William Wilson Fulbright (January 8, 1785 - September 22, 1843[1]) was one of the early pioneers and settlers of Springfield, Missouri.[2] Although the founding of Springfield, Missouri, is often dated to 1829 when John Polk Campbell and his brother carved their initials in an ash tree with the intention of returning to the area, William Wilson Fulbright and his family moved and settled in the area in 1830 before the Campbell family returned.[3]
