I never heard that before. I always wondered how my Grandfather got his name. I always though that maybe we had some latin blood and he was named for a distant relative. I have an uncle with the middle name Alonzo. John and Susanna are my gg Grandparents. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

My Grandfather, Lorenzo Dow Fisher's parents were Fanny Reynolds and Theodore A. Fisher. I am trying to get further back passed John W Fisher and Susanna Wells. It seems odd to me that the combination of Lorenzo and Dow would be back further if we weren't related somehow. My Grandfather, Lorenzo Dow Fisher went by the name Dow and he died in Ponca City Ok in the 1950's. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

We trust, happy in the Lord, Sept. 24, 1875, near Shamokin Dam, Snyder Co., PA., Sister Catharine Fisher aged 57 years and 17 days. Her death was very sudden and unexpected to all.

Sister F. embraced religion about thirty years ago, and united with the Evangelical Association, of which she was a worthy and accepteble member till death. She was beloved and respected by all who knew her. She leaves a husband and three children to mourn their loss. Her funeral was attended by a large and deeply affected audience to whom the Rev. B. F.

You have a good idea to make an alpha listing of all the names presented in the book. I will start working on this and let you know when it is complete. Should take a few weeks. The alpha listing will be a separate web page. Thanks for the suggestion, Donny PS - In the mean time, just do an edit-search to find names.

The nature of the illness was heart disease. Mrs. Horn had been about the house all day, working in the garden during the evening. After supper she helped her daughter with strawberries until about ten o'clock.

Mrs. Horn was born in Polk Township November 13 1849, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George W. Fisher. She married Mr. Horn Easter Sunday 1864. Eighteen years they spent in Andrews, Arkansas, and Union Township and the last twenty five in Huntington. A number of years their home was on Market Street, Mr. Horn having worked in the Erie car department. The home has been on the Etna road several years. She leaves the husband, two daughters, a son, two brothers, three sisters and three grandchildren. The children are Engineer John Horn of this city, Mrs. William Dumbauld of Union Township, and Mrs. Carl Miller of this city. Brothers and sisters are Samuel Fisher of Arkansas, Mrs. Rebecca Skinner of Blackford County, Mrs. Martha Haley of Illinois, and Mrs. Cynthia Lewis of this city. The Funeral will be held Friday afternoon at two at the Church of the Brethren, Rev. W.H. Miller of Roann officiating. Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
