Carland as marrying a Jasper Fisher. Sarah is the daughter of Armstead B. Carland and Mary Isreal. I found both Jasper and Sarah single in 1850 with their parents and Sarah, still listed as Carland, with her mother in 1860. This Sarah was born abt. 1830 and I dont have anything more for her after the 1860 census. Its possible I have linked Jasper to the wrong Sarah, its been awhile but I think I linked them by a marriage listing and their ages.

Fisher who served in the 104th Infantry of the New York State Volunteers (Civil War). The papers were dated July 17, 1865 and had two signatures, one of Edwin D. Morgan. The other I couldn't make out. The paper was framed and hanging above my head. It is possible that the unit was the 106th or 111th. I couldn't tell because it was handwritten and ink was faint. The selling price was $150. Contact me if you want further information.

Yes, there may well be a link, Mark isn't that big a place, so it could ndeed be that we are related! My earliest ancestor is a James Fisher, his parents were either Henry and Mary or James and Tabitha, unfortunately there were 2 James Fishers born within a year or two of each other, one to each couple, and I haven't yet been able to establish which James is mine! To this end, I asked the advice of a professional researcher, he wasn't able to find out either, but suggested that I extract all the Fishers from the parish records and piece together who belongs to which family, and examine the incidence of names...which is where I am at the moment. He has extracted the Fishers up to 1850, and I am piecing them together. I can send you all the Fisher baptisms, marriages and burials from the Mark parish records if that would be helpful!

John may or may not have married a Parthenia XXX and had 2 children, Julia E. Huffsottt (b. 1847) and Mary F. Huffstott (b. 1850). He also married Eliza Jane Leibert/Libert (b. 1839, d. 1915) in or near Beaver Cty, PA. They had 2 sons, Hosea Huffstot (b. 1859, d. 1937) and Charles Lane Huffstot (b. abt 1861). John apparently went off to the Civil War and did not return. Eliza was a poor widow who lived with her sister Hattie. The family eventually moved to Youngstown, Ohio. Hosea married Caroline/a Wolf (1858-1932) and had 3 children, one was my grandfather. Your discovery of Ursula Huffstodt is the earliest one I have heard of. I have heard that my 'Huffstot' relatives came from Ave, Mecklenburg-Schwerin (Germany), date unknown. Does this sound right for Ursula? If any of this sounds familiar, please let me know. I have also heard of a William Hoffstot/Huffstot around the early 1800's and a Rebecca (first wife of John Gorrel). John may have been a sibling or cousin. Clearly, the spelling was phonetic in those days, but I know my information back to Eliza is correct.

Just wanted to add a few comments as I have received some comments on this story ;) I originally found our German Fischer cousin nearly three years ago. We had 'oral' histories mentioning that our Fischer was from Oberelsungen, but had no confirmation (and as previously mentioned, could not find it on a map). A well known online Hessian researcher graciously looked up our Ludwig Fischer in the HETRINA - and that along with mapquest - started this search. That was nearly three years ago, but we only received the previous four generations' data in May of this year. We didn't care how long we had to wait, we were so grateful! I just wanted to warn you that it is not an overnight discovery. It can be easy to find them, but you must be patient to get a response :) Our relative had to take off work because the church offices/archives were only open every other Friday.
