Hi - new to list here: I have been researching a possible John Fisher - would be my 3great grandfather. My grandmother told me about a man named John Fisher marrying a Rachel Casteel. I have not been able to locate John Fisher, but have uncovered some interesting information along the way - all suspect, but hoping someone searching similar names might have some information. My great great grandfather Amos Fisher was born in 1846 (according to tombstone) in WV (according to Census). He was buried in Glade Farms, and I recently visited to find Glade Farms was about 2 miles long along RT 26. Found the cemetery down an overgrown path. Anyhow, a fellow genealogist found where the Fisher children were separated in 1850. I suspect that "John" Fisher died after Amos was born. But then the 1850 census lists a Rachel Cuppet living with a John Cuppet with a number of Cuppet children and 2 Fisher children. Some other sources have listed a Rachel Fisher married John Cuppet. I am theorizing here, but since Amos was so young, the "John" he said was his father, may have been the only father figure he ever really knew - John Cuppet. I sent away for Amos' death certificate and it lists no Father and only a last name for the mother - CASTEEL. All unconfirmed, but hopefully someone is working on this line and we can share information. Amazingly I have Amos' brothers and sisters - given to me by my grandmother long before the Internet existed. Thanks
