Oldest documented relation is Hiram W. Fisher (1819-1864), married to Harriett C. Holmes (16 July 1822). They had 7 children. Confusing because I have also found documentation of a Herain Fisher, born close to when Hiram was. I thought maybe it was same person, different spelling. They both were married to a Harriett and some of the kids had same names.. To the best I can tell though, these were 2 different families.
