Hi Winnie! LOTS of info on both of them at search engines below: Their marriage with both their parent's names is listed on this page (along with his parent's marriage information): http://www.rootsweb.com/~vastaffo/marriages/fishermarriagesl.htm Go to the main search page and type in both their names for birth, death, marriage, census, etc. information. CLICK HERE: http://www.rootsweb.com/~vastaffo/ You can also search Fredericksburg, VA newspapers for their (and their family member's names). I'm really rushed today and will be busy until after July 7th, but "buzz" me again and I'll send you that URL. The links above should keep you busy for awhile, though! If Fannie ends up being related to our William A. Shelton, son of Rodney S., son of Edward Shelton, please share what you come up with! (Just post it at VASPOTSY-L@rootsweb.com, VASTAFFO-L@rootsweb.com for everybody researching this line with me!) Thanks! God Bless You! God Bless America and Israel! America and Israel, Bless God! Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem (Psalm 122:6; Genesis 12:3)!
