Examples of Quaker Sufferings

1660, Lancashire:

“... Forty three persons were taken by a party of horsemen, without a warrant, ... and committed to Lancaster Castle, namely ... ,Thomas Fisher, ... By the end of the year, two hundred and seventy Persons of this People were prisoners together at Lancaster, mostly for refusing to take the Oaths ...”

1664/5, London:

“You and every one of you shall be transported beyond the Seas, the Men to Barbadoes, and the Women to Jamaica, being two of his Majesty’s Plantations, there to remain Seven Years.” (Magistrate to a boy of 15, one of a group of Quakers which included Elizabeth Fisher, who were arrested for refusing to take the Oath in London.)

“the Prisoners were not willing to be active in their own Transportation ... five and fifty of them were taken out of Newgate, ... and carried down the River to ... the ‘Black Spread Eagle.’ ... The Soldiers in the Barge laid hold on the Prisoners, dragged some, kickt and puncht others, heaved up many by the Legs and Arms, and so tumbled them into the Ship ... (Sentence of Transportation, for Elizabeth Fisher and 54 other Quakers being held in Newgate Prison.)

1672, Wexford, Ireland:

...Susannah Fisher, a Widow, had her Wool and Corn taken away, under pretense of Tithes, in a very extravagant Manner, by one Walter Bulger, and was abused by his Son with Blows. ... When told of this Inhumanity to a Widow, he carefully answered, “There’s no Law for Quakers.”

1682, Hartfordshire:

“...John Fisher, Constable ... refused to act in breaking up a Dissenter’s meeting, had the Oath of Allegiance tendered him by the Justices, and upon his Refusal of it ... he lay long in Prison.”

Preface

In 1968 we interviewed relatives, made a few searches, and distributed to our family a short “Fisher-Thornton Family History.” We had managed to discover and record our Texas and Oklahoma Fisher ancestry back to the Iowa Quaker Cephas Fisher, born in 1812 in Ohio, with parents somewhere in Pennsylvania. We had also identified several generations of our other Fisher ancestral branches, including the Long, Kelly, Van Tassel, Davis, Harp, Hartman and other families. At that point, we left off the research to concentrate on raising our children.

In 1976, we obtained the newly-completed “Isaac Thornton (1817 - 1906), His Descendants and Some of His Forebears,” by Beatrice Thornton Keeling and Wanda Willard Smith, which traces the Thorntons to the English immigrant Hosea Thornton, born about 1695. We do not know if this is in any genealogical library, but we now plan to see that it is made available.

In 1992, we resumed the Fisher research when our daughter, Laura Armer, discovered the genealogy of Cephas Fisher Sr. of Ohio, in the Mormon ancestral file. We soon established our connection from Cephas Fisher Jr. and began to locate and study additional sources in the Mormon family history catalog. We learned that our Fisher line had been studied before and was known back to Thomas Fisher and wife Elizabeth Huntley, in the early years of the Pennsylvania Colony. We began a new study and resolved to produce a new Fisher family history, documenting not only our Fisher relatives of the present and recent generations, but also telling the story of who our Fisher ancestors were and how they lived. We decided to include basic information on the Thorntons, but to leave the Thornton story to the Keeling-Smith book.

In the Mormon family history catalog, we discovered genealogies done by William Logan Fisher in 1839, T. M. Potts in 1895, Anna Wharton Smith in 1896, B. F. Cummings in 1898, Pauline Leslie in 1960, and Thelma Fisher in 1978 which addressed the genealogy of the early Fishers of Pennsylvania. Pauline Leslie seems to have been the first to work out the descendancy from Thomas Fisher to the Ohio Fishers. We first studied the source records, verified that the descendancy from Thomas is provable, and scoured the records for details to take the story beyond the previous works. Then, in checking the ancestry proposed for Thomas, it became obvious that no one had correctly identified his parents.

After several years of painstaking study, I believe I have found Thomas Fisher’s parents, who would be our ancestral immigrants. I have ruled out some of the published assertions and have narrowed the possibilities for the ancestral connections. From this research, I hope all Fishers with English ancestry in early Pennsylvania can gain insight about who these Fishers were. I have included in this book the results of the study, including sketches of all the Fishers in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware and Maryland before about 1725.

In other volumes, we will share all the old photographs we could locate for these families; and histories of the Francis Standfield, Samuel Standfield, and William Huntley families of Pennsylvania.In the near future we will place the completed results of our research in the Latter Day Saints (Mormon) Family History Library, and also in the Clayton Genealogical Library in Houston, Texas. The Mormon library catalog can be consulted at any of the numerous Mormon churches which have Family History Centers, or at the Mormon library at Salt Lake City, Utah.

This was my first attempt to share my genealogy findings. Refer to my later books whenever in doubt about this one.

New Information

• Mrs. Robert Fisher (Sophie) of Flint, Michigan heard of my research and sent the 1701 land warrant for Thomas Robinson and Thomas Fisher, pushing back the known records by 12 more years. She also found and provided the patent and resurvey to Thomas Fisher of the same land in 1739, and provided Fisher land records for the tracts in Caln Township. I found Thomas Fisher’s quitrent records in the microfilmed rent rolls in the Mormon Family History Library, showing that he paid 38 years of back quitrent to the sons of William Penn in 1739, with Thomas Robinson’s name struck from the roll.

• I did not know about the 1703 warrant and survey in Kennett for William Huntley, and did not know that the Huntley tract was the one labeled as “William Harvey” in Gilbert Cope’s 1911 map. I speculated incorrectly that the Huntley and Fisher farms in Kennett were the same.

• I thought the lower segment of Thomas Fisher’s tract in Kennett was marked “J Fisher” on the Gilbert Cope map, and concluded it was for James, son of Thomas. The mark actually says “T” Fisher and that segment was never set aside for James.

• I speculated that Thomas Fisher of Chester County may have been a son of Dennis and Susannah Fisher of Salem, West Jersey. There is no reason to assume any connection.

• I speculated that Thomas Fisher of Chester County may have been a son of James Fisher of Sussex County (who was a son of John and Margaret Fisher). No evidence has been found to support this.

• Susan Kimura of West Jordan, Utah provided a discovery in the Gilbert Cope Collection, LDS Film 0517034, and records of Worcester Monthly Meeting (LDS Film 0441397) regarding the Standfields. Francis Standfield married Grace Achele at Worcestershire Monthly Meeting. Her sister Mary married Francis Fincher of the City of Worcester. The descendants of Francis Standfield and Francis Fincher found in the Philadelphia and Chester County records were therefore cousins. Thomas Achelly of Burlington, New Jersey, was a relative.

• Susan Kimura provided, from the Miscellaneous Records of the Chester Co. Pa. Historical Society, Surnames “F”, LDS Film 0565685, an anonymous manuscript “Fishers of Kendall, Westmoreland & Delaware, ”which gives an interesting ancestry for John Fisher of Clitheroe. If it is correct, John Fisher was educated in law at Gray’s Inn in London, and was a class-mate there with John Hindle, brother of John Fisher’s wife Margaret. Susan discovered, on LDS Film 567014, “Notes on Immigrants to Pa. 1681-1737,” Albert C. Myers, a 1684 record from Marsden Monthly Meeting in Lancashire stating that the meeting was sending the children of John Fisher to Pennsylvania, two years after the parents and one or more older children came.

• Susan Kimura found a description of the ancient Stansfield family manor house in Stansfield, West Yorkshire, which still stands.

• A. R. (Rich) Paul of the Marple-Newtown Historical Society sent a newspaper picture and article showing an ancient log structure, about to be razed in the 1960’s, on the old Huntley tract in Marple, part of the original Francis Standfield estate.

• I have now found a record of James Standfield in the Quaker records of Cheshire. He attended a wedding at Congleton Monthly Meeting, Cheshire in early 1683, shortly before the Standfield family emigration.

• The passenger list for the “Endeavor” in 1683, listing the Standfield family, says they came from “Garton, in Cheshire.” There is no such place name in Cheshire, now or in the old place name books. I assumed this meant Gorton, in east central Manchester, since it is not far from Marple at the edge of Cheshire, where the Standfields once lived. But Gorton and Manchester were part of Lancashire and never were part of Cheshire. I now wonder if this was a mistake for Garston, near Liverpool in Lancashire, where the Standfields might have stopped briefly while waiting to depart from Liverpool. Garston happens to be the birthplace of Thomas Fisher who came to Pennsylvania with the Baker family in 1684.

• A descendant of George Rogers sent me a land map showing the location of Cephas Fisher Sr.’s land in Indiana. The map is shown in this chapter.

• My wife Janice and I traveled to Henry County, Iowa where we found land records and maps pinpointing the location of the Fisher and Vantassell farms there. A map showing the land tracts, and a photo of the 1867 homesite of Cephas Fisher, are included in this chapter.

• Noble Shaw, a first cousin, traveled to Green County, Tennessee and sent a picture of the New Hope Quaker house near Rheatown, established in 1795, where Cephas Fisher Sr. (Great Grandson of Thomas Fisher of Chester County) was married in 1803. The photos are included in this chapter.

• John Fisher, a fifth cousin, learned of my research and sent a collection of photographs of some of the Ohio descendants of Thomas Fisher of Chester County. A sample is included at the end of this chapter.
* Many more census records can now be found, thanks to the ancestry.com online images and searchable index. Even these searches must include every possible mis-reading by the census-takers and transcribers. For example, I finally discovered that Cephas Fisher Jr. was entered in the 1850 census as Stephan Fisher (Concord Township, Fayette Co. Ohio).

Errata: Ancestors and Descendants of Cephas Fisher of Henry County, Iowa

I said James Fisher and Alice Standfield were married on Saint Valentine’s day in 1736. It was the 14th of the second month, which was old style April 14, not February.

I said Florance Clinton Fisher and Grace Minette Long once lived at Junction City, Texas. I should have said Barnhart, Texas and Junction City, Arkansas.

My apologies regarding a few typos, a few incorrect words in my document transcriptions which have been pointed out to me but I won’t enumerate here, and the omission of George Rogers from the index.

Introduction and Summary of the Ancestors

Our Quaker Heritage

Our Fisher ancestors were Quakers (Society of Friends) for many generations, possibly as far back as the mid-1600’s when the movement was being spread by its English founder, George Fox. Quakerism persisted in our family through Samuel Fisher (1857-1930). Living relatives have described to us the Biblical speech and Quaker beliefs of Samuel and his father, Cephas A. Fisher Jr. Although we have learned that there are cousins in Ohio and elsewhere who are still Friends, Cephas Jr. was the last adult member in our branch, and Samuel was the last in our direct line to be raised in a Quaker family. It is in large part due to the Quaker associations that historians, genealogists, and family chroniclers have left a rich body of documentation concerning our family. The numerous meeting records which we have located are testimony to the devotion of generations of Fishers to the Quaker way of life. The work ethic and values of the Quakers are still to be seen in our family, several generations removed from the last affiliation with the Friends.

Our Lineage - A Summary

Our ancestry is provable through many generations.
Woodford Pascal Fisher (1913 -1990), whose family is contemporary to this book, was born in Alfalfa County, Oklahoma, and married Dorothy Berneice Kelly, born in 1915 at May, Oklahoma. Woodford was the son of Florance Clinton Fisher Sr. (1886 -1967), born at Jewel City, Kansas, and Grace Minett Long (1890 - 1969), born at Crawfordsville, Indiana.
Florance was the son of Samuel Fisher (1857 -1930), born in Clinton County, Indiana, near Frankfort, and Effie Van Tassel (1863 - 1912), born at Tipton, Indiana.
Samuel was the son of Cephas A. Fisher Jr. (1812 -1895), born in Clinton County, Ohio, near New Vienna, and Mary Hoskins (1822 - 1870), born in Clinton County, Ohio.
Cephas Jr. was the son of Cephas Fisher Sr. (1780 - 1863), born in York County, Pennsylvania, and Rachel Stanfield (1785 - 1840), probably born in Greene County, Tennessee.
Cephas Sr. was the son of James Fisher Jr. (1744 -1823), born at East Caln in Chester County, Pennsylvania, and Jane Atkinson (1753 - 1829), born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania.
James was the son of James Fisher Sr. (1714 - 1775), born near Kennett, in Chester County, Pennsylvania, and Alice Standfield (1713 - 1788), born near Lurgan, in the north of Ireland.
James Sr. was the son of Thomas Fisher (ca. 1690 - 1747), birthplace unknown but possibly Chichester Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania, and Elizabeth Huntley, (1692 - ca. 1762), born in Birmingham Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania.
Thomas was most probably a son of John (1665? - 1701) and Barbara Fisher who lived in Chichester Township, Chester County, Pa. in 1701.
John and his wife Barbara were very probably immigrants from England, but we know nothing of their history.

Another (lesser) possibility is that Thomas was a son of James Fisher (ca. 1669 - 1703), born in England, probably in Yorkshire or Lancashire, and Katherine --, birthplace unknown.
James was the third son of John Fisher (ca. 1643 - 1685) and Margaret Hindle, who came to Pennsylvania with all their children, from Clitheroe, Lancashire in 1682 and settled in Sussex County (now in Delaware).
John was descended from the Fishers in the north of England, and was probably born at Rotherham, Yorkshire. None of the numerous John Fishers found in the records of the northern counties of England has been positively identified as our John Fisher.
Thomas, a possible father or relative of John Fisher, was arrested in 1660 at Swarthmore, Lancashire for following his Quaker principles. He was imprisoned in Lancaster Castle.

The Migration

In order to give a general picture of the migrations of the Fisher family, the following timeline has been reconstructed from the records.

