, "Nelson G. Fulton constantly and regularly contributed to the support of his mother...from the time he was old enough to command wages to the time of his death, and that his contributions were equal to or more than one half of her subsistence." Even an Adams Express agent testified "on the 9th day of April AD 1863 he did deliver a money package to William Fulton, from Nelson G. Fulton containing thirty-five ($35) Dollars, & on the 17th day of November AD 1864 he delivered another money package to William Fulton containing Seventy ($70) Dollars sent to him by Nelson G. Fulton who was then serving as a soldier in the Army of the United States." This latter date would have been after Fulton's death, so if the date is correct, it may have been the pay due him at the time he was killed.

 

A pension may have eased the family's financial situation, but nothing could replace a lost son and brother. All that remained were a few small photographs. One pre-war tintype shows Nelson Fulton as a well-dressed young man in civilian clothes. Another tintype in a paper CDV mount shows him wearing an army frock coat that has been shortened into a jacket by having the skirt cut off. A bust view of Fulton on a paper CDV is in fact a mirror-image copy photo made from an earlier tintype or ambrotype. And finally, a full-length paper CDV pictures Fulton in a nine-button infantry frock coat with his arm resting on the back of a chair. On the back he has written in ink the name of his little sister, "Maggie," for whom he undoubtedly intended to give this picture. Above, written at a later date in pencil is the note "Mrs. M. A. Fulton 8X10 No. 10 Albumen as it is" and at the bottom "J Barger Agt." It would seem that after his death, Fulton's mother sent this picture to a photographic studio to be copied and enlarged, without modification, into an 8 by 10 albumen photo as a keepsake of her lost son.

In an increasingly digitized world, vast amounts of data have the potential to produce new and insightful information, and there is a growing debate on how the public and private sector can maximize the benefits of big data. One of the richest sources of big data is the data captured by the use of ICTs. ICT-related big data are helping to produce development insights of relevance to public policy, such as understanding socio-economic wellbeing and poverty, as well as improving the monitoring of the information society. This panel will examine opportunities and challenges in using big data from the ICT industry to complement existing ICT indicators. It will present the new ITU Big Data Strategy and discuss the role of different players, including the ICT industry, governments, and international organisations. The session will address the following questions:

How can big data complement current information society measurements based on official statistics?

What is the role of the ICT industry as key source of big data?

How can the private and public sector cooperate to maximize the benefit of using big data?

What should international organizations such as ITU do to encompass big data sources in their statistical work?

Throwing hard-drives into deep water is a long-standing tradition in the hacker community. Especially if you're expecting a police search.

 

I think that I read about it first in "The Hacker Crackdown - Law and Disorder on the Electronic Frontier" by Bruce Sterling. Correct me if I'm wrong.

 

In this case I had nothing to hide. This was the best target I could find for a remote viewing experiment in London, during the Psychogeophysics Summit.

The experiment didn't work - as was to be expected. But we had a lot of fun trying.
