On a fishing expedition with a specific individual in mind. The bait: William F. FISHER b. about 1836 in Louisiana I'd like to find out where in Louisiana and connect him to his birth family & siblings. He is supposed to be Irish. On one census it shows both is parents as born in Louisiana. I don't have any indication if this family is in the New Orleans area or elsewhere. Meanwhile, this is what I know about the rest of his life: His wife is Emmeline possibly-BEACH who was born about Sept. 1835 in New York. In September 1866 they had a son (Henry Beach Fisher) born in Wisconsin (Port Washington) or Michigan. William F. Fisher also went by W.F. He was a physician. The family shows up in Manistee Michigan in 1870. There was a daughter, Jenny B. Fisher, born in 1871 in Minnesota. On the 1880 federal census and 1885 Minnesota census the family is in Saint Paul, Ramsey county, Minnesota. Dr. W.F. Fisher dies before 1900, and his son Henry B. Fisher moves to Santa Clara county, California, taking his mother. She lives with him until her death in 1921. Thanks for any help or suggestions. Mary ~Northern California
