William Fulman,
ANTIQUARY,
Was the son of a tradesman of Penshurst, where he was born in 1632. He was sent by Dr. Hammond, the incumbent of Penshurst, to be educated at Oxford, but was ejected by the Parliamentary visitors along with his patron. After the Restoration, he obtained the living of Meysey Hampton, in Gloucestershire, where he died in 1688. He was well read in antiquities, and wrote historical notices of the University of Oxford, ("Academiæ Oxoniensis Notitia.") "Comments on Bishop Burnet's History of the Reformation," and edited the works of Charles I., and of his patron, Dr. Hammond.
