    3. Winnie - My Fisher line is from Pennsylvania and Northern Maryland, but none of the names you have seem to ring a bell with me. I'm sharing with Mary to help her get her site started, so you'll probably be able to take a look at what I've got there. My personal line runs from Hanns Fisher (we think) in Deinsdorf, Germany, to George Fisher b. 1734 Deinsdorf, Germany, to Michael Fisher b. 1757 Maryland, to Adam Fisher b. 1790 Maryland, to George Washington Fisher b. 1831 Pennsylvania, to Edgar Fisher b. 1854 Maryland, to Edgar Wells Fisher b. 1890 Maryland (my grandfather). The Hanns Fisher link is NOT proven, and I'm not sure that can be, but the circumstantial evidence is pretty strong. If I'm correct with this link, then I have George's maternal line (Arnold/Arnoldt) going back to the 1540's. I can give reasonbly good sources for most info back to George's immigration to America. Before that seems to be good info, but was obtained from other amateurs without much source material. The dates, places, and names match very well, though. Some other surnames are Mathias, Fair, Houck, Bailey (Beli), Foreman (Fuhrman), Lawyer (Lauer), Smeeth (Smuck). These are all descendants of George that branched off in the first couple of generations. If any of this seems to fit your line let me know and I'll be glad to share whatever I have with you. That goes for anyone else on this mailing list as well. I'm always happy to meet cousins and share family history with them! :-) Doug Fisher ----- Original Message ----- From: "Winnie Nichols" <fayth@charter.net> To: <FISHER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 7:13 PM Subject: Re: [FISHER] Fisher Photo and message site > Hello All, sure would love to find some of my "Fishers/Fischers.
