    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Fisher, Patterson, Greenstreet Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/YVW.2ACEB/3754 Message Board Post: Looking for additional information on Elizabeth Fisher who married James Patterson in Greene Co., Il. 8-22-1844. He apparently died between 1850 and 1860 and she remarried to a James L. Jetton and lived in Scott Co., Il. where he died leaving her a widow with 2 patterson sons and 2 Jetton Children. The 1860 census lists her as a weaver and the 1870 census of Scott Co., Il. lists her as a widow and housekeeper. I had her listed as the daughter of John Fisher and Mary Polly Thompson as many others do, however a Thompson researcher adamently states this couple had only 1 child during the span of 1820 and 1825 when their daughter Temperance Fisher was born. Census records of different years show 1 and 2 daughters for this couple during that span so it is hard to tell if Elizabeth belongs there or not.If anyone has definite info on her I would really like to correct my records. I have over 3500 persons on my tree and Elizabeth is a problem. I am also missing a female Fisher born! about the same time (either 1824 or 1825) daughter of Peter Fisher of Green Co., Ky. and Mary Livicy Greenstreet. They had a son and daughter before Mary died, probably in childbirth, in 1824 or 1825. Just fishing, Thanks, kfr Thanks, kfr