In 1682, the first Fisher came to Pennsylvania. John Fisher left Clitheroe, Lancashire, England in order to escape religious persecution as a Quaker. He brought with him his wife Margaret Hindle Fisher, his six children, and probably Margaret Hindle’s brother John. The ship may have been the “Welcome,” which brought William Penn, or the “Lamb,” or one of the other ships arriving that year. The landing may have been at Newcastle, on the banks of the Delaware River, after which some of the passengers (including the Fishers) were taken upriver to the new Philadelphia settlement. The first winter was spent in hardship (according to the sources, in a cave on the banks of the Delaware, with shelters made from ships’ sails). The family soon moved to Lewes, in Sussex County (now in Delaware) where John died in 1685.
By 1698, about 5 Fisher families had immigrated to Pennsylvania. John and Barbara Fisher lived in Chichester Township, in Chester County.
In 1713, Thomas Fisher, most probably the son of John and Barbara, married in Concord Township, Chester County, then moved a year later a short distance across the Brandywine Creek to Kennett, where all his children were born and the three oldest were married.
In 1741, Thomas moved his family to East Caln, still in Chester County.
In 1762, Thomas’s son, James, moved westward to the central Pennsylvania back country, near Harrisburg. He settled at Newberry, York County. James’ son, James Jr. married at the nearby Warrington Friends meeting house, and lived at Monahan, in the same area. Son Cephas was born there in 1778.
In 1789, at the end of the Revolutionary War, Cephas left Pennsylvania with his father’s family and a number of other Quaker families. They went briefly to Hopewell, Virginia and Westfield, North Carolina, and then to Greene County, Tennessee. Cephas married in Greene County in 1803. James and son Cephas then went with their families in 1804 to settle in Highland County, Ohio, near East Monroe. There James Jr. lived the rest of his life. Cephas lived all his adult life in the same area, not far from East Monroe, at Lees Creek, Clinton County, Ohio.
About 1851, Cephas’s son, Cephas Jr., married in Ohio and moved to Frankfort, Indiana where son Samuel was born.
In 1868, Cephas Jr. and family moved to Henry County, Iowa, where Cephas stayed until his death.
In 1880, Cephas Jr.’s son Samuel went to Jewell County, Kansas and married there. He moved back and forth between Iowa and Jewell County, Kansas, then moved from Iowa to Helena, Oklahoma by covered wagon, about 1897.
In 1907, Samuel’s son, Florance Clinton Sr. married at Enid, Oklahoma and raised his family at Haskell and Morris, Oklahoma.
In 1931, Florance’s son, Woodford Pascal Fisher Sr. married at Medicine Lodge, Kansas and lived briefly in Oklahoma, Missouri, Louisiana, and east Texas before settling in Mexia, Texas where he remained until his death in 1990.
In 1995, the children of Woodford Pascal Fisher Sr. all live in Texas; in the Dallas area, in the Houston region, and in Mexia.

I. The Early Fishers

The earliest known record of a Fisher family in England is that of Henricus Piscator (fisher), at the time of William the Conqueror. Robert le Fyscer and Margary le Fischere were in Buckshire in 1273. William the Fisher lived at Thele in 1289. There were four recorded Fishers in Yorkshire in 1379 (Ibota Fischer, Alicia Fyssher, Willelmus Fysher, and Hugo Fysscher).

John Fisher, Roman Catholic scholar and theologian, Bishop of Rochester, was beheaded by Henry VIII and is now Saint John Fisher. He came from the East Yorkshire Fishers at Beverly and is probably our relative.

Mary Fisher was a zealot Quaker who went to Barbados and arrived at Boston in 1656 aboard the “Swallow,” being the first Quaker to arrive in America. Her trunk of books was burned on Boston Commons, by order of Governor Endicott, and she was sent back to Barbados. She gained notoriety in 1660 by traveling to Adrianople, Turkey and attempting to convert Sultan Mohammed IV to Quakerism.

Another well-known English Quaker was Samuel Fisher, a Baptist minister from Kent who converted in 1655. He was arrested in London in 1658 for publishing Quaker tracts, and went to Rome in 1659 to attempt conversion of Roman Catholic cardinals and friars. He died in White Lion Prison in Southwark in 1663.

Another John Fisher, an early Quaker in Yorkshire, signed a petition to Yorkshire members of Parliament in 1678 for a more fair treatment of the Quakers. Some of the Fishers of Pennsylvania seem to be linked by associations with signers of the petition. Two signers were the brothers George and Thomas Hutchinson, who emigrated and settled in New Jersey. George Hutchinson’s daughter Mary married James Standfield of Marple, near Philadelphia, in 1689. The John Fisher from Barmstone, East Yorkshire who came to Bucks County about 1700, was a son of a John Fisher and Sarah Hutchinson of East Yorkshire.

Most of the earliest Fishers to come to Pennsylvania, including three named John, came from the northern counties of England. Even Joseph Fisher, who came from northern Ireland, was originally from Cheshire. Only one of the earliest Fishers who settled along the Delaware River (Denis, of Salem, West Jersey), is known to have come from the south of England (Portsmouth, in Hampshire).

Anyone studying the Fishers of Pennsylvania should consult the following list, which includes most, if not all the Fisher families in the area prior to 1701.

John Fisher came in 1682 with wife Margaret Hindle Fisher and children Thomas, John, James, Annie, Sarah, Rachel and Alice. They settled in Sussex County, near what is now Lewes, Delaware. We have proposed in this book that our ancestor Thomas Fisher, of Chester County, Pennsylvania, could have been the son of James, of Sussex County. (Low probability)

A John Fisher came in 1700 from Pardshaw Crag, in Cumberland, northwest England, settled in Philadelphia County, and may have had a wife named Sarah. Children are believed to be Sarah, John, Hannah, Love and Mary. Daughter Sarah married Joseph Taylor, 30th of first month 1716, recorded at Philadelphia Meeting. A Joseph Taylor who settled in Kennett Township, Chester County, adjacent to the northeast corner of Thomas Fisher’s farm may have been a relative of Joseph and Sarah (Fisher) Taylor, but no proof has been found. It is not clear if this could be the John Fisher of Springfield (the one in north Philadelphia County) who left a will in 1716 naming wife Katharine, sons John and Joseph (land in Upper Dublin Township), eldest daughter Mary Regen and youngest daughter Sarah.
A John Fisher served on a coronor’s jury in 1698 at Chester, when John Barnstill of Newcastle was blown overboard from a ferry going from Chester to Philadelphia. Other jurors were Phillip Roman, James Browne, William Clayton, Nathaniell Lamplugh, Robert Carter, John Kinsman, Thomas Varnon, James Hendrixson, William Hewes, John Hendrixs, and James Baylis. This John Fisher was a hatter who lived at Chichester with wife Barbara. He died in March 1701. (Note: Fishers Corner is between Chichester and Concord.) This is the only record of a Fisher in Chester County prior to our ancestor Thomas. He is the most probable father of Thomas. He is not mentioned in the Quaker records.
James Fisher died intestate in Philadelphia, in 1729, and left an administration which mentions a John Fisher. This James, otherwise unknown, is another possible father or namesake of our Thomas Fisher. (This is not the Sussex County James, who died in 1702/3.)
Joseph Fisher, a major “first purchaser” of 5000 acres of Penn’s land in Philadelphia, came from Stilorgan, Ireland but was “late of Elton, Cheshire.” Joseph arrived with wife Elizabeth and children Moses, Joseph, Mary and Martha on the “Lion” of Liverpool on 14 8M 1683. This may be the Joseph Fisher who left a Philadelphia will in 1714. Joseph Jr. may be the Joseph Fisher of Dublin Township, who left a Philadelphia will in 1717 naming wife Mary and daughters Isobel, Martha and Mary.
George Fisher came from Ireland as a servant to the surveyor Jasper Farmer (Captain/Major), and is presumed to be the same George Fisher who bought a “kitchen and half-lot” in Newcastle County in 1688. This may be the George Fisher who was on the Nottingham tax list for Chester County in 1729. Any descendants are unknown.
William Fisher came from Ross, in Herefordshire, in 1684. Children of William and wife Bridgett Hodgkins were William, Mary, Sarah, Samuel, and Millicent. William Jr. and wife Tabitha Janney had children William, Thomas, Elizabeth, and Millicent. Descendants have been identified in “Genealogies of Pennsylvania Families.” (See also Philadelphia wills for William Sr. (1728) and William Jr. (1734).)
A John Fisher of Barmstone, in east Yorkshire, came for a visit about 1700 and lost all his possessions to pirates as his ship prepared to depart for England. He remained in Bucks County, and had many descendants, who are well-documented. He married first Mary Hough Janney, daughter of John and Hannah Hough and widow of Jacob Janney, and had a daughter Mary. Children of second wife Elizabeth Scarborough were Robert, Sarah, John, Elizabeth, Hannah, John, Deborah, Barak, and Katherine. A conjecture by B. F. Cummings in 1898 that our ancestor Thomas Fisher was of this family, is disproven by the Hull meeting records of Yorkshire.
A Thomas Fisher came to Philadelphia aboard the “Vine” in 1684 from Walton, Lancashire as a servant to Henry Baker. Nothing more is known of him.
Francis Fisher, a mariner from Bristol, England, made many trading voyages to America in the late 1600’s and called at Philadelphia on at least one occasion.

William Fisher of Sussex County was a probable son or relative of John and Margaret Fisher, not mentioned in John’s will or the family memoirs. William owned land jointly in Sussex County with Thomas Fisher, son of the immigrant John. William and Thomas had numerous connections at Lewes and were referred to as “the two Fishers” in James Standfield’s estate settlement in 1699. In early Sussex County court records, “William Fisher” was sometimes styled “gentleman” or “Esquire,” of Philadelphia, and sometimes as “planter, Sussex County,” presumed to be William Sr. and William Jr. William “Esquire,” who had a wife Rebecca and son Elias, died in 1725. A son John probably belonged to William Jr. William does not seem to appear in any Quaker records.
Adam Fisher of Kent County was a possible relative of John and Margaret Fisher, not mentioned in John’s will or in the family records. This could be a relative of Adam Fisher who married Dorothy Cutberd at Rotherham, Yorkshire May 21, 1666. Adam’s will was probated 18 May 1725, in Kent County. Named in the will were wife Mary Molleston Fisher, sons John, Adams, Joseph, Molleston, and Isaac; and daughters Susannah (Edmonds) and Sarah (Morgan). (Not named was another apparent daughter, Mary Walker.) Witnesses were John Newell, John Sipple, and Abraham Morriss. In 1698, Thomas Fisher (son of the immigrant John Fisher) acted as attorney for Richard Williams in a land sale. Richard Williams witnessed the will of Thomas Fisher (son of the immigrant John) in 1713. Richard Williams Jr. was made a ward of Adam Fisher in 1704, with the provision that the ward be taught the house-building trade and cured of his “scald head.” In 1701, James and Hercule Coutts, trading partners of James Standfield (uncle of Elizabeth Huntley Fisher), testified in a case against John Williams concerning the death of Thomas Williams (assumed to be parent of the orphaned Richard Williams). Adam Fisher’s widow seems to have remarried, to -- Little, and died in 1748. Adam Fisher does not seem to appear in any Quaker records. At least some of the Mollestons were Episcopals.
Denis Fisher from Portsmouth, England was a ship carpenter who purchased 500 acres on Monmouth River, N. Jersey, in 1684. He died in Salem Township in 1690. His will names wife Susannah, children Henry, Elizabeth and John; grandchildren Susannah Fisher, Henry Fisher, and Elizabeth Fisher. They do not appear in the Quaker records. Records of Sussex County, Delaware include: “Susan Fisher, daughter-in-law to Robert Bedwell of Kent County, died in 8th month 1683,” and “Susannah Fisher, midwife for Norton and Rachel Claypoole, 11th month 1683.”
A William Fisher died in 1714 at Burlington, N. Jersey. His will names “cousin John of the Episcopal Church of Burlington, of which I am a member.” His will names children Edward, David, & Ann. Executor was Dr. John Roberts Esq. He may be the William who, in 1700, had purchased 225 acres in Burlington from “Peter Bose of Marcus Hook alias Chishopen, County of Chester.”
A William Fisher purchased, in 1691-94, land from George Hutchinson of Onanicken, in the “Burlington (New Jersey) Town Bounds on the Delaware River.”

II. John Fisher and Margaret Hindle

The first Fisher family to arrive in Pennsylvania came from Lancashire, in the north of England. In 1682, the Quaker John Fisher and his wife Margaret decided to move their family from Clitheroe or thereabout, to William Penn’s new province of Pennsylvania. They came in order to escape religious persecution, which had been suffered by the Quakers (including Penn) since the movement was begun by George Fox in the mid-1600’s. Although extensive study has not provided proof of our genealogical connection, there seems to be a relationship between our Pennsylvania ancestors and the Lancashire Fishers. The family of John and Margaret Fisher is of interest to us due to their association with the Standfield in-laws of our ancestors, discovered in the research for this book.

The Fishers were among the original purchasers of proprietary land from William Penn. They came in 1682, in the first wave of ships which brought Quakers to settle in and around the new city of Philadelphia. John Fisher was a glazier (and possibly ship-builder) from Clitheroe, Lancashire, England. Old land surveys show two of John Fisher’s town lots in the city of Philadelphia. John served on a Philadelphia jury in 1683 (which unfortunately convicted Margaret Matson as a witch). He appears in the Quaker records of Philadelphia. But he had some sort of falling-out with the Philadelphia Quakers, and soon moved about a hundred miles southward, to his land grant in Sussex County which he had obtained from William Penn in 1682. The estates were called “Fisher’s Island” (actually a marshy area on the mainland). The Fishers were located on the south side of the mouth of Broad Creek, on the Atlantic coast. The family later had additional holdings in Kent County.

Six children of John and Margaret Fisher are mentioned in John’s will, probated at Georgetown, Sussex County, in 1685. All the children were born in England, and were at or near adulthood when the family arrived. John Fisher’s will names eldest son Thomas and other sons John and James; daughters Rachell, Sarah, Allis (youngest) and Annie Adkins (wife of Samuel). The will also mentions Thomas Scott. Executors were son Thomas and wife Margaret. Witnesses were William Emmott, Richard Coore and Anna Dougdull. Thomas was probably close to age 30 when he married Margery Maud in 1692. He could have been previously married, but this has never been suggested. Known children of Thomas are Jabez, Joshua, James, Margaret, Elizabeth, Margery and Esther. John married Elizabeth --; their known children are John, James, William, and Ann. James had a wife Katherine and daughter Sarah, and probably had other heirs. Of the immigrant daughters, we know that Ann (Annie) married Samuel Adkins, a glover of Philadelphia who became active in arranging ships for whalers. We know nothing of the other daughters, except that they “died young.”

Margaret’s brother John Hindle may have come over with the Fishers. Thomas Fisher, son of John and Margaret, mentions in his will of 1713 some land which had been left to him by his “Uncle John Hindle, son of Bryan Hindle of Clitheroe.” The Hindle land may have been on the south side of the mouth of Mispillion Creek at Milford, since Hindle plats can be seen there in the nineteenth-century Beers Atlas of Delaware.

There are many references discussing John Fisher’s immigration from Lancashire and some of his descendants, the most informative being “New World Immigrants,” Edited by Michael Tepper, Volume 1, Baltimore, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc. 1979 (reprints from early articles); “An Account of the Fisher and Logan Families,” by William Logan Fisher, Wakefield 1839); “Genealogy of the Fisher Family, 1682 to 1896,” by Anna Wharton Smith, Philadelphia (1896), and “Passengers and Ships Prior to 1684,” by Walter Lee Sheppard, Genealogical Publishing Company, Baltimore (1970).

