Surnames: Fischer/Fisher Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/YaW.2ACIB/869.1.1.1 Message Board Post: This may be the same line I am researching. The towns are the same, but the dates are a little early. My Samuel Fischer was born around 1804? He married an Elizabeth Hoffman. Baptismal records for their first born (Amanda Fischer) show his name as Solomon Fischer, but later records list him as Samuel Fisher. The Hoffman's were part of the Hoffman Reformed Church. It is possible they were cousins as everyone seemed to name their children after relatives. It becomes confusing. Let me know if you think this is the same line. Thank you. Karen Fisher Freund
