Biography

John (Pulman) Pullman was born in England.

John (Pulman) Pullman migrated from England to California.

John was born on 17 Oct 1876^{[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10]} and was baptized on 27 Nov 1895.^[11] He left England for America in 1894 arriving in Philadelphia^[12] with his ultimate destination being his uncle in Philadelphia. John's uncle was William Henry Pulman and John stayed there at least to 1903^[13] and probably until his marriage. In 1907, he married Catherine Michael^[14][15] and they found their own home.^[7] Unfortunately, the marriage did not last as John had fathered a child with Minnie Jacobi. No record of divorce from Catherine has been found nor any record of marriage to Minnie although he and Minnie did have have a second child in 1912 and moved after 1914 to California where they had a third child. John passed away on 27 Dec 1949.^[16]