There is a question in the references as to whether John Fisher and family arrived on the same ship (the “Welcome”) with William Penn, or if he was instead on one of the other ships that arrived the same year carrying religious dissenters of various sects. The passenger list for the “Welcome” in 1682 was lost, but a reconstructed list was compiled by Edward Armstrong in 1851 which included the Fishers. The reconstructed list can be found in “New World Immigrants.” Both William Logan Fisher and Anna Wharton Smith say that John Fisher came with Penn. Marion Balderston (“New World Immigrants”) argues that the ship would not have been large enough for the 97 passengers listed, and that Lancashire residents would have left from Liverpool and not from the Port of London as did the “Welcome.” In any case, John Fisher’s family were closely associated with William Penn and Penn’s sons in the administration of the Pennsylvania Colony. John’s son Thomas was a member of the Assembly at Newcastle in 1704, and was agent for the Proprietary in Sussex County.

Clitheroe is an ancient borough in Lancashire, England, situated on the end of Pendle Hill with an overlooking castle. The founder of the Quaker movement, George Fox, said that he was inspired with the idea which became Quakerism, while gazing upon Pendle Hill. Also, this was the site of notorious witch trials in the early 1600’s. But by the time of John Fisher’s departure from Clitheroe, the trials were long ended and the reason for leaving was the religious persecution of the Quakers. The witch trial era is well described in “Lancashire Witch Country, In and Around Pendle Hill” by W. R. Mitchell, Dalesman Publishing Co. Ltd. Clapham, Yorkshire (1974).

III. James and Katharine Fisher

James Fisher, a Quaker, was the third and youngest son of John Fisher and Margaret Hindle, who came to Philadelphia from Lancashire in 1682. This study of his history (apparently the first ever done) was compiled during the search for the father of our ancestor, Thomas Fisher of Chester County. It is included here even though the probability of Thomas being the son of James does not seem high (check for later editions of this book for possible clarification).

James Fisher was born in the north of England about 1670, possibly near Rotherham in Yorkshire. He may have lived at Bolton, Swarthmore or Clitheroe, in Lancashire before the immigration to Pennsylvania. The Fishers lived first in Philadelphia, then moved after a short time to Sussex County, near Lewes (now in Delaware). James was mentioned in the will of his father in 1685, and appears on the 1693 Sussex County tax list, along with his brothers Thomas and John Jr. Many years later, memoirs of Joshua Fisher (son of Thomas and grandson of the immigrant John Fisher) included only a statement that James “died young.” By that time, James had been all but forgotten by that branch of the family. Even sister Annie’s marriage to Samuel Adkins had been forgotten. Thomas, John and James, sons of the immigrant John, were all old enough to be the father of our ancestor Thomas Fisher of Chester County (contrary to some of the sources). James seems to be the most likely.

James Fisher married Katherine -- , about 1690. The marriage would have been a Quaker ceremony in the home of one of the Lewes Quakers, but unfortunately no Quaker records of that group have survived.

Due to the extreme remoteness of “Fisher’s Island,” there were few settlers in the area. The Lewes Quaker group, which met at Broadkill (Cool Spring), had limited interaction with other Pennsylvania meetings at the time. Thomas Fisher, son of the immigrant John, was a meeting overseer. The group was apparently not motivated to follow the strict discipline of record-keeping which was normally expected of Quakers. In 1712, Duck Creek meeting asked if the meeting at Lewes was settled by order of any quarterly meeting, and sent an inquiry to Thomas Fisher. It was determined that the Lewes meeting was not being kept up. Thomas and his brother-in-law Cornelius Wiltebank (husband of Jane Maud), proposed that the Lewes Quakers join Duck Creek. But another inquiry, in the following year, demanded a reason for discontinuance of the Lewes meetings. There are no surviving records of the Lewes (Motherkiln or Cold/Cool Spring) meeting prior to 1742.

James is mentioned several times in the court records of Sussex County, beginning in 1696 and ending in 1703.

In June of 1696, James Fisher was summoned to serve on a Petty Jury but was struck from the list, probably because one of the cases involved Elisabeth Wynne, stepmother of Thomas Fisher’s wife Margery (Maud).

On August 27, 1697, the town of Lewes was plundered by French pirates, and a public subscription had to be mounted the following year to help in the “Relief and Assistance” of the townspeople. The Fishers would almost certainly have suffered losses to the pirates.

In the fall of 1698, James served on a Grand Jury at Lewes. In the same sessions he brought suit against William Orr, Administrator of John Jennins, deceased, in an attempt to gain payment for “L3:4s in Good merchantable Indian Corne Or Pork Due by note under the said John Jennins hand bearing date the 26th January 1697.”

In 1699, James was co-purchaser, with Jacob Waring, of “A certain Plantation And Tract of Land and Marsh quantity One hundred Acres scituate, Lying and being On the South side of the Broad Creek in This County and West side of a Creek Called Cornelius Johnsons Creek According to Law and Contents of A deed of sale for the Same of date the 6th of February 1699.”

Also in 1699, Thomas Fisher was foreman of a Grand Jury which appointed Thomas’s brother James as an “Overseer of The Highwayes & bridges for the Town and Broad Kill Dividend.”

In February of 1702, James recorded a deed from William Clark for 100 acres on Broad Creek, which must have been an addition to the 100 acres he had purchased three years earlier.

In September of 1702, James Fisher and land co-owner Jacob Waring filed an agreement that no advantage would be given to the heirs of the survivor if one of them died while they still owned the land. The land is described as “a Certain Tract or Tracts of Land & Marsh Scituate Lyeing and being in Part of the Neck in Sussex County, annexed to Pennsylvania, and Called The Point, Containing One hundred Acres of Land & Marsh, with the Plantation Thereto belonging by us, Jacob Warring and James Fisher, both of Sussex County AforeSd.” The signature of James Fisher on this document attests to his literacy. James was undoubtedly already ill and died, intestate, a few months later.

We learn of James Fisher’s death, when he was not much over age 30, in an action whereby Thomas and John, brothers of James, describe the terms and disposition of their father’s will. This record, on LDS microfilm 006625, is handwritten and is difficult to locate due to a lack of page numbers and poor quality of the documents. The record has been previously overlooked, except for abstracts which omit some important information. Since this is the nearest thing to a will which exists for James Fisher, a complete transcription is included here. The record identifies Sarah Fisher as the only daughter of James; James as youngest son of John; intestate passing of James; and widow’s rights of Margaret Fisher and Catherine Fisher. No reference to (or denial of) any son of James Fisher is made. Of the seven hundred acres due to James from his father’s will, only 500 are assigned here to the daughter Sarah. Wife Catherine gets only the widow’s rights in her lifetime. The remaining 200 acres of the legacy, together with the other tracts purchased by James, seem to have gone to another heir. A deed search at Gergetown might reveal whether an heir of James was our ancestor, Thomas Fisher of Chester County.

IV. Thomas Fisher and Elizabeth Huntley

Thomas Fisher, our earliest fully-proven ancestor, was a lifelong devout Quaker, born about 1690, who lived in Chester County, Pennsylvania all his adult life. In the years preceding his coming of age, he lived in a household not bearing the Fisher name, in or near the Township of Concord. His mother may have been remarried, or he may have been with relatives or family friends. He was a member of Concord Meeting when he married Elizabeth Huntley in 1713, and was the first Fisher to be mentioned in the records of any Friends meeting in Chester County.

Thomas Fisher is most probably the son of John Fisher and wife Barbara, of Chichester Township. This John Fisher was a hatter who was in the area as early as 1685, when he was in a court case with John Calvert at Chester. In 1698, he served on a coronor’s jury in Chester. The jury investigated the drowning of John Barnstill of Newcastle, who was blown overboard from a ferry going from Chester to Philadelphia. Other jurors were Phillip Roman, James Browne, William Clayton, Nathaniel(l) Lampleigh (Lamplugh), Robert Carter, John Kinsman, Thomas Varnon, James Hendrixson, William Hewes, John Hendrixs, and James Baylis. Most of these jurors were Quakers. At least one, Nathaniel Lampleigh came from Barbados. John Fisher died intestate in Chichester Township in 1701. His widow, Barbara Fisher, was named administrator of his estate on March 10, 1701. An abstract of the record is listed among Philadelphia administrations in “Book A,” but the record cannot be found at Philadelphia city hall. John and Barbara Fisher were the only Fishers in Chester County prior to Thomas. They were apparently the right age to be his parents, and lived in the jurisdiction of Concord Monthly Meeting, where Thomas was married. Who were the parents of this John Fisher? Denis Fisher (a ship’s carpenter from Portsmouth, England) and wife Susannah who lived at Salem (across the river in New Jersey), had a son John of the right age, and seem to be the best candidates. They apparently were related to the Fishers of Sussex County. In 1683, Susannah was a midwife at the birth of Robert Claypoole in Sussex County, where John and Margaret Fisher from Lancashire had settled. William Fisher (Esquire) of Sussex County, joint owner of land with Thomas Fisher (son of John and Margaret) was a “cousin to Henry Fisher,” assumed to be Henry, a known son of Denis Fisher.

A corner of Upper Chichester Township lies only half a mile from the Concord boundary, and half a mile from “Fisher’s Corner” in Aston. Chichester also includes Marcus Hook, where Peter Boss was living in 1700 when he sold land in Burlington (New Jersey) town bounds to William Fisher of Burlington. (Peter Boss Jr. witnessed the will of Elizabeth Huntley’s uncle, James Standfield, in 1699. The Standfields were once associated with the “Christian Quaker” separation of George Keith which had involved a sensational heresy trial including Peter Boss Senior.) Elizabeth Huntley’s father (William) and uncle (James Standfield) once had a partnership with Caleb Pusey of Upland. Francis Chads, another uncle of Elizabeth, lived at Chichester at that time.

Note: If John and Barbara Fisher were Quakers, they would have belonged to Chichester Monthly Meeting, which was originally set up to serve the early Quakers of Marcus Hook and Upland (as Chester Monthly Meeting). Later, Chichester became part of Concord Monthly Meeting, whose members alternated their meetings between the Chichester and Concord meeting houses. No meeting records mentioning John and Barbara have been found. Although “Barbara” was not a common name of the time, there are two records of Quaker women of that name.

Barbara Baguley, who married Henry Janney, was the mother-in-law of William Fisher Jr. of Philadelphia, who came with his father in 1684 from Ross, in Herfordshire. There is a also a Quaker account of “The Travels, Sufferings and Persecutions of Barbara Blaugdone (1609?-1704),” in the Swarthmore Friends Library.

If John and Barbara were parents of Thomas Fisher, there is the question of why Thomas did not name any of his known children either John or Barbara. (Several children, names unknown, apparently did die in childhood.) The death of John Fisher, of Chichester, occurred at about the time our Thomas Fisher would have been ready to begin his Quaker schooling, at the customary age of 12. This interruption could be the reason Thomas missed his education and always signed with a mark (X).

Thomas Fisher married Elizabeth Huntley March 16, 1713, at the Concord meeting house, Chester County, Pennsylvania. Her parents were William Huntley and Mary Standfield, who were married in 1692 at Concord. Elizabeth was born in 1692, the eldest of five William Huntley children.

Note: This Thomas Fisher has often been confused with Thomas, son of the immigrant John Fisher of Sussex County who came in 1682. Thomas Fisher of Sussex County, who was some 20 years older than our Thomas, filed a will in 1713. No probate record exists, but court records show all his appointed duties ending abruptly in November of 1713. His widow (Margery Maud Fisher) remained in Sussex County and married Nicholas Green prior to 1717. Nicholas Green may have been the son of Thomas and Margaret Green, of Concord Township in Chester County. The many efforts to discover the origins of our own Thomas Fisher ancestor (of Chester County) might have fared better but for the coincidence of these names. There is a possibility that the two Thomas Fishers were related, but research so far does not support the idea. Thomas Fisher of Chester County, our ancestor, could have been a son of James and Katherine Fisher, of Sussex County, Province of Pennsylvania (now part of Delaware). James was the third son of the immigrant John Fisher, and brother to Thomas and John Fisher Jr. of Sussex County. Only one child of James and Katharine, Sarah, has been identified in record searches to date.

The possibility of our relationship to the Sussex County Fishers is based solely upon circumstantial indications. Firstly, the Standfield in- laws of our Thomas Fisher had many connections with the Sussex County Fishers. Secondly, the best Fisher namesake candidate for James, an older son of our ancestor Thomas Fisher, seems to be James Fisher of Sussex County. In the settlement of the 1699 will of Elizabeth (Huntley) Fisher’s uncle, James Standfield, there is an expense for a 7-day trip “to Broadkiln (Sussex County) to meet the Fishers to settle with them.”

Thomas and Elizabeth moved a short distance, to the west side of Brandywine Creek, soon after their marriage. They transferred their Quaker membership from Concord to the Kennett meeting in 1714. All their children must have been born at Kennett, but the Fishers do not appear in the meeting minutes between 1714 and 1728. At Kennett, the Fishers were surrounded by Elizabeth’s relatives. Her sisters Deborah, Mary and Sarah Huntley all married at Kennett, and her only brother, Frances Huntley, died there, unmarried, in 1723. Four of Elizabeth’s Standfield relatives lived within a few miles of the Fisher farm. Elizabeth (Standfield) Hope lived at Kennett; Hannah (Standfield) Few and the Few cousins lived adjacent to the Fisher farm; cousin John Chads lived a few miles to the east, at the Brandywine ford in Birmingham Township, and Sarah (Standfield) Bennett lived in Thornbury Township, just east of Birmingham.

The minor Huntley children were supposed to go to Thomas and Elizabeth Hope and Edward and Sarah Bennett when William Huntley died in 1708, but unfortunately Thomas Hope also died
only a few weeks after William Huntley. We do not know if the aunts were able to take them all. The young Thomas and Elizabeth may have had to start their married life with responsibility for one or more of the Huntley siblings. The widow Elizabeth (Standfield) Hope married William Horne in 1709 and also lived at Kennett.

Children mentioned in Thomas Fisher’s will were William, James, Elizabeth, Samuel, Thomas, Francis and Mary.

1. William, b. 8 May 1714, mar. Deborah Roberts, 24 Oct 1739, at Kennett; d. 30 Mar. 1748 at Kennett.
2. James, b. [1715], mar. Alice Standfield of Lurgan, N. Ireland, 14 Feb 1736 at Kennett.
3. Elizabeth, b. [1716], mar. Joseph Wilkinson of Ballynachree, N. Ireland, 31 Oct 1740 at Kennett.
-- (multi-year gap) --
4. Samuel, b. [1729], mar. Ann Lamborn, 21 Nov 1749 at New Garden.
5. Thomas, b. [1731], mar. Elizabeth Lamborn, 26 Oct 1752 at New Garden.
6. Francis, b. [1732], mar. Rachel Wickersham, 16 Nov 1753 at New Garden.
7. Mary, b. [1734], mar. Abel Johns, 8 Oct 1755 at Uwchlan.

