- The Fultons called their home Oakhurst for the majestic windswept oaks that surrounded the property.
- When the Fulton Mansion was built, its architectural style and mechanical systems were not typically found in this region. It was the only house in the area to have central heating, gas lighting and indoor plumbing.
- Fulton Mansion passed through a succession of owners — a private residence, a restaurant, a backdrop for a trailer park and a recreation center — until its acquisition by Texas Parks and Wildlife Department in 1976. In 2008, the mansion became a Texas Historical Commission property.
