CHARLES
LESLIE FULKS, cashier of the First National Bank of
Dunkirk, has been actively identified with business affairs in
that community for more than fifteen years, and is one of the
well known bankers of Hardin County.
He was born at Wakatomika in Coshocton County, Ohio,
June 15, 1870, son of George W. and Eleanor (Graham) Fulks.
His father was a substantial Coshocton County farmer. The
son received his education in the public schools and also as a
student at Antioch College. His first important business
experience was as traveling salesman, a line he followed for
three years, and from 1893 to 1899 he engaged in farming.
Thus he has a varied knowledge of people in different walks of
life and his own success has been built from the ground up.
From December, 1899, to September, 1903, Mr. Fulks
was bookkeeper in the Woodruff Bank at Dunkirk, and in 1904
became cashier of the First National Bank, an office he has
filled for the past twelve years. He has also been active
in local affairs, has served as town councilman, as a member of
the school board, and is now treasurer of Blanchard Township.
Fraternally he is affiliated with the Masonic order and is a
member of the board of trustees of the Methodist Episcopal
Church.
On January 2, 1894, he married Miss Alice L. Howell
of Trinway, Ohio. Their five children are named Miriam
E., Mark H., Mary M., James K., and Louisa.