Susannah Fisher, who was at the weddings of the two oldest, was probably another of the older children, born about 1717. She seems to have died before 1740. Her name is of interest, since it suggests an aunt of that name. Samuel Atkins and his wife Annie (Susannah?) Fisher are possible namesakes of two of the children. A more likely namesake for Susannah might be Susannah, granddaughter of Denis Fisher (of Salem, New Jersey), possible sister of Thomas Fisher.

The years from 1714 to 1728 were busy ones for the Fishers. The heavily forested land had to be cleared and broken for planting, the house and barns were built, and children arrived. Elizabeth suffered the loss of her only brother, Francis, in 1723. The Kennett Friends meeting had to be faithfully supported, and Thomas would have been called upon to help when the Kennett meeting house was remodeled in 1719. Elizabeth did find time to visit her home meeting of Concord in 1716 to attend the wedding of Samuel Painter and Elizabeth Buxcey, and Thomas accepted a civil appointment in 1725, as overseer of the poor in Kennett Township. The last Huntley sister was married off in 1727. The Fishers managed to avoid any controversy or transgression that would have brought them mention in the meeting records of this period. Most of the Fisher birth records are missing, but there is a record of the oldest son William’s 1714 birth date, which was entered years later, after his death. Thomas Fisher’s tax rates for Kennett Township have been found for many of the years from 1715 until he moved to East Caln in 1742. (Colonial tax records for Chester County after 1740 are lost.)

Thomas Fisher was also on the tax list for Haverford Township in 1732 (2S6d). The reason for this is unknown.

Several small children of Thomas and Elizabeth must have died about 1727. There is a long gap in the apparent ages of the children, based upon the marriage dates. One would expect the grandparents and parents to be honored with the first four children’s births. A child named for Thomas Fisher’s mother may have been one of those that died, as well as early children named Thomas and Mary, whose names were used again later. Unfortunately, the Kennett birth records for most of Thomas Fisher’s children are missing.

When Thomas and Elizabeth settled at Kennett in 1714, they apparently took possession of the 200 acres of public land which had been surveyed for William Huntley in 1703, but never filed for, in what is now the Parkersville rural community in Pennsbury, a short distance north of the old Kennett Meeting House. The land was bounded on the west by the Zarobabel Thatcher land, on the south by William Webb, on the East by the Harlan family, and on the north by the Parker, Few, Joseph Taylor, and Harlan families. James and Daniel Few were cousins of Elizabeth, as were the Bennetts who lived nearby. A view of what may be the homesite can be found at the present intersection of Street Road and Graychalk Road. Deeds for the land were signed by both Thomas and Elizabeth by their marks, showing that neither were educated.

There is a possibility that the Taylor neighbors were relatives of Thomas Fisher. Philadelphia Monthly Meeting records show the marriage of Joseph Taylor to Sarah Fisher, daughter of John, 30th of 1st month 1716. Sarah was a daughter of the John Fisher who came in 1700 from Pardshaw Crag meeting in Cumberland, northwest England, and settled in Philadelphia County. John’s wife is believed to have been named Sarah. Children appearing in the Quaker records were Sarah, John (m. Mary Hodge 1728), Hannah (d. 1714), Love (d. 1706), and Mary (d. 1724). A Joseph Taylor (son of Joseph?) was a near neighbor of Thomas and Elizabeth Fisher in Kennett, his farm being adjacent at the northeast part of the Fisher farm. Accounts were due to Joseph Taylor, mentioned in his estate settlement of 1740, from James Fisher (1 shilling threepence) and Thomas Fisher (1 shilling). If this Joseph was a relative of Sarah Fisher Taylor, a connection of some sort might be implied with John Fisher of Pardshaw. However, a preliminary study of the Taylors has not borne this out. No Fisher connections have been discovered in the area during or prior to Thomas Fisher’s residency.

In 1735 Thomas bought 15 acres on the northern boundary of his land from Ruth Harlan, probably to gain access to the creek near Street Road and Parkersville Road. Thomas was on the Kennett tax lists beginning in 1715, and finally obtained a Patent from the Penn brothers for the public land in 1739, for “two English Shillings per year quitrent.” Thomas farmed the land with his two oldest sons, William and James, until 1740. After marrying in 1736, James farmed the lower 81 acres of the patent. After William married in 1739, he farmed the upper 119 acres of the patent. In 1740 all the land was indentured to the oldest son William, but Thomas sold the lower part in 1740 to William Webb for 140 pounds, and all the Fishers except William moved 20 miles northward to East Caln. The Quaker meeting records are silent concerning the Fishers from 1714 until 1728. From 1728 onward, the meeting records of Kennett and Caln (Bradford Monthly Meeting) are filled with references to Thomas and Elizabeth and their family.

In June of 1728, Thomas Fisher and his wife’s cousin James Few were chastised by Kennett meeting, apparently for threatening to bring suit against each other in a civil court. This almost certainly would have concerned the boundaries of the Fisher and Few lands which adjoined at the northeast part of the Fisher claim. After months of persuasion by the Quakers, Thomas read a statement to the congregation, which was accepted as giving satisfaction.

“1728 4th of 11th Mo. At our Monthly Meeting of Newark held at Center. The ffrnd appointed to read the Testimony given into Last meeting by Tho: ffisher report he hath done it which here under followeth.”

“To the Monthly Meeting of Newark held at Kennett ye 7th of ye 11th moth 1728. Inasmuch as I have been guilty of fetching a warent for one in Communion with me Contrary to the good order Established amongst us for which disorderly act I am sorrey and gives this as a testimony against the same as witness my hand. Thomas ffisher.”

In 1740, Joseph Wilkinson, from an Irish family at Caln, a few miles north of Kennett, came to Kennett to marry Elizabeth Jr., the oldest daughter. Joseph and Elizabeth went to Caln to live. The following year, second son James and wife Alice also moved to Caln. In 1742, Thomas and
Elizabeth followed, with their three younger children. The oldest son, William, stayed on the farm in Kennett. The teen-aged son Samuel stayed on with William and worked on the Kennett farm another season before joining the family in Caln. The Fishers settled in East Caln, at the site of the present village of Fisherville, near Coatesville. They were members of Bradford
Monthly Meeting, which met alternately at the Caln meeting house (near Coatesville) and Bradford meeting house (near Marshallton). Thomas Sr. became a leader at Caln and was named overseer of Caln Meeting. After he died, his widow Elizabeth became overseer. Later, Thomas Jr. was overseer.

Thomas Fisher and his sons became very successful farmers, and must have controlled almost 700 acres of land in the 1740’s. In addition to the original land at Kennett, records show warrants for 200 acres to William in 1742, and 200 acres to James in 1743. Thomas and wife Elizabeth owned 250 acres of land when he died April 3, 1747. His will was proved August 27, 1747, and is filed in Will Book B. Page 228, Chester County, Pennsylvania. Thomas gave his third son, Samuel (the oldest unmarried son), 150 acres of land, 100 acres to the fourth son, Thomas Jr., and smaller bequests to the other children. Caln Meeting records contain a plea to settle a claim by the heirs of Samuel Pyle, deceased, against the estate of Thomas Fisher. The Quakers ruled that “the debt shall be paid,” which it was.

In 1748, the widower John Cope proposed marriage to the widow Elizabeth Fisher. Considerable hesitation followed, with delays attributed to various indispositions and floods. Elizabeth eventually consented, and may have had some regrets. She gained a stepson, who immediately disgraced himself with a woman.

Elizabeth Jr.’s in-laws, the Wilkinsons, also proved to be somewhat of an embarrassment to the family. Joseph and his brother Evan both had a history of bad debts. Evan was the worst, with repeated bad debts and disorderly conduct.

The “good order” of the Quakers seems to have been more difficult to maintain during these years at Caln. Even Thomas Fisher Jr. was disciplined for drinking to excess on one occasion, and was questioned about debts on another. The records are filled with incidents (concerning
other members) such as drinking too much, running a tavern, “shooting on the first day of the week,” joining a military training association, hiring a hand to plow while driving a team for the
military, paying taxes (commonly done but contrary to the old discipline), and abusive language. There is also an entry concerning a document to be read at the meeting concerning how to cope with drowsiness. It was not easy being a Quaker.

Thomas Jr., Francis and Samuel all went briefly to New Garden Monthly Meeting to marry, but settled in East Caln. Francis moved back to New Garden in 1761 with his wife and three children. James and wife Alice, with five children, moved west of the Susquehanna in 1762, to Newberry township, just southwest of Harrisburg in York County, where they joined the Warrington Meeting. The youngest daughter, Mary, married at Uwchlan.

Mary Standfield, mother of Elizabeth Huntley Fisher, was the daughter of Francis and Grace Standfield. Francis Standfield, a Quaker, was a “husbandman” (farmer) who brought his family to Pennsylvania from Cheshire, England in 1683. Francis had been subjected to religious persecution in England, and was arrested in 1670 for attending a meeting at Carthorpe (Cartop). The Standfields arrived at Philadelphia July 29, 1683, aboard the ketch “Endeavor” of Liverpool, George Thorpe, Master. The Endeavor was one of the ships that brought many of the original Quaker settlers to the Pennsylvania Province beginning in 1682. William Penn made at least one voyage on the Endeavor, when he returned to England in 1684. Francis and his wife, Grace, brought with them five children, James, Mary, Sarah, Elizabeth, Grace and Hannah; and eight
servants, Daniel Browne, Thomas Massey (Marsey), Isa. Brookesby, Robert Sidbotham, John Smith, Robert Bryan, William Rudway and Thomas Sidbotham. A sixth child, Deborah, seems to have been born after the arrival in Pennsylvania.

The Standfields were among the earliest settlers of the township of Marple, just west of Philadelphia between Darby Creek and Crum Creek. Francis and son James had numerous land holdings and were active in the community. Francis was an assemblyman for Chester County in 1685, and son James gained wealth and prominance until his untimely death in the 1699 yellow fever epidemic. Grace died in 1691 and Francis followed a year later. They had emigrated from Gorton, Cheshire, in the Manchester area, but had lived at Marthill and Marple, Cheshire, and Carthorpe (Cartop), Yorkshire. Francis was probably from the Yorkshire Stansfield family, who were early Quakers in and around Halifax Parish, in the West Riding of Yorkshire.

The many ties between the Standfields and the Fishers of Sussex County provide the strongest indication that our Thomas Fisher of Chester County may have been related to the family of the immigrant John Fisher. The Standfield (Stansfield) family seat in Halifax Parish, West Yorkshire, was only a few miles from Clitheroe in Lancashire, where the Fishers and Hindles lived before their emigration. The Standfields brought a crate of window glass when they came, which would have been needed by the glazier John Fisher. The Standfields had an active trading company, in which the Fishers of Sussex and Kent County had major dealings.

When James Standfield, son of Francis, died in 1699, a bond of 150 pounds (a very large amount for the time) was due from William and Thomas Fisher of Sussex County. The ship-building supplies and artisans mentioned in the John Fisher family tradition could have been associated with the two-masted ship, the brigantine “Betsy,” owned by the trading company. James Standfield owned a large tract of land next to the Fishers in Sussex County, where a “carpenter’s shipyard” was located.

When the Standfield estates and trading company were liquidated in 1699, one of the assets was a part interest in the house of Samuel Atkins, son-in-law to the immigrant John Fisher. This was probably the house and lot in Philadelphia which had been deeded to Samuel by John Fisher in 1683, possibly on the occasion of Samuel’s marriage to Annie Fisher. Samuel Atkins took James Standfield as an apprentice to learn the shipping trade, and bought land on or near the original Standfield estate in Marple. Samuel divided his time between Sussex County and Philadelphia, and arranged leases of whaling vessels for companies such as that of John McGiver. James Standfield and Samuel Atkins had houses and property near one another on the Philadelphia waterfront. Samuel’s business sometimes took him on return trips to England. In 1699, Samuel Atkins sold his land in Marple to John Worral, who was the Standfield’s neighbor to the north, where the present-day “Worral Estates” are located.

Samuel Atkins may have died at the same time as James Standfield, since no records of Samuel can be found after 1699. Both apparently succumbed to the yellow fever epidemic of 1699. In the James Standfield estate settlement, there is a payment to the “surgeon in Samuel Atkins’ house.” For further details concerning the Standfields, see “The Francis Standfield Family of Colonial Pennsylvania” by this author, and “Marple Township, the First 100 Years.”

William Huntley, father of Elizabeth Huntley Fisher, was probably the William Huntley who was born in 1661, the son of William Huntley and Elizabeth Cowe of St. Philips, Barbados. He came to Pennsylvania prior to 1691, and lived in Birmingham Township, near the present Chadds Ford village on the Brandywine. William belonged to the Birmingham Friends Meeting, and went before the Concord Monthly Meeting in 1692 to propose marriage to Mary Standfield. Shortly after the marriage, Mary’s father, Francis Standfield died and left William a 25-acre tract from the Standfield estate in Marple, at the intersection of the present Sproul Road and Lawrence Road. William also had a tract in Falls Township, Bucks County which appears in the tax list for 1693.

Just across the Marple Road from the Huntley land was the estate of Ebeneazor Longshaw (Longford, Langford), who had come from Barbados, perhaps bringing William Huntley at the same time. The Standfields later bought out all the Longshaw estate. In 1696, William Huntley temporarily took in the “orphan of Thomas Longshaw” as an indentured servant, while the court awaited the arrival of an unnamed immigrant who was to take the orphan in service. A possibility is suggested that the Longshaws could have been relatives of Thomas Fisher’s mother, or of the Huntleys or Standfields.

Thomas Longshaw owned land in Wilmington, in the constabulary of Newcastle Town, on the north side of Christina Creek, as early as 1685. James Standfield, uncle of Elizabeth Huntley Fisher, also owned land at the same location, along with his friends and trading associates including John Collet, Thomas Pierson (surveyor), James Read, and the merchant brothers James and Hercules Coutts. Thomas Green, whose (supposed) son Nicholas would marry the widow of the Sussex County Thomas Fisher (son of the immigrant John and brother of James), also had property at the same place.

In 1700, William Huntley sold his land in Marple to Peter Worrall, and returned to Birmingham with his family. William obtained a survey in 1703 for 200 acres in Chester County, described in the “History of Chester County” as being in the part of Kennett that is now Pennsbury, near the Brandywine. That description sounds much like the land settled by Thomas Fisher in 1714, for which he requested and received a proprietary grant in 1739. The Huntleys sold their Birmingham house and plantation in 1705, and moved a few miles to the west, across the Brandywine, to Kennett Township.

The Huntleys had five children, Elizabeth, Francis, Deborah, Mary and Sarah.

1. Elizabeth, m. first Thomas Fisher, 1713. She married 2nd, John Cope, 1748.
2. Francis, d. June 1723, no known marriage.
3. Deborah, m. James Bruce, 1720. She married 2nd, Thomas Thornbury (Thornbrough), 1744 at Swede’s Church, Wilmington.
4. Mary, m. Peter Whitaker, 1724.
5. Sarah, m. John Stanton, 1727. (Married out of meeting, by a magistrate. John Stanton later became a Quaker.)

