I have a marriage for my gggrandparents, John Maguire and Ellen Danahy for January 6, 1853. Now, they lived in Sloatsburg, NY ikn 1856 and Southfields, NY in Orange County, only 6 miles away, a few years later. They were both from Ireland but I believe they married in America. I'm wondering if there are records for marriages for 1853 someplace in Rockland County. Thanks so very much! Elizabeth Fairport, New York

The following was pulled from Wikipedia.com When the Duke of York (who became King James II of England) established the first twelve counties New York in 1683, present-day Rockland County was part of Orange County. Orangetown was created at the same time, originally encompassing all of modern Rockland County. Haverstraw was separated from Orangetown in 1719 and became a town in 1788; it included the present-day Clarkstown, Ramapo and Stony Point. Clarkstown and Ramapo became towns in 1791, followed by Stony Point in 1865. Rockland County was split from Orange County in 1798. I lived in Rockland for many years, and while it has changed much over the past 20 years, it was a wonderful place to grow up! Linda

I have no further info on Michael Fisher and his wife Maria. Their son David Fisher was b. in NJ ca. 1764. He died likely in what is now Ramsey, then Franklin Township, after 13 April 1826 when his will was written and before 5 January 1827 when the inventory of his estate was taken. He married Elizabeth, probably Elizabeth Achenbach, dau. of John George Achenbach and Annatje Van Buskirk, b. 3 June 1764. [Achenbach Family Record] "Elizabeth Fisher wife of David" died likely in what is now Ramsey, then Hohokus Township, with funeral from the Saddle River Lutheran Church, after 1 November 1854 and before 24 May 1855 at the age of 90.[Ackerman and Goff, Records of Zion Lutheran Churches, 73. Funeral of Elizabeth Fisher, wife of David, 90.] The will of David Fisher, (weak of body) of the Township of Franklin, was dated 13 April 1826 and proven 9 January 1827 in Bergen County. He mentioned first that he wished to receive a good Christian burial and that all his debts and funeral expenses be paid. Wife Elizabeth in addition to her dower rights was to receive the use of all household goods and furniture, during her widowhood, (except those herein disposed of). Sons Michael and David all tenements and real estate (subject to the right of dower of my wife, their mother). If they want to divide the land, David to have the tract with the old homestead. “Michael to have his share of apples from out of the orchard till he shall have apples of his own.” Sons to receive all horses, wagons, harnesses, and other farming utensils and stock (except wool wife shall want for her use). Three daughters Maria, Hannah, and Catharine $15.00 each, one year after my death paid by sons. Remainder after death of wife to five children share and share alike. The executors were his trusty friends Christian Wanamaker and John Mandingo and the witnesses were Peter Westervelt and David Christie (signed with his mark). David Fisher signed with his mark.[David Fisher will (1827), Bergen County Will Book C: 169.] Since the daughters received only a small amount of money, and no outsets were mentioned, it is very likely that they were all already married and had received their shares; their husband’s have not been identified. The old homestead, was undoubtedly the property in Franklin Township, David had inherited from his father Michael Fisher’s will dated 6 January 1802 and probated 9 June 1802. From that will David inherited “the south part of my farm, being the part on which I now dwell, per survey by John D. Harin, on March 15, 1796” also “all my horses, horned cattle, sheep and live stock; bed, cupboard, wagon, weaving loom and other utensils.” [Michael Fisher Will (1802) New Jersey Will 3229B.] His brother Michael was to receive the other half of the property, and the two of them were to pay their five brothers or their heirs and one sister $15 each. After the death of Mary all were to share equally in the estate.[Michael Fisher probate file (1802) No. 176, Bergen County Surrogate’s office.] Children of Elizabeth (Achenbach) Fisher and her husband, David Fisher, mentioned in their father’s will, and likely born in Ramsey, then Hohokus Township, where the family lived. Order of birth uncertain. i. MARIA3 FISHER, b. ca. 1780-1811. ii. HANNAH FISHER, b. ca. 1780-1811. iii. CATHERINE FISHER, b. ca. 1780-1811. + iv. MICHAEL FISHER, b. about 1799-1800, m.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Fisher Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.newyork.counties.rockland/3363.1.1.1.1/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi Arlene- Thanks for all the information. I do suspect my Rinear Fisher to be related to the Michael Fisher family in Franklin (Mahwah), NJ. I think he may be the grandson of Lewis Fisher's brother Rynhard (Rynert). I have been in touch with Rob Fisher through email several times and did receive some good info. but not the link I need. I don't know where else to look. I'm hoping this Bible will help but it hasn't been found yet. Thanks Again Stefanie
