This is a little appreciated topic. I am going to add information to this article on that. SimonATL 18:13, 18 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me that the mother of this guy is confused with his (half/step-)sister. The link in the intro of the text points to this sister. Can someone check this out please? 62.194.163.45 21:39, 5 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'll check out the links. I got interested in these various planter families in Roswell from a different direction, but have added some details for clarification. Martha (Stewart) Elliott was James Dunwody Elliott's step-grandmother, as she was the second wife of his mother's father Senator John Elliott.

Then the senator died and Martha Stewart Elliott, widow, married Maj. James Stephens Bulloch, widower. So then she was James D. Bulloch's stepmother.

Major James Bulloch and Martha Elliott had a daughter Martha Bulloch. She is usually the one highlighted, as after her marriage she became the mother of Theodore Roosevelt, who became president. She was stepsister to James D. Bulloch.

Very intertwined families, especially as mortality made multiple marriages common. Women often died young, especially in connection with childbearing.

I also added data about slaveholding. These people were in the planter class, and I think it's useful to point out what that meant. The labor was done by enslaved African-Americans, not "servants" who "helped with" tasks. All the leading families in Roswell (and I suppose, in Georgia) were planters.--Parkwells 13:28, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hold on a minute. This article starts by saying his work was covert ( but he was not a spy ) and then claiming, that he meet Booth when he was a Director of the CS secret service! This seems to be more conspircay theory rather than actual historical fact. The fact appears to be that he was in the same city at approximetaly the same time as Booth and that they might have meet. Nothing more. Can someone clear this up. 91.128.113.98 (talk) 17:04, 26 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Commander James Dunwoody Bulloch CSN, late Lt. Bulloch USN, did NOT return to the North American continent during the entire American Civil War EXCEPT during his blockade mission aboard the runner FINGAL into Savannah, Georgia - he returned via another blockade runner out of North Carolina to Liverpool just in time to put the FLORIDA into operation as a commerce raider. His only other return to the United States was several decades after the war to visit old friends and family in the New York City area, along with half-brother Irvine. Also, contrary to other half-truths and mis-statements, Bulloch and his half-brother were covered under Pres. Andrew Johnson's 1868 Christmas Pardon which removed ALL former Confederate officers and government officials, serving foreign, or otherwise, from any proscription by the US government. So whether Mr. Bulloch never "applied" for a pardon is moot-he was pardoned by US Executive order. Finally, proper research using Mr. Bulloch's memoirs and those of the Fraser Trenholm and Company (widely available on microfilm)can account for virutally every day of Mr. Bulloch's activities and movements during the American Civil War. The truth, gentlemen, is always stranger than poor research and fantasy theories. Dr. G L McKAy USNR —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.169.197.70 (talk) 10:46, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

So is it Dunwoody or Dunwody? TREKphiler ^{any time you're ready, Uhura} 03:51, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