William Huntley died at Kennett in 1708, stipulating in his will that his minor children be sent to his wife’s married sisters in Thornbury and Birmingham. The widow Mary returned briefly to Marple and then to Birmingham in 1709, where she and daughter Elizabeth were members of Concord meeting until Thomas Fisher married Elizabeth there in 1713. Elizabeth’s mother, the widow Mary Standfield Huntley, remarried in the fall of 1713, to Richard Fletcher and lived at least until 1736, when she attended the wedding of son James.

The Francis Standfield estate house, a two-story log structure, still stands in 1995 and has been restored by covering the logs. It is a private residence, located on Crum Creek Road near Marple Road, in the village of Marple, Chester County, Pennsylvania. A brick house on McClarie Street nearby is also believed to be a Standfield house.

Thomas Fisher settled here in 1714. This spot is at the northern end of his 225 acres. The homesite was probably the 15-acre tract in the top photo, looking east. The bottom photo, looking south, shows the farmland, 199 and a half acres which Thomas claimed from public lands. He obtained a deed for it in 1735 from the sons of William Penn.

Thomas Fisher's Final Home Near Coatesville, Pennsylvania, Fisherville Community.
The Fishers lived in East Caln, west of this Friends Meeting House, from 1741 until Thomas died in 1747. Thomas is buried in the cemetery on the grounds of this meeting house. Thomas, his wife Elizabeth Huntley Fisher, and son Thomas Jr. all served as overseers of the Caln meeting. The surrounding community is now called Fisherville, undoubtedly due to its settlement by our ancestors.

The house is believed to include parts of the original structure. Francis was the maternal grandfather of Elizabeth Huntley Fisher, who married Thomas Fisher about fifteen miles soushwest of this house, in 1713. The house is near Paxton Hollow Road and Sproul Road, on McClarie Street. Lower Picture: This house, also on the original land grant from William Penn, is believed by some to be the Francis Standfield house. This is a log structure. The house has been extensively restored but the logs remain under the plaster. The house is on Crum Creek Road, near Sproul Road.

John Chads was a cousin of Elizabeth Huntley Fisher, wife of Thomas Fisher. The Fishers lived a few miles northwest of this house. They would have been frequent visitors, and would have used the Chads’ ferry to cross the Brandywine River. The Chad family still lived here during the Revolutionary War, when the Battle of Brandywine was fought nearby. The kitchen has a walk-in fireplace with a brick-lined beehive oven at the back, which protrudes outside the house like a small igloo.

Birmingham Township, Near Dillworthtown.
When Thomas Fisher and Elizabeth Huntley announced their intention to marry in early 1713, William Brinton was one of those appointed by the Concord Quakers to look into the suitability of the marriage. Thomas and Elizabeth were probably frequent visitors to this house during the first year of their marriage, when they were living with nearby relatives. The following year they settled in Kennett Township, a few miles to the west of this house. The Brinton house has been restored to its 1704 condition. The stonework and the interior walls, fireplaces, and cellar are all original.

V. James Fisher Sr. and Alice Standfield

James Fisher Sr. was a Quaker, born December 13, 1714 at Kennett, in Chester County, Pennsylvania, a son of Thomas Fisher and Elizabeth Huntley. James Sr. married Alice Standfield, born 1713, of Kennett monthly meeting, Pennsylvania, on Valentine’s day in 1736. Alice was the daughter of Samuel Standfield and Jane Andrews, who were Quakers belonging to the Lurgan Monthly Meeting in Lisburn County, Antrim, Ireland.

Samuel Standfield, a Quaker born about 1690, was a possible son of John Stansfield, born about 1665, of Shore, West Yorkshire. Samuel was in Ireland by 1711, where he married Jane Andrew near Lurgan, County Armagh, at the southern end of Lake Neagh near Belfast. Jane was probably a daughter of William Andrew Sr. of Lurgan. Samuel, Jane, and the Andrew family were members of the Lurgan Friends Monthly Meeting. On “3 Mo. 7 1729,” Samuel and Jane requested a certificate to remove to Pennsylvania and were received at Nottingham, Chester County, early in 1730. They were accompanied by Jane’s brother William Jr. Jane Andrew was probably the daughter of William Andrew Sr. of Lurgan, County Armagh, Ireland. William Andrew Jr., of Lurgan, may have emigrated with Samuel and Jane. When John, son of Samuel and Jane, married Hannah Dixon at Kennett in 1742, William Andrews was one of the family in attendance. William Andrew Jr. had married Miriam Bullock of Lurgan meeting at Lurgan, County Armagh in 1717. George, son of William and Miriam, was born 1719 at Lurgan. In New Jersey, possible relatives are Samuel and Peter Andrews of Burlington monthly meeting.

Upon arrival in Pennsylvania, Samuel and Jane Standfield seem to have settled first in East Nottingham, Chester County. Samuel and Jane moved closer in on the Pike, to Kennett, about 30 miles from Philadelphia, in the spring of 1731. They seem to have been at East Nottingham only a short time, since their names are not mentioned in the Nottingham meeting records prior to their request to relocate. The following entries concerning their “certificate of removal” from Nottingham have been preserved.

“At Our Meeting of E. Nottingham held the 20th of ye 1st Mo 1730, Samll Stanfield hath requested of this meeting a certificate on behalf of himself & his wife to ye mo’ly meeting of Kennett. Arthur Barret & John Churchman are therefore appointed to make Enquiry in to his conversation & Prepare a Certificate accordingly & bring to ye next Mo’ly meeting. At our mtg of E. Nottingham held ye 17th of ye 2nd mo 1731, The Friends appointed to make Enquirey into ye Conversation & Circumstances of Samll Stanfield have given this meeting an acct yt they find nothing to obstruct him of having a Certificate & have Brought one wch was read, approved & signed at our mtg of E. Nottingham.”

Samuel and Jane Standfield had six children, Alice, John, Jane, William, Samuel and Mary. The three oldest children (Alice, John, and Jane) were probably born in the north of Ireland before the immigration. Samuel and Jane were both at the marriage of daughter Alice to James Fisher on Valentine’s Day in 1736. The birth of their youngest child Mary was recorded in 1738. Jane was at the wedding of son John at Kennett in 1742. Samuel Sr. had apparently died by that time.

James and Alice Fisher moved from Kennett to East Caln, Chester County, in 1741. In 1762 they moved to Newberry Township, York County, where they were members of Warrington Meeting . James and Alice had seven children; Samuel (m. Sarah Wills, 1777), Jane (m. George Philips III of Bucks County, 1762), James (b. 18 Jul 1744 at East Caln, Chester Co. Pa., m. Jane Atkinson 15 Feb 1775 at Monaghan, York Co. Pa.; d. 30 Aug 1828, Highland County, Ohio), Isaac, Amos, Merriam (m. John McAdams), and Elizabeth (m. William Randel).

In 1768, James Sr. conveyed to his oldest son, Samuel, his tract of 200 acres in Newberry Township, for use of Samuel and in trust for the other heirs of James. James died in Monahan Township, York County, in 1771. He left two plantations in Newberry Township, of 200 acres each. Alice died at Monahan in 1788 or after. The will, which was dated June 7, 1788, was not examined. For some reason it may not have been probated until May 2, 1800.

VI. James Fisher Jr. and Jane Atkinson

James Fisher Jr., a Quaker, was born July 18, 1744 in East Caln, Chester County, Pennsylvania, a son of James Fisher and Alice Standfield. In 1762, the family moved to Newberry, York County, where they were members of Warrington Monthly Meeting. James Jr. married Jane Atkinson February 15, 1775 at Newberry. Jane was born in Bucks County in 1753 to Cephas Atkinson and Hannah Naylor. James and Jane settled in nearby Monaghan.

James Fisher Jr. of Monaghan, York County is listed as a veteran of the Revolutionary War. However, the records show that he must have struggled severely with his Quaker principles, and it is not clear to what extent he ever met the roll calls. In 1777, he was fined L3.10.0 for “failure to meet and exercise in order to learn the art military.” He was listed as a Private, Fourth Class with the York County Militia, under Captain Daniel Williams, Second Company, First Battalian, in 1778. He remained a member of this unit when, in 1780, it became the Fourth Company, under Captain Andrew Wilson, Sixth Battalion, in which capacity he paid a fine of L3 after an appeal in 1781, which lists him as “infirm.” After failing to “provide one able-bodied Recruit for the Continental Army, to serve during the War,” under penalty of a fine of L15.0.0 specie, he was found delinquent.

The 1783 tax record for James and Jane shows: James Fisher, of Monaghan Township, 50 acres, 1 house, 1 barn, 2 horned cattle, 2 horses, 1 sheep, 7 inhabitants; valuation L91, tax L1.17.11. Taxables 1783 Monaghan.

Seven of the ten children of James and Alice were born at Warrington. After the war, Quaker records show that James obtained a certificate from the Warrington, Pennsylvania monthly meeting, dated October 10, 1789, to relocate to the monthly meeting in Hopewell, Virginia with wife Jane and children Hannah, Alice, Cephas, Mary, Thomas, James and John. The certificate was received at Hopewell on April 4, 1791. On December 3, 1792, Hopewell records show a request to relocate, with additional children Hiram and Jane, to the Westfield, North Carolina Monthly Meeting. Receipt of the certificate was recorded upon their arrival at Westfield on October 25, 1793. The family then moved to the New Hope monthly meeting in Greene County, Tennessee.

Court records of Greene County, Tennessee contain this account concerning James Fisher and his horse:

“On the Oath of Thomas Doan it appears to the Court now here that James Fisher by the hand of James Galbraith has paid to George Conway former Sheriff of Greene County $5.82, two thirds the appraised Value of a Stray Horse beast wherewith the Said James Fisher appeared to be charged on the Stray list of Said County for the year 1797.”

On December 13, 1804, records of Miami monthly meeting, Highland County Ohio, show the arrival of James and family (with additional child Elizabeth) from Tennessee. The family settled near East Monroe, where James and Jane remained. Fairfield monthly meeting records show that Jane died at age 71 on September 18, 1824, and James died at age 84 on August 30, 1828. Both were buried in theWalnut Creek Friends Cemetery, Fayette County Ohio, near Martinsburg.

VII. Cephas Fisher Sr. and Rachel Stanfield

Cephas Fisher Sr. was a Quaker, born April 13, 1778 at Monahan, York County, Pennsylvania, the son of James Fisher and Jane Atkinson, who were members of the Warrington Monthly Meeting. Cephas Sr. was taken from Pennsylvania in 1789, with his parents and family, to Hopewell, Virginia, then in 1792 to Westfield, North Carolina, and on to Greene County, Tennessee. Cephas Sr. was married August 24, 1803 in the New Hope meeting house, Greene County, Tennessee, to Rachel Stanfield (probably his third cousin).

Rachel Stanfield, born in 1785, was the daughter of Thomas Stanfield and Hannah Vernon. Thomas Stanfield was probably a grandson of John Stanfield, who had come to Pennsylvania from Lurgan, Ireland with parents Samuel Stanfield and Jane Andrew Stanfield. John Stanfield married Hannah Dixon (nee Hadley) at Kennett meeting, in 1742. He moved to Hockesin (now Delaware), and then to Cane Creek, North Carolina in 1753. He died in Orange County in 1755. One of his sons apparently moved to Greene County, Tennessee. Thomas Stanfield was on a Greene County jury in 1802, and other members of the Stanfield family also appear in Greene County court records.

Cephas Fisher Sr.’s grandmother, Alice Stanfield, was also one of the Samuel Stanfield children. Our family tradition, repeated by Grandfather Florance C. Fisher Sr., includes an Irish ancestry which was probably remembered due to history told by both Cephas and Rachel. Cephas and Rachel, and Cephas’ parents, moved from Tennessee to Highland County, Ohio in 1804, where they were members of the Miami Monthly Meeting. Cephas and Rachel lived first near East Monroe in Highland County, then moved near Lees Creek and New Vienna, in Clinton County, where they remained. Rachel died May 5, 1840 at age 55 (Fairfield Monthly Meeting).

Cephas Fisher Sr. remarried after the death of Rachel, to Jane Leech Atkinson, the widow of John Atkinson, who had been robbed and thrown overboard from the “Dutch Boy” during a trip to St. Louis in 1839. Cephas became the guardian of Jane’s minor children.

One child, Eli, was born to Cephas and Jane.

Cephas Sr. died at age 84, December 31, 1863. Cephas and Rachel are buried at Lees Creek Friends cemetery. Thelma Lucille Fisher, in her book “Atkinson - Fisher Quaker Immigrants with William Penn,” 1978, Cox Printing Company, describes Cephas Sr.’s funeral: “Cephas died 30 December 1862, in the Fairview Friends’ Church neighborhood, Clinton County, was taken on a sled, on a cold, snowy New Years Day, to be buried in the Lees Creek Quaker Cemetery, on Highland Road, where mourners were warmed by a huge bonfire. He was 84 years, 8 months, and 17 days old. Both he and Rachel are buried in the back of this cemetery, on the right side.” (The cemetery appears on maps about 1 1/4 miles northwest of Highland, on the left side of the road leaving Highland. It is the site of the old Lees Creek Quaker Meeting House.) Cephas and Rachel had 8 children: Hannah, James, Rebecca, Thomas, John, Samuel, Cephas A. Jr, and Rachel or Jane. This family farmed in Clinton County, Ohio throughout the 19th century. There are Fisher descendants still living on “Fisher Road” leading out of Lees Creek toward New Vienna, which was Cephas Sr.’s post office address.

VIII. Cephas A. Fisher Jr. and Mary Hoskins

Cephas A. Fisher Jr., a Quaker, was born May 18, 1812 in Highland County, Ohio, the son of Cephas Fisher Sr. and Rachel Stanfield. Cephas Jr. married Mary Hoskins 31 August 1837, in the Miami meeting house in Clinton County, Ohio. Mary Hoskins was born about 1822, in Clinton County, Ohio. They moved from Clinton County, Ohio, along with children George M., Josephus, Eli, John W., Benjamin F., Lewis and Rachel, to Sugar Creek Township, Clinton County Indiana (near Frankfort), about 1851. One son, Samuel, was born after the move. Cephas and family moved to Henry County, Iowa in 1867. On October 16, 1867, Cephas Fisher Jr. purchased 65 acres of farm land in Salem Township, Henry County, Iowa, for $1700.

Mary Hoskins Fisher probably died soon after 1870, when she last appears in a census record. Her grandson Florance (in 1966) remembered his father Samuel saying he was “about 11” when his mother died. (He would actually have been at least 13.) Cephas A. Fisher Jr. died March 6, 1895 and was buried in the Salem Friends Cemetery on March 8. The attending physician was Dr. J. M Evans, M. D., of Salem.

