Thomas Charles Fuller (February 27, 1832 – October 20, 1901) was a prominent politician of the Confederate States of America and later a federal judge.
Born in Fayetteville, North Carolina, he was the youngest of three children born to Thomas, a merchant, and Catherine Eleanor (Raboteau) Fuller.[1] After his father's premature death, Fuller's mother moved the family to Louisburg, where her husband was originally from. Fuller attended the University of North Carolina from 1849 to 1851 and later returned to Fayetteville and established a law practice there with his brother Bartholomew.[2]
He married Caroline Douglas Whitehead on November 5, 1857, and they had 11 children.[1]
