Good Morning Group, Any one out there searching Fishers from Switzerland who were thought GERMAN? There is a Fisher Family who according to the 1900 Census came over in 1872 and 1873 from Switzerland. 1880:U. S. Census: Washington Twp., Berks Cty., PA Nationa Archives Microfilm T-9, Roll 1101, ED 71, Sheet 26,pg. 406B:: FISHER,John Fisher, 44, head, place of birth: Switzerland; Barbara, 42, wife, Place of birth: Switzerland, John, 18, son, place of birth: Switzerland; Mary, 8, dau, born: PA, August, 15, son,born: PA; Joseph,6,son, born: Pa; Grace,5, dau,born: PA; Richard, 2/12, son, born: PA., 1900: Pennsylvania, Cambria Cty., Carroll Twp: Ed#106,sht#1B, Line 65: John Fisher, head, birth: Dec 1831,in Switzerland, Married for 38 years,immigrated to US in 1872, # of years in US. 28, Naturilization: NA; Barbara, birth: Mar 1838, in Switzerland, married for 38 years, Mother of 9 children, 4 are alive, year immigrated 1873, no. of years in US: 27; Theresa, dau. , single,birth: Sep 1876 in PA; Parents place of birth m&f: Switzerland; Edward, grandson, Sep 1897 in Pennsylvania, father born in PA, mother born in Switzerland. Looking for documentation to link this family: This could be John Fisher who married Barbara Tanager in the year 1859 in Schaffhausen Switzerland according to the IGI, Family History Center website. Look up Schaffhausen on a map it is about as close to Germany as you can get. If someone out there knows that this is not the same family please let me know. :+) Pattie Patricia Fisher Hamill My connection is to August=Augustine=Gus in the 1880 Census above.