According to grandson Florance Fisher in 1966, Cephas Fisher Jr. had the same general appearance of Cephas’ son, Samuel, with dark, thick, wavy hair. He trimmed his whiskers close with scissors, but never used a razor. In the 1880 census, Cephas was living in Tippecanoe Township, Henry County, Iowa. Living with him were son George and family, and son John and family. Information given by Florance C. Fisher, 1966 about Cephas’ family: “George (Bud) died at Jewel County, Kansas; Josephus died of measles and is buried in a Confederate grave at Memphisburg, Tenn.; Eli married Amanda, had a son Joe and died at Jet, Oklahoma; John W. died at Ottumwa, Iowa; Benjamin F. died about 1861; Lewis married Lizzie and died in California. Eight sons were born to Mary and Cephas, the last being twins, one of whom died of an illness in childhood; Mary spun the yarn and wove the material for her family's clothes; Mary died when her youngest son, Samuel, was about 11 years old.” From Grace Long Fisher in 1970: "Cephas Fisher wore long shirts down to the heels with no trousers, as was the custom for farm work."

From talks with Florance Clinton Fisher Sr. while he was hospitalized at age 82, Feb. 11, 1968: “The old home place, 1/4 mile north of Hillsboro (Iowa) was about 4 blocks from a limestone quarry and burned down. The place that was built of brick later was several miles away. George, John, and Cephas lived in the brick house. Samuel and family lived nearby, as did Josephus. I (Florance), Eli, and Samuel once found a slab of limestone with animal tracks in it and cut it and took it to the old place that burned. It should still be on the site. The land, 20 acres, was Eli’s and had a sawmill on a creek. The sawmill had a furnace and boiler. The place was 10 miles from Denova. Levi Frazier had land there and son Hubert was 18-19 around 1892.”

The ancestry for Cephas’ wife, Mary Hoskins, is well known. The lineage has been proven back to 1585, with probable ancestry in Wales before that. The following Hoskins history is taken from “Clinton County, Indiana History and Genealogical Sketches,” compiled by Joan C. Bohm, Evangel Press, 1989, and “The Hoskins, Haskins Family Tree,” by Larry and Elaine Pfaffendorf. In the latter part of the 16th century, the Hoskins family lived in Monmouthshire, Wales.

As early as 1509, there is a record of Thomas Hoskins, of the town of Monmouth, who married Joanna Catchmead. The Hoskins family resided at the Manor of Oxted for many generations and are probably our ancestors. The earliest provable ancestor in the Hoskins direct line is John Goodman Hoskins, from Beaminster County, Dorset, England. He was born in 1585 at Dorset, England and was a probable grandson of Thomas and Joanna Hoskins. He married Ann Mary Filer. John Hoskins was a Quaker who decided to emigrate due to persecution in England. He had his own ship built, the “John and Mary,” and at the age of 45 on March 16, 1630, set sail for the Massachusetts Bay Colony with his family. Their son, Thomas, who was born in 1610 in England, married the widow Elizabeth Gaylord Birge and resided in Windsor County. They had one son, John II, born in 1654, who married Mary Ashton. John and Mary moved to Chester, Pennsylvania about 1683. The Joan C. Bohm sketches say this John was born in “Clyshire, England” and “came about 1683.” They belonged to the Society of Friends. This John Hoskins was one of the original purchasers of land under William Penn, and owned 250 acres at Middletown. He built a home on his lot in Chester and kept a tavern. Their son John Jr. married Ruth Atkinson in 1698. He became Sheriff of Chester County in 1700, and was a member of the provincial assembly. He died in 1716. John and Ruth had a son John who married three times; his second wife being Hannah Evans. John Hoskins was among the earliest settlers in Guilford Co., NC, arriving there ca 1773. John and Hannah had one son, Moses, born 1763, Chester Co., Pennsylvania. Moses married Ruth Hodson (Hodgson), daughter of John Hodgson and Mary Mills, in 1784 in Guilford County, North Carolina. (A note about the Hodgsons: Cora Keagle, in her 1945 book “The Hoskins Family,” says the Hodgsons were descended from George Hodgson, whose family moved from England to Ireland and a few years later took a ship to America. The entire family died in passage except George. Friends on the ship took George to Philadelphia with them in 1710.) Moses Hoskins and wife Ruth moved their family to Ohio in 1810, settling in Clinton County. Moses Hoskins died in 1839, at Tazewell County, Illinois. A son of Moses and Ruth Hoskins, George, married Mary Hodgson (d/o Solomon Hodgson & Chloe Dear), March 3, 1817, at Clinton County, Ohio. They were the parents of Mary Hoskins Fisher, who married Cephas Fisher Jr. Cora Keagle and the Pfaffendorfs both tell about Jonathan Hoskins, an uncle of Mary Hoskins, who distributed seeds to pioneer Ohio families for a variety of apple, which came to be known as the “Jonathan” apple.

Cephas A. & Mary (Hoskins) Fisher had three sons who served in the Civil War. George M. & Jocephas Fisher served in Company G, 86th Indiana Infantry. Eli enlisted in Company B, 17th Regiment Indiana Mounted Infantry while he was just 17 years old. In order not to lie about his age, he put a paper with the number 18 on it in his shoe, and then avowed that he was “over 18.” His enlistment papers show that he had blue eyes, light hair, and was 5’ 3” tall.

Eli Fisher was born 29 September 1846, Clinton Co., Ohio. He married Amanda Jane Alexander (d/o John & Betsy Alexander) in Frankfort, Indiana, 14 March 1867. Eli and Amanda, Cephas A. and Mary, and at least two other sons, George M. (m. Rachel Meese) and Lewis (m. Elizabeth Henderson), moved to Henry Co., Iowa, ca 1868. Cephas A. Fisher had a farm in Salem Twp (Henry County) Iowa. Eli and Amanda lived in Henry County, then for a few years in Jewell Co., Kansas. They were the parents of ten children, but only one lived to adulthood. Several children succumbed to diptheria epidemics raging during those years.

Their son, Joseph C. Fisher, was born 2 January 1872, at Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. His first wife, Ellen Woods, was the mother of Lilie M., William S., Grace, and Ray Fisher. Ellen died after the birth of Ray in 1902. The family had moved to Woods Co., Oklahoma Territory, ca 1897. Eli and Amanda and Eli’s brother, Lewis, and family were also there in 1900. Joseph C. Fisher married Linnie May Alcorn in 1905. Their daughter, Coralie, was born at Jet (Alfalfa County) Oklahoma, 25 July 1906. Joseph & Linnie were divorced ca 1908, and Joseph later married Mrs. Pearl Hung, who had two small daughters. Joe & Pearl were the parents of Joseph S. (killed in a tornado while a child), Herberet, Harry, & Joseph Fisher Jr. (d. in Battle of St. Lo, WW II). Joe & Pearl moved their family to southern California during the 1930’s. His daughters from his first & second marriages grew up and married in Oklahoma. His son, Ray, was reared by his Woods grandparents in Iowa. Joseph’s son, William, preceded his mother, Ellen, in death. This Cephas A. Fisher information was taken from the submittal in Joan Bohm’s book by Patricia Meyer Franks, Rt. 1, Box 35, Wawaka, IN 46794; Granddaughter of Jos. C. Fisher & d/o Coralie Fisher Meyer Stalcup.

IX. Samuel Fisher and Effie Van Tassell

Samuel Fisher, the last of our line to belong to a Quaker family, was born January 30, 1857, near Frankfort, Clinton County, Indiana, the youngest son of Cephas A. Fisher and Mary Hoskins. Their son Florance said (in 1966) that Samuel had a twin, Jimmie, who died in childhood after falling into an icy stream. The twin does not appear on the 1860 census. Samuel’s family moved from Indiana to Henry County, Iowa, north of Hillsboro and near Salem, in 1868. Samuel married Effie Van Tassell on May 13, 1880 at Mankato, Kansas. Effie Van Tassel was born October 25, 1863, in Tipton, Indiana according to Grace Long Fisher, a daughter-in-law. Effie was the daughter of Royal Park (Rufus) Van Tassell and Nancy Conner. Samuel and Effie lived first in Mt. Pleasant, Iowa, then moved to Jewel Co., Kansas and back to Mt. Pleasant about 1888, then to Woods County and Helena, Oklahoma about 1897. They moved to Arkansas about 1898 and moved back to Helena in 1909. They moved to Beaver County about 1910 and to Haskell, Oklahoma in 1911. Samuel died in Okmulgee and was buried at Haskell. Samuel was a good violinist, according to his daughter, Mary. His Quaker family, however, told him there was a "devil in it" and made him dispose of it. One of his grandaughters, Edith Fisher Green, tells of Samuel's stories of watching his mother spinning yarn, weaving cloth, and sewing jeans for him to wear. Samuel's son, Florance, tells of Samuel travelling by covered wagon throughout his lifetime. In his eighties, Florance told of still remembering the trip by covered wagon from Iowa to Oklahoma.

Samuel Fisher died August 15, 1930, at Okmulgee, Oklahoma. Effie Van Tassell Fisher died June 25, 1912, at Haskell, Oklahoma. Samuel and Effie are buried at Haskell, but not side by side, as there was an error in the purchase of the cemetery lots which resulted in separated graves.

Samuel and Effie had 12 children: Minnie Myrtle, Georgia Lula, Samuel Chaning, Florance Clinton, Rufus Clyde, Royal Park, Lillie Evalette, Mary Elizabeth, Ora Paul, Floyd Oran, Loyd Loren (died in infancy), and Mabel Pearl. The youngest, Mabel Pearl, resides in August 1995 at Wichita, Kansas and is an excellent pianist, playing ragtime and popular music. Pearl and her sister Mary played at barn dances and other functions in their youth. The following family information was sent by Effie Van Tassel Fisher to son Clyde about 1912.

IX. Samuel Fisher and Effie Van Tassell (Continued)

The Van Tassell ancestry is not known beyond Effie Van Tassell Fisher’s parents. Florance Clinton Fisher Sr. in 1966 recalled his grandfather Van Tassel being named “Royal Parkinson,” but did not seem certain of the middle name. Daughter Lillie referred to her father as "Rufus" in her statement on the 1930 death certificate. According to one census, Rufus’ father was born in New York and his mother was born in Virginia. According to grandson F. C. Fisher Sr. and wife Grace Long Fisher, Rufus was short and stocky, with dark red, curly hair; had a jolly nature and sang folk songs, often accompanying them with music on the bandsaw; was from Indiana, in the Terre Haute area, and lived at Tipton, Indiana, where their daughter, Effie, was born. They thought that after “Grandpa” Van Tassel died, he went to live with Samuel Fisher and family near Hillsboro and Salem, Iowa until his death about 1892. Mary Fisher Holmes believed he died elsewhere.

1880 Census: Jewell County, Kansas, Holmwood Township, June 16, 1880, Pg. 21, Spvsr's District 3, Enumeration District 122, J. Fellows, Enumerator, House 50, Line 21

Vantassell, Rufus
Age 56, Farmer, Sick or temporarily disabled; b. Ohio; Father b. NY; Mother b. Va.
Lorinda, Wife, age 33; "Keeping House"; b. Indiana, Father b. N. C.; Mother b. (Ohio)
Lillie, dau., 14, attends school, b. Ind.; Nellie, dau., 3, b. Iowa;
Hiram B., son, 1, b. Kansas
Aluus E. Dorman, 11, Stepson, b. Iowa, Father b. Conn

The following is a combination of information from F. C. and Grace Fisher, 1967; the death certificate; and census records. Children:

Park Atkinson(?) Van Tassel - Born July 25, ca. 1853, Indiana, d. Oct. 24, 1930, Oakland Cal., moved to California about 1900, wife Bessie. Lillie Van Tassel Hart - b. ca 1866. Lived at 9423 "B" Street, Oakland Cal. in 1930.

Effie Van Tassel Fisher - b. about 1863

Lorinda was apparently Rufus’ second wife. A half-sister to Park was remembered as Mrs. Minnie Crew.

All that is presently known about Rufus’ first wife, Nancy Connor, is that she preceded her husband in death by several years (according to grandson F. C. Fisher), and that she was born in Indiana (according to daughter Lillie on Rufus Van Tassel’s death certificate in 1930, also according to the Jewell County, Kansas 1880 census). She must have died between 1869 and 1877 according to births of Rufus' stepchildren and later children.

Effie Van Tassell Fisher’s brother, Park Van Tassell, & wife became renowned in the late 19th century for balloon ascensions in the U. S. and China. His wife accompanied him and pioneered in parachute jumping. (See articles following.) Park Van Tassel is buried at Oakland, California. At the time of his death, he was living on Market Street, operating the "Captain P. A. Van Tassel Toy Balloon Mfg. Co.," a maker of miniature balloon ascension toys.

IX. Samuel Fisher and Effie Van Tassell (Continued)

Los Angeles Sunday Times, June 27, 1886, Page 1, Column 3:

THE MONITOR

"The enormous balloon Monitor continues to draw big crowds. Prof. Van Tassel's wife went up in the first ascent yesterday. Ascents have hardly become popular yet, but probably will, as people become accustomed to the idea. The amusement is a most novel one, and probably no more dangerous than baseball. The morning is the best time to go up, as the air is stiller. About 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon, there being a stiff breeze, the aerial monster had quite a rustle to light properly. She came down first in Morgan Lane, then on ex-Mayor Thom's house, then in his backyard, then on the house No. 240 South Main - there demolishing a chimney and a summer kitchen - then on the vacant lot outside the enclosure, and at last back to its proper nest. The experience of an ascent and the view gained are well worth taking." From the Okmulgee, Oklahoma Daily Times: "Mrs. Parks Van Tassel is believed to be the first person to make a parachute jump, having made a successful landing after leaping from a balloon over Los Angeles on July 4, 1882."

X. Florance Clinton Fisher and Grace Minette Long

Florance Clinton Fisher was born August 8, 1886, in Jewel City, Kansas, the son of Samuel Fisher and Effie Van Tassell. He married Grace Minett Long on November 2, 1907 at Enid, Oklahoma. Grace, born March 14, 1890 at Harper, Kansas was the daughter of Woodford Trennel Long and Susan Kate Harp. Florance and Grace raised their six children at various locations in Oklahoma, first at Sunset, then near Helena, then Haskell, and then at Morris, where the three youngest were born. The marriage record for Florance Clinton Fisher Sr. is Record 7, Book 327. Florance worked in oil fields, and later in semi-retirement managed pumping schedules for wells. After the children were grown, Florance and Grace lived near Henderson, in east Texas, at Mexia, Texas, El Dorado, Arkansas, and at Junction City, Texas.

