What year was your Joseph Fisher born? Surry County, NC is right on the Virginia border. My father always maintained that our Fishers came from Virginia originally. Chris [email protected] The Fishers of the person whose DNA matched my husband's have an Albert and Alfred, who were possibly twins. They were in Mississippi around 1830 (grown) and then in Arkansas. Our feeling is that their family and ours came to Mississippi from North Carolina. The oldest known Fisher in my husband's family, Joseph Fisher, said on the 1850 census for Van Zandt Co., TX that he was born in Shiry Co., NC. There was no Shiry Co., but there was a Surry Co., and there were definitely Fishers there. Sue In a message dated 12/11/2007 9:21:28 P.M.

Chris, The first set of results we got back mentioned Sri Lanka. (My husband uses this a lot!) He matched perfectly with a man in California, and his wife and I have been corresponding. We have placed both families of Fishers in Mississippi in the late 1820s. We both have indications that they had migrated from North Carolina - most likely Surry/Stokes County. \ I believe my set of Fishers (husband's really) came to MS by way of Illinois. Our G W Fisher's oldest son says that he was born in Sangamon Co., Illinoia (I believe he had a different mother), and the next few children were born in Mississippi. The final three were born in Louisiana. The other Fisher family came through Mississippi and then Arkansas and on to Texas. My husband's Fishers were in Van Zandt, Texas by 1850. We took our DNA up a notch and once again matched perfectly. That brings us to within 200 years of a common ancestor. I have been away from active genealogy for the past year, but would like to get back with our California Fishers and take the DNA up another notch. Sue In a message dated 12/10/2007 8:33:16 P.M.

Sue, How intresting! Does the man in California have the last name of Fisher also? Which Haplogroup? Ours is J1. J1 Haplogroup J1 is found at highest frequencies in Middle Eastern and north African populations where it most likely evolved. This marker has been carried by Middle Eastern traders into Europe, central Asia, India, and Pakistan. The Cohen modal lineage is found in Haplogroup J1*. I just had a birthday and I requested a DNA test for myself to trace my mother's line. I have the test kit but haven't returned it yet. Can't wait to find the results of that!!!

My father never heard of a genealogist and was just passing on information he had been given by his father and grandfather. Now Middle Eastern traders did move up into Europe a long time ago so it would be possible I guess. What a mystery. Do you have DNA results for your Fisher line? If so I would love to compare.

Sue, Yes I did get his DNA results back and it showed we were Haplogroup J1. This Haplogroup is mostly from the Middle East. We do not match with most Fishers. Now I have photos of Rev. George W. Fisher, his son Samuel M. Fisher, his son George Nicholas Fisher, his sons John (my cousin's father and George Frederick (my father) and they all look so much alike there can be no possibility of a "non parental event" in any generation since 1808-1810. My father always maintained our Fishers were from Germany, used to have money and horses. He thought they came to Virginia and the name of the furthest he could remember was Luther. This sounds sort of like the Germana Fishers but I have not been able to connect to this Fisher family either. My father never heard of a genealogist and was just passing on information he had been given by his father and grandfather. Now Middle Eastern traders did move up into Europe a long time ago so it would be possible I guess. What a mystery. Do you have DNA results for your Fisher line? If so I would love to compare.
