Fisher, Jacob, Day Laborer, age 59, born Penn. Fisher, Susanna, Keeping House, age 28, born Penn.

Surnames: Fisher/Zellers/ Swinhart/ Melkus Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Vh.2ADI/2102 Message Board Post: If anyone knows anything about Susanah Zellers Fisher I would like to know. I am trying to trace my family tree. She was born in Pennsylvania estimated year 1841. She married Jacob Fisher also from Pennsylvania. They resided in Elkhart County, and they had three children that I know of. One Joshua Fisher my great grand father born around 1868. Joshua married Abbie Swinehart March 31,1891 A year later his mother Susanah Zellers Fisher died March 31,1892 She was buried as far as I know with a Sarah Melkus born in 1861 and died August 31,1898. I believe Saah was Susanah's only daughter. As far as I know their other child was a boy. Jacob is not listed with her I believe they divorced. I have not found any records as of yet to verify this. Any information would be great. Thank you. Jean Ann Fisher Hochstetler --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail - Helps protect you from nasty viruses.
