Author: Marianne_Vol_Researcher Surnames: Fisher, Stevens, Dobie Classification: obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.fisher/7516/mb.ashx Message Board Post: The Richwood Gazette Richwood, Ohio September 26, 1889 Benjamin Stevens Fisher died suddenly at his home in Richwood, on Sept. 23, 1889. Had he lived ten days longer he would have been 81 years old. He was born in Fayette county, Pa., Oct. 4, 1808. His parents' names were Enoch and Elizabeth (Stevens) Fisher. His father, Enoch Fisher, was a soldier in the war of 1812, and died here in Richwood in August, 1865, at the advanced age of 101 years. Whe about 12 years of age Benjamin came with his parents to Ohio and settled at Mt. Vernon. At Mt. Vernon he was united in marriage to Catharine Cramer, May 14, 1829. Thus this couple have walked life's journey together for 60 years and 4 months, until death has broken the bond, leaving this widow to walk the remainder o the journey alone. Eleven children were born of this union, all of whom were raised to adult age, the youngest being now over 35, and seven of them live and are here to follow the remains of their father to the grave. "He came to Union county in May, 1836, and has been a resident here over 53 years. He settled on and cleared from the woods the farm one mile west of town since known as the Mulvaine farm, where e lived for about nine years. Selling this, he purchased the now excellent farm adjoining Richwood on the south, which also he cleared, mainly from the heavy and unbroken forest. He performed, probably, as muc hard labor, and through as many years, as any man who ever lived in this community. About 21 years ago he divided his handsome fortune in property he had accumulated among his childen, and moved into town, where he has resided until his death. It was a task for him to let go of labor and live an inactive life, and only inability to work compelled him to do so. But, because of his life long habit of strictest temperance and a system toughened by being inured to toil, he long delayed the day when death should conquer him. "But death came, as he will come to all. On Monday, Sept. 23, he was attacked with a fit of coughing, a not uncommon thing, but hemorrhage ensued, and almost without a warning to his family and friends, the brittle cord of life was snapped and his spirit had taken its flight to the eternal world. "He was the last of his father's family. His youngest brother, William, died here in June, 1888, and his only remaining sister, Mrs. Priscilla Dobie, died also here in January, 1889. His death severs another of the few remaining links that bind the present generation to the early settlers of this part of the country. "A picture recently taken will illustrate this. In the picture was Benjamin Fisher and his eldest son, and his eldest son and a great-grandson- four generations in a living group. He has had 45 grand children, 33 of whom are living, and eleven great-grandchildren. "The deceased has lived in this community for 53 years, known of almost everybody and respected by all. His accumulation of property was not by speculations of doubtful transactions of business, but by strict economy and patient toil. If others have wronged him, still he lived and died with the consciousness of having no one. He united with this church soon after settling here, and has lived more than 50 years one of its consistent members, and was one of the oldest members, his wife having joined the church about two years before him (in 1836) and Sister Hastings having joined a year preceding her (in 1835). He lived to see the last one of his children also members of the church. Few families there are where so many have been raised maturity without being broken to death; few where all the children have settled within a half hour's distance of the paternal roof; and few where none of the children have given their parents cause of special anxiety pain. "For a few years past, though deprived by the infirmities of age from attendance at the house of worship, as was his life long habit, yet he was growing in the tenderness and grace of the divine Spirit, and had felt that he was ready for an exchange of worlds when his call should come. Often at prayers in the family has he responded most earnestly to the petitions I offered, and arose feeling stronger in faith, with love increased, and with brighter hopes for the better life. "God has called his servant home, and this widow and these children and friends will expect to meet and greet him when they themselves shall be permitted to enter within the pearly gates."

Author: BobMartinez48 Surnames: Fisher Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.fisher/62.485/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi, my name is Roberto (Bob) Martinez Fisher from Los Angeles. I came from Ensenda, Baja California in 1962. My G-g-grandfather was William Fisher, the main Jefe. My grandfather was Jose Maria son of Cipriano. Your William Fisher was probably the son of Cipriano Fisher who was son of William Fisher making your grandfather and my mom first cousins. You and I are cousins. See the attached: The following information was taken from the book "Guìa Familiar de Baja California" (Vital Statiscs of Lower California) by Pablo L. Martinez, published in 1965, which contains around 12,000 accounts of birth, baptism, marriage and death extracts from ecclesiastical and state records from 1700 to 1900. The founder of the Fisher surname in Baja was William Fisher, an American who was rebaptized in San Jose del Cabo on May 29, 1830 under the name of Jose Guillermo Ceseña, after his future father-in-law Cipriano Ceseña. He married a daughter of the latter, Liberata by name. (In those distant days, the non-Catholic immigrants had to be rebaptized in accord with that rite so they could become members of the community and above all, to be able to marry. The baptized foreigners generally adopted a Spanish first name and as last name they took that of their godfather, although in most cases they afterwards returned to the use of their original surnames, as William Fisher did).The couple had one daughter, Maria, and four sons: Fiacro, the twins Tomas and Cipriano (born on Nov 1, 1842) and Guillermo. This Guillermo died in San Jose del Cabo in 1879 at 37, and was the husband of Adelaid Mora, but it is not known if they had children. (Guillermo is the Spanish for William, and the times that the name appears on the records are in Spanish). After 1844, William and Liberata migrated to Alta California and many years later some of their children came to Baja. Cipriano married Manuela Mauriño (b. 1846) from San Jose del Cabo and had at least ten children; girls: Adelfa (b. 1875), Ana (b. 1890) and Rosaura. Boys: Guillermo (b. around 1865), Jose Maria (b. 1868), Jesus (b. 1887), Francisco (b. 1894), Carlos, Alfredo, Daniel and Eduardo (died at 7 or 8 yo). So, as you can see there a quite a few Fisher members in Baja. There other members in San Jose/Santa Clara California, if you contact me at [email protected], I can send you a picture with a whole lot of the Fishers up in San Jose. Some of the ones in Baja are brown and most of the ones up north are white :>) Hope to hear from you. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

I'm afraid I don't know my Germany geography enough to know if Undenheim is in Prussia? Caspar was buried in St. Boniface Cemetery in Marshan township, Dakota County, MN. His birth date was 13 May 1838 and death date was 09 Nov 1914. He was married to Elizabeth Truex. He and Elizabeth immigrated in 1844. Nicholas Schilling was born in 1840. Both brothers were stone masons. Nicholas moved around more, to Iowa, to Calhoun County, IL, and I believe to St. Louis, where he may have died. His wife, Elizabeth (perhaps Karp), lived in St. Louis until her death in 1921. Nicholas is my paternal great great grandfather and my trail stops with him, so if anyone has any hints for me, I am really eager to find anything else about him.

However, since both came to Dakota County in the mid 1800's from Germany, that's very interesting, since that's where our Schillings were located, and almost too coincidental to dismiss. There is a Johann Nikolaus SCHILLING born in 1634/35 in Undenheim, so the name Nicholas, as well as Fisher does appear in our line. And it very well could also be English. As of now, I'm not sure what the connection might be or if there is any. Another curious thing, I know that there was a Caspar SCHILLING buried in Undenheim at the cemeteries we visited. Do you know where your ancestors were from? Thanks for writing. Will keep looking. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
