I descend from Moses Fisher and Lucy Shafer (?Shaver or Sheffer) via their son Joshua Fisher, born in 1832. However, my records indicate Moses was born July 22, 1805. He married Lucy Shafer abt. 1830, and had 4 children with her - in Arkansas (Crawford Co.) Lucy died 1837-1839 and he remarried and had more children, moving to Texas (Williamson Co) abt. 1843. He and his 2nd wife Permelia Oliver Fisher are buried in the Presbyterian Cemetery in Georgetown, Williamson Co., TX. Apparently they were originally buried elsewhere, but the area was part of an impoundment for a lake, and their graves were moved to the church cemetery. Their son Joshua Fisher, b. 1832 (Crawford Co., AR) was father to my great-grandmother Maggie Fisher Casey. Now, I'll admit my sources may be wrong, but maybe there were 2 Moses Fishers (?).