Florance Clinton Fisher died January 10, 1969, at Joplin, Missouri. Grace Long Fisher died October 5, 1977, at Joplin, Missouri. Both are buried in the Osborne Memorial Cemetery in Joplin. Children of Florance and Grace: Evalyn Effie, Woodford Pascal, Edith Leroy, Ruth Marine, Florance Clinton Jr., and Georgia Marie.

1. Evalyn Effie, b. 19 Nov 1908 Sunset, Okla., mar. 1 Keith Miller, mar. 2 Bob Copenbarger
2. Woodford Pascal, b. 20 Jul 1911, near Helena, Okla., mar. 30 Nov 1931 Dorothy Berneice Kelly at Medicine Lodge, Kansas
3. Edith Leroy, b. 2 Feb 1914, Haskell, Oklahoma, mar. 8 Aug 1934 Edgar Owen Green at Talequah, Okla.
4. Ruth Marine, b. 8 Feb 1918, Morris, Oklahoma, mar. 1 Noble Shaw, mar. 2 Pete Argain

6. Georgia Marie, b. 18 May 1924 at Morris, Oklahoma, mar. 19 Dec 1941 James Porter Gann.

Grace Long Fisher’s father, Woodford Trennel Long, was born 1855 at Darlington, Montgomery County, Indiana. Grace’s mother, Susan Kate Harp, was born in 1863 at Crawfordsville, Indiana. Woodford and Susan Kate both died at Cleo Springs, Major County, Oklahoma. The Long and Harp direct ancestry has been researched through several generations, by C. V. (Tug) Bailey of Tulsa, Oklahoma. Woodford Trennel Long was the son of Hughett E. Long, born 1832 at Darlington, Indiana, and Clementine Taylor, born in Ohio in 1831. Hughett was the son of Oath Long, born 1794 in Pennsylvania, and Sarah Titus, born in Virginia in 1701. Sarah was the daughter of Samuel and Polly Titus, who came from Virginia to Ohio, then to Indiana. Oath was the son of Gideon Long, of Queen Ann County, Maryland, and Elizabeth (Surname Unknown), both born in England. Gideon was the son of John Long, Jr. and Ann Harrington, from Williamsville, Baltimore Hundred, Sussex county, Delaware and later Greene County, Washington County, and Fayette County, Pennsylvania, then in Queen Anne County, Maryland where they died. John and Ann had eight children: John III, David, James, Eliel, Mannoah (Noah), Ann, Gideon, and Jeremiah. The seven sons were all in the Revolutionary War. John Jr.’s father, John Sr., lived in Queen Anne County and died there in 1746. Grace Long Fisher in 1970 says "Hughie" Long was Welsh and Irish and had at least three sons; Woodford Trennel, Paul, and Will. (See the biography of Oath Long later in this section.) According to Grace Long Fisher in 1970, Woodford Trennel Long married a second wife, Hattie Boyd, who had a daughter Blanch Boyd; and Fred Long had 6 children, including son Wayne Eugene. Fred Long died in 1929 at Rankin, Oklahoma.

Woodford Trennel Long died at Ringwood, Oklahoma and was buried in the Square Cedar Cemetery about 10 miles from Helena, Oklahoma.

The Harp ancestry is known through Susan Kate Harp’s grandfather, Adam Harp. Susan Kate was the daughter of Washington Harp, born 1823 near Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, and Susan M. Smith, born in Kentucky in 1832. Susan Smith was the daughter of Phillip Smith, born 1782, and Susan Black, born 1792. Susan Kate Harp was born about 20 miles from Mammoth Cave, Kentucky. She died at age 32 after having been attended by Dr. Windebager for an abdominal tumor. Her daughter, Grace Long Fisher, who was only five years old at the time, remembered the trauma of her mother’s death throughout her lifetime, and said in 1970 that the family had been reluctant to allow an operation.

In the 1880 census for Montgomery County, Indiana, Union Township, near Crawfordsville, we find Woodford Long, 25, and Kate, 17, married in the year 1880 before the June 5-7 census taking, Kate had attended school in spring. Washington Harp, father of Susan Kate Harp, owned slaves in Kentucky before the Civil War. The family moved to Indiana when Susan Kate was a baby, around 1863.

Children of Washington Harp and Susan Smith were "Babe," Tom, Bud - Married Laura Byrd, Betty Harp Epperson, Annie Harp Watkins, and Susan Kate Harp Long.

The 1870 Census for Montgomery County, Indiana, Union Township, Crawfordsville Post Office shows these children, all born in Kentucky: Thomas b. 1842; William b. 1845; Robert b. 1847; Mary b. 1859; Anna b. 1861; Kate b. 1863; also, two unmarried sisters of Washington Harp: Elizabeth b. 1807, b. Pennsylvania; Ann, b. 1816 Kentucky (Would be 1811 according to 1880 census.) The 1880 census for the same place shows Susan Harp, 47, widow; Robert, 22; Annie, 19; Betsy, 73, and Ann, 69, sisters-in-law.

Susan Smith, mother of Susan Kate Harp, was probably born and raised in Kentucky. She married Washington Harp in 1849 and lived first near Mammoth Cave, Kentucky, where at least one of six children was born. The family had slaves until the Civil War, at which time they moved to Indiana. Susan Smith Harp lived with a son-in-law, Albert Watkins, after the death of her husband, near Harper, Kansas. She died at age 81 at Harper, Pilot Knob Township, Harper County, Kansas, and was buried at Danville, Kansas. She was attended by Dr. C. W. Winleigter of Harper. Her mother's maiden name was Black.

The following biography of Oath Long is taken from the “History of Montgomery County, Indiana,” A. W. Bowen & Co., Indianapolis: “No pioneer who braved the wilds of Montgomery county three quarters of a century ago is deserving of remembrance by his descendants and those who came after to share the fruits of the strenuous labors of these self-denying and self-sacrificing men more than Oath Long, who, although long a sleeper in ‘death’s garden where we all shall meet,’ yet has an milnence for good and whose life of industry and honesty is worthy of mutation by the youth who would succeed at his chosen life task and at the same time do some good while passing through this so-called “mundane sphere.”


Mr. Long was born in Pennsylvania on December 13, 1794, and was a son of Gideon and Elizabeth Long, both natives of England, and as all records were long ago lost no data can be had of them, except that they emigrated to America in colonial days and spent some time in Pennsylvania, later invading the wilderness of Indiana and establishing the family home in Union Township, Montgomery County, where they spent the rest of their lives and died here. Oath Long grew to manhood in Pennsylvania, and when thirty-six years old, in the year 1830, he came to Montgomery County, Indiana, and here determined to cast his lot permanently, for although the country was wild, he had the sagacity to foresee for it a great future and he set to work with a will clearing and improving his one hundred and sixty acres of land which he entered from the government near Crawfordsville. He was twice married, first to Martha Vail, in Butler County, Ohio, where he lived for some time after he left Pennsylvania, before coming to Indiana, and in that county she died in early life, leaving two children, Louisa and Abram, both of whom have long since passed away. On June 17, 1823, while still living in Ohio, he married Sarah Titus, who was a native of Virginia, born there on August 29, 1801. She was a daughter of Samuel and Polly Titus, who left Virginia for Ohio in an early day, later coming on to Montgomery county, Indiana, where they established their home and died here. The death of Mr. Long’s second wife occurred on January 6, 1879. Six children were born to this last union, namely: Wilson, born April 24, 1889; his wife died May 16, 1907. Lydia, born January 24, 1823, married W. T. McCoy in 1849, and they are both deceased; Samuel T., born November 23, 1838, died December 8, 1911, HUETT, born November 25, 1832, is now living in Darlington, Montgomery County, William, born October 16, 1835, lives on a farm east of Crawfordsville; Benjamin lives in Crawfordsville, Indiana.” In the “Centennial History of Butler County, Ohio,” B.F. Bowen & Co., 1905, we learn that Noah Long, Gideon Long and David Long were among the first settlers of Madison Township, Butler County, Ohio, in 1805.

XI. Woodford Pascal Fisher and Dorothy Berneice Kelly

Woodford Pascal (Bill) Fisher was born June 20, 1911 in Alfalfa County, Oklahoma, near Helena, the son of Florance Clinton Fisher and Grace Long. Woodford married Dorothy Berneice Kelly on November 30, 1931, at Medicine Lodge, Kansas. Dorothy, born October 29, 1915, was the daughter of James A. Kelly and Gladys Dell Hartman. Woodford worked as a carpenter, then for a number of years as a dragline operator on construction projects in Missouri, Louisiana, Beaumont, and elsewhere. He worked as an auto mechanic, first at Henderson, Texas and then for many years after moving the family to Mexia, Texas. He ran a gas station in Mexia and then owned an auto repair business. Seven children of W. P. Fisher (Sr.) and Dorothy Kelly Fisher survived infancy: James Clinton, Jackie Lynn, Gladys Grace, Karan Kay, Billie Louise, Woodford Pascal Jr., and Dorothy Berneice. Woodford Pascal Fisher died April 1, 1990 at Mexia, Texas and was buried in the Forest Glade Cemetery. Details of children:

James A. Garfield Kelly, born at Greencastle, Indiana in 1880, was the son of Samuel H. Kelly, born 1846, and Elizabeth Davis, born 1847, both from Yadkinville, North Carolina. James A. married Gladys Dell Hartman in 1906, at Woodward County, Oklahoma. Both are buried in the Good Hope Cemetery near Enid, Oklahoma. Samuel Kelly’s parents were Henry Kelly, born 1804, from Yadkin County (then Surrey County), North Carolina (Five Mile Fork Post Office), and Sarah (Reamer?), born 1815. The ancestry of Henry Kelly is unknown. Family tradition says that our Kellys came from Ireland. The eleven children of James Kelly and Elizabeth Davis were Mary Jane, Sarah, Jessie, Lillian, Rose, Charlie, James (Jim), Mattie, Chester, Samantha, and Allie.

Gladys Dell Hartman was the daughter of David Ellsworth Hartman and Eliza Jane Green. The Hartmans came from Germany. The Green branch of this family has been traced back to Brighton, England. David Ellsworth Hartman was the son of Henry H. Hartman, born 1825, and Sarah Jane Gerber, born 1832, who were married in 1851 near Cicero, Indiana. David Ellsworth’s parents were both born in Cicero, Indiana, both were of German descent and spoke German. They had 12 children: Frederick G., Hames Osro, Mary Elen, Joseph Allen, George Granvil, Lydia Ann, Elmira M. (Ella), David Ellsworth, Isaac F., Rosa B., William H., and Eddie W. David Ellsworth moved to Iowa and then went to Wichita, Kansas to take a job with Wilfred and Becky Green. David married the Green's daughter Eliza Jane at the County Courthouse. They were married by S. E. Barrett. David's brother Joe, who had come to Kansas with him, also married and both couples settled at Mt. Hope, Kansas. David and Eliza lived there on a farm until the opening of the Cherokee Strip. He ran for land in the Strip opening, and became a rural mail carrier at May, Oklahoma. He operated the first hack that carried passengers and mail from May to Gage, Oklahoma. He did construction work in later years. David was buried in the Enid, Oklahoma Memorial Park Cemetery. Official date of death for David Ellsworth Hartman was given as May 1, 1952 by the attending physician as he estimated the time of death to be before midnight.

Eliza Jane Green was born in Illinois, although she was raised at Wichita, Kansas. She was married to David Ellsworth Hartman at Wichita, Kansas, in the Courthouse, by S. E. Barrett. Eliza Jane Green Hartman died in a house fire at Covington, Oklahoma and was buried in the Memorial Park Cemetery at Enid, Oklahoma. Eliza was the daughter of Wilfred Green Jr., born 1840 at Brighton, England, and Rebecca Jane (surname unknown), who had two known children: Eliza Jane, and Freddie (died in infancy). Wilfred Green Sr. came to America with a daughter, Hannah, and two sons, John and Wilfred. Isaac Newton Phillips, who later married Hannah, also came with the Greens. Wilfred Jr. and his father both served in the Civil War. Wilfred Jr. is known to have drawn a Civil War Veterans pension. Wilfred Green Jr. married Rebecca Jane ---- and settled at Mount Hope, Kansas, eventually in Sedgewick County. Wilfred Sr., Wilfred Jr., Rebecca Jane, Hannah, Isaac Newton Phillips, John, and other relatives are all buried in the Mount Hope Cemetery in Sedgewick County. All the graves are well marked.

Wilfred Green Sr. was also born in Brighton, England. Descendents say Wilfred Green Sr. came to America about 1843 with a daughter, Hannah, two sons, John and Wilfred Jr., and Dr. Isaac Newton Phillips. Dr. Phillips later married Hannah. According to Hannah's gravestone, she was born in 1847, so the immigration might have been later than 1843. According to the gravestone of Wilfred Green Sr., he served in the 25th New Jersey Infantry in the Civil War. Wilfred Jr., also served in the Civil War, most likely in New Jersey also.

Information concerning the children of Wilfred Green, Sr.:

Hannah Jane Green Phillips was born in Brighton, England on December 23, 1847 and died on December 5, 1921 at Mount Hope, Kansas. She married Dr. Isaac Newton Phillips, who was born on May 1, 1820 in England. Dr. Phillips died at Mount Hope on December 27, 1901. A son was born to them, Jehu "Duge" Phillips, on October 4, 1888. Jehu Phillips died on March 17, 1965 at Mount Hope. He married Mary Opal ---- on August 23, 1919. Mary Opal ---- Phillips was born on November 26, 1889.

John Green married Emily ----. Both are buried at Mount Hope, Kansas. Two children, George and Vesta died unmarried at Mount Hope. George was born on October 4, 1886, and died on May 21, 1963. Vesta was born August 24, 1884 and died December 8, 1954.

Elizabeth Davis was the daughter of Jonathan Davis and Rachel Fleming of Yadkinville, North Carolina. This account of Elizabeth Davis Kelly is given in “Our Alfalfa County Heritage,” Alfalfa County (Oklahoma) Historical Society, 1976:

“Elizabeth Davis Kelly, a widow, came to Oklahoma from Turon, Kansas, soon after the Strip opened -- with six of her 11 children. She settled on a claim staked by her oldest son, Jessie. He had come ahead on horseback to get the claim, and Elizabeth then filed on it. She and five children came in a covered wagon, bringing all their possessions. A son-in-law, Pete Levens, of Turon, drove the cattle and helped her make the move. He then returned to Kansas.

Four of the Kelly girls were already married and living in Kansas. They were Lillian Hohl, Mary Jane Durham, Sarah Levens, and Rose McNickle. The five children who came in the covered wagon were Jim, Mattie, Chester, Samantha, and Allie.

