George Fulcher was born December qtr 1875 in Woolwich, Kent
and was a Sergeant Major in the Royal Artillery at the time of marriage.
His father was William Henry Fulcher, who was deceased at the time of George's marriage.
In 1914 George was a Lieutenant and District Officer with the Durham RGA in Hartlepool, and involved the the Bombardment of Hartlepool 16 December 1914. The Royal Garrison Artillery was part of the Royal Artillery and was responsible for heavy guns.
His medal card, dated 1923, states Lieut (indecipherable squiggle) Captain. The card records that he was awarded the British War Medal.
Major George Fulcher was appointed Air Raid Precautions Officer for Hartlepool Borough Council in 1939, having retired from the Army after many years in India. He died 26 June 1950 at his home. The funeral took place at St. Hilda's Church, Hartlepool on 29 June 1950.
It is thought that the Fulchers returned to Britain during the 1914-18 war, and the ship they were travelling on was torpedoed somewhere in the vicinity of Egypt. Major Fulcher appears in a 1917 directory, living at 3 Radcliffe Terrace, where the family lived until the Major died.
