In our family tree we have a Susan Fish dgt of John Fish who died falling from a tree. She may have lived in CT or Liberty NY possibly early 1800s. Possibly was mar. to Capt Robert Young who died age 40 of Typhoid in Liberty NY. Her middle name may have been Isham. Have you ever come across these Fish Folks in your genealogy?
No, I haven't, but we're stuck in Susquehannah County, PA in 1835 with Hubby's Fish line. His 2xgreat grandfather, one David Fish, died there in 1835 and we've not been able to find out who David's parents were. He was married to a Julina Dayton who outlived him by 6 years. Same story with her--no clue as to who her parents were. We can pretty much take the family back to them, but before them is a big mystery. David was born ca.1788[ going by the age on his cemetery record] but again, no clue as to where!! I have a sneaky suspicion he may have come from CT because I checked a CT census and several people with the same given names as David gave his sons lived there and I wondered if they were some kind of kin--but this is just grasping at straws. I'll print your info and if I come across your names, I'll let you know! Sandi Fish ----- Original Message ----- From: "Anne E.