Elizabeth Davis was born in Yadkin County, N. Carolina, July 31, 1847. When she was in her teens, the family moved to Putnam County near Greencastle, Indiana. Samuel H. Kelly made the move with the Davis family from N. Carolina where he was born June 8, 1846. Elizabeth’s brother, Sampson, was drafted into the Confederate Army and being unsympathetic with the South, tried to escape to the North. He was shot in the foot and put in Andersonville Prison. The war between the States was the reason for the Davis family moving to Indiana. Samuel and Elizabeth were married in Indiana and 10 of their children were born there. They moved by covered wagon to Turon, in 1884. In 1886 when Samuel was 40 years old, he died before their 11th child, Allie, was born.

For some time after Mrs. Kelly and her family came to Oklahoma, they lived in their covered wagon and in an outdoors campsite. The older girls and boys worked for neighbors to help their mother.

Jim married Gladys Hartman from Carrier. They are buried in the Good Hope cemetery.

Mattie married George Elliott and lived near Aline all her life. Chester went to Medicine Lodge, where he and his wife, Lennis, lived until moving to Colorado where both are buried. Allie married Wiley Wells and he died in a few short years and is buried near Aline. She then married a Mr. Bartholomew and moved to Medicine Lodge, where she is buried. Samantha married Arthur Marlow whose parents staked a claim in the Carmen area. After living in this area for a time, they moved to Enid. She is the only survivor of the 11 children. A widow, she is 91 years old and lives alone. (Note: Samantha lived well over 100 years and died in Enid.) After some years the farm was sold to a daughter and son-in-law, Rose and George McNickle. It remained in the McNickle name until three years ago when Cecil McNickle was killed in an accident and the land was sold to Terry Ryel.

In relating this story, Samantha Marlow says she remembers the first evening they were on the claim. A cupboard was set outside the wagon, and wanting something out of it, she climbed up and caused it to upset. Her words were ‘And I got a good whipping.’” By Samantha Marlow, at age 91.

XI. Woodford Pascal Fisher and Dorothy Berneice Kelly (Continued)

This account was supplied by Mrs. Ruby Durham Guthrie: “The Davis famiy moved to Putnam County, Indiana, near Greencastle, during or just after the Civil War (perhaps 1865), when Elizabeth was in her teens. Samuel H. Kelly made the move to Indiana with the Davis family, and married one of the Davis girls, Elizabeth, in Indiana. Most of their children were born near Greencastle. They moved to Turon, Kansas in the spring of 1884. In 1887, when Samuel was 40 years old, he and all the children had the measles. Samuel died of complications several months before his last child was born. He was buried in the Neola Cemetery near Turon. Elizabeth’s brother, Sampson was also buried at Neola. Elizabeth moved to Oklahoma in the land rush of 1890.”

Elizabeth's son James once said that his mother was related to the Jefferson Davis family. This has not been verified.

Jonathan Davis, Elizabeth Davis’ father, was the son of William Davis and Ann Hutchens. Jonathan was married to Rachel Fleming November 13, 1833 in Surrey County, by Joel Hutchens (a brother of Ann Hutchins). Mrs. Reba Lotten of Salinas, California, a descendant of Sampson Davis, reports in 1990 of finding Quaker records of Morgan County, Indiana showing Jonathan's parents to be William Davis and Ann Hutchins Davis, married in 1810. According to the same source, Ann Hutchens Davis was the daughter of Jonathan Hutchens and Elizabeth Beaver Hutchens. According to Reba Lotten, "The man who sent the info about William and Ann Hutchens, is related on the Hutchens side of the family, and knew that Ann had a brother Joel, who was bondsman for Jonathan and Rachel. Jonathan died in 1896 and was buried in Morgan County, Indiana at West Union Cemetery (Quaker Monthly Meeting record)."

Two census records for Jonathan Davis and family have been located as follows:

1850, October 9, Surrey County, North Carolina, house 1143:

Jonathan Davis, 37, farmer, born N. C.; Rachel, 39, b. N. C.

Jesse, 15, b. N. C.; Daniel, 13, b. N. C.; Susannah, 11, b. N. C.; Sampson, ?; b. N. C.;
(age faded - perhaps 8); Elisabeth 3, b. N. C.

1860, Yadkin County, North Carolina, Yadkinville Post Office:
Jonathan Davis, 50, farmer, born N. C.; Rachel, 50, b. N. C.
Jesse W., 26, b. N. C.; Elizabeth, 13, b. N. C.; Sampson, 13, b. N. C. (age probably 18, but
looks like 13 on this record); Mary M., 7, b. N. C.; Lission 22, (Domestic)

Rachel could read and write, but Jonathan could not. Jonathan's personal estate in 1860 was valued at $385.

Bryan Jessup, a grandson of Sampson, gives this information about Sampson Davis: Descendents of Sampson Davis (Jonathan’s brother) have reported an affidavit signed by Sampson upon entering the Reno, Kansas County Home which gives his birth year as 1842. The Reno County, Kansas Welfare Department has the affidavit signed by Sampson Davis giving his date of birth as March 18, 1842. The Turon Funeral Home records show his birth date as December 12, 1845. The affidavit is assumed to be correct. Sampson Davis married Margeret Jane Johnson and lived in Iowa until she died in 1907. He then moved to Missouri, Arkansas, and Kansas. He married Bessie Stanley of Moberly, Missouri at Gravette, Arkansas. They lived a few years at Marshalltown, Iowa and moved to Turon, Kansas about 1925. Sampson had worked in the carpenter trade while in Iowa.

XII. Jackie Lynn Fisher and Janice Gayle Thornton

Jackie Lynn Fisher, son of Woodford Pascal (Bill) Fisher Sr. and Dorothy Berneice Kelly, was born in a farmhouse near Jet, Oklahoma, in 1939. His father’s job as a dragline operator took the family to various places in Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, Texas and Louisiana. About 1943, Woodford moved the family to Henderson, Texas and began work as an auto mechanic, in order to avoid the frequent relocations. Jackie Lynn started school at Henderson and was briefly in the country school of New Salem, between Henderson and Jacksonville. The family moved to Mexia, Texas, in Limestone County, in 1946. Jackie married Janice Gayle Thornton, daughter of Macon Ellington Thornton and Emma Lucille Blackmon of Pt. Enterprise, near Mexia, in 1959. Jackie received degrees in mathematics and physics at Arlington State College in 1961. Janice attended Draughns Business College in Dallas, and worked for the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Janice and Jackie moved, in the summer of 1961, to Port Hueneme, California, in Ventura County, where Jackie worked as a computer programer at the Pacific Missile Range, for the Department of the Navy. Daughter Laura Lynn was born in Ventura. The family moved back to Texas in the fall of 1962, to Houston, where Jackie worked for the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, in the area of computing and information systems, for more than 30 years. The family moved to Seabrook, near the space center, in 1964. As of this writing, in 1995, Janice and Jackie still live in Seabrook. Janice is a staff writer and administrative secretary at the University of Houston-Clear Lake.

Laura Lynn Fisher was born November 3, 1961 at Ventura, California. She attended Clear Lake High School, and received degrees from Sam Houston State University at Huntsville, Texas, in Computer Science and Spanish. She worked in the aerospace industry and has done language tutoring, and is currently a consultant in multimedia computing. She married Barry Leroy Armer of Baytown, Texas May 21, 1983, at Baytown. They have one son, Justin Lee, born April 24, 1985 at Webster, Texas; and one daughter, Emma Kathleen, born January 30, 1996 at Nassau Bay (Houston), Texas. At this writing, she lives with her family in Clear Lake City (Houston) and is working on a graduate degree at the University of Houston-Clear Lake. Barry received a degree in accounting at Sam Houston State University and works at Seagull Energy Corporation.

Kevin Shawn Fisher was born July 28, 1964 in Houston, Texas. He attended Clear Lake High School, and obtained degrees in Chemistry and Chemical Engineering from Sam Houston State University and Texas A & M University. He married Doreen Marie Schmelter of Houston, June 11, 1988 at Houston and has one daughter, Kirby Leigh, and one son, Kyle Ellington. At this writing, Kevin lives with his family in Georgetown, Texas and is working at Radian Corporation as a Senior Chemical Engineer. Doreen is an Industrial Engineer and manager at Xetel Corporation.

Jonathan Davis Fisher, named for an ancestor in the family tree, was born April 8, 1969, at Texas City, Texas. He attended Clear Lake High School, and received a degree in Music Composition at North Texas State University. He attended the University of Surrey in Guildford, England, and received a Master of Music Composition degree from Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois. Jonathan married Alisa Diane Mayfield of Clear Lake City (Houston), August 15, 1992, at Nassau Bay, Texas. Alisa received a degree in English at Baylor University. At this writing, they live in Evanston, Illinois. Jonathan is working on a doctorate degree in music composition at Northwestern.

The Atkinson Intermarriages

The Fisher and Atkinson families were closely allied for many generations, and there are several intermarriages which have given some of our Fisher branches even more Atkinson than Fisher ancestry. A confusing example is Cephas Fisher Sr., whose mother was Jane Atkinson, daughter of Cephas Atkinson and Hannah Naylor. When Cephas Fisher’s first wife Rachel died, he married Jane Leech Atkinson, the widow of his great-uncle John Atkinson (Cephas Atkinson’s brother). The Fisher family name “Cephas” came from Cephas Atkinson, the father of Jane Atkinson. (Cephas Atkinson had many ancestors named Cephas. This name can be traced back to Cephas Child, a maternal Atkinson ancestor.) Cephas Fisher Sr.’s son John married his cousin Hannah Atkinson, daughter of John Atkinson and Jane Leech Atkinson. Rebecca, a daughter of Cephas Fisher Sr., married Isaac Atkinson, a cousin. Mary Hoskins, wife of Cephas Fisher Jr., was descended from John Hoskins II of Clyshire, England and his wife Ruth Atkinson. Cephas Sr. became the guardian of John and Jane Leech Atkinson’s minor children when he married John’s widow. An excellent genealogy of John Atkinson’s descendants is included in Thelma Fisher’s book, which contains this story about John Atkinson:

“John Atkinson, a stock buyer, made several trips into Pennsylvania, buying and selling horses. John met Jane Leech, who was born 19 December 1805, in Warrington Township, York County, Pennsylvania, the daughter of Thomas and Hannah Leech.

John Atkinson became engaged to Jane on one trip and married the next, probably in the spring of 1826. Jane came to Ohio, on horseback, over the mountains, with a covered wagon containing provisions for their journey and carefully made home-woven linens, ready for her new home in Highland County.

John Atkinson surprised Jane with a cabin home built the year before, in a clearing made for a yard and garden; a barrel of maple molasses, another of maple sugar and one of pork ready for her capable hands.

John Atkinson was robbed and thrown overboard, when the steamboat “Swiss Boy” docked at Cincinnati, on its return from St. Louis, 14 May 1838. The Captain and eight others on the boat signed the letter notifying Jane that her husband, John Atkinson, was missing. Later, when the boat was moved, his body was found underneath. Cephus Atkinson, John’s brother, claimed the body but his money and the gold watch he was carrying were missing. John Atkinson was buried in Potter’s Field, Cincinnati, and later a stone with his initials, chiseled by Jane Atkinson, was placed to mark his resting place.

Thelma Fisher gives this genealogy for the Atkinsons:

John Atkinson, son of William and Anne, born 1659, came from Scotford, England with his wife, Suzannah (Hynde) and three children - William born 7-31-1687; Mary born 7-25 1689, and John born 8-22-1695. Dying of smallpox on board the ship BRITTANICA in 1699, John and Suzannah left no record of themselves except a certificate from the Lancaster Monthly Meeting, England, dated 3-2-1699. The Monthly Meeting gave them a a favorable recommendation --- “To our friends of the Province of Pennsylvania.” This certificate was read at the Middletown Monthly Meeting of 9-26-1699.

It was the judgement of the Monthly Meeting at which the certificate was read “that all friends’ children that are left orphans must be taken care of by the Meeting in the most suitable manner according to their capacity.”

The three children arriving in Pennsylvania were brought up in the neighborhood of Newton and were witnesses to the marriages of their friends. They were members of the Society of Friends where they themselves married under the care of the Monthly Meetings.

William married Phebe Taylor 3-3-1716, and fathered four daughters. Later, William removed his certificate from Middletown to Abington and subsequently married again. It is believed he lived at Upper Dublin Township, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania.

Mary married Cephas Child of Westminister 2-12-1716. From this marriage came four children, Henry born 1-22- 1717, Cephas born 10-30-1718, John born 6-10-1720, and Isaac born 3-1-1722. These four children perished when their home was destroyed by fire. Four other children were born later and given the same names. Henry born 1-1-1725, Cephas born 1-18-1727, John born 6-14-1730, and Isaac born 3- 14-1734.

2. The family line, however, is carried through John, born 22 August 1695 in England, who espoused Mary Crossdale Smith on 30 June 1717, who was the daughter of William and Mary Crossdale Smith of Wrightstown. John and Mary bought 200 acres in Wakefield of Tobias Collette County in 8-20-1718 (a part of the London County Trust). John Atkinson died in 1752. Eight children were born to John and Mary - John, William, Thomas, Christopher, Mary, Ezekial, Cephas, and Elizabeth.

3. Cephas, born 8-20-1730 in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, married Hannah Nailor (Naylor) of Guy Meads in 1752. They moved from Wrightstown in 1774. Five children were born of this marriage - John, Thomas, Joseph, Mary and William. (Editor’s note: The LDS file shows Jane b. 1753, married to James Fisher, as one of these children.)

4. Thomas, the second of the five children, married Alice Phillips who gave him Suzannah, Rebecca, John, Cephas Phillips, Charles and Abigail.

5. Cephas P., born August 10, 1793, was married to Rebecca Dial in Clermont County, Ohio on October 31, 1819. Cephas purchased land and began farming and brick making.

Five of his nine children were born here. John D. born 5-26-1821, Martha born 2-13-1823, David born 1-19-1825, Joseph born 3-3-1827, and Jane born 4-30-1829.

In 1830, Cephas Atkinson and his family moved to Clinton County, Ohio where four more children were born - Cephas born 8-16-1831, Shadrach born 1-9-1834, Rebecca E. born 9-11-1836, and Deborah born 11-9-1839.

In the spring of 1853, the family moved again - this time to Indiana and Grant County. Cephas Atkinson remained there in Monroe township until his death May 1, 1862.

The Thornton/Blackmon Family

The appendix to this book includes relationships and data about the following individuals and many others of the Thornton/Blackmon family lines. These few notes were made in the 1960’s from family interviews. Also see the Preface, page vi.

Willis Robert Blackmon
He came to Texas at age 8 when his family moved to Houston County near Hagerville. His family moved to Barry in Navarro County in 1895. He was a Primitive Baptist preacher. The inscription on his tombstone reads "He lived what he preached, A Workman not ashamed."

Robert Nathanial Hodge
Died while visiting in Stamford, Jones county, Texas.

Wife of Robert Nathanial Hodge
Had red hair and died two or three years after daughter Phoebe Caroline was born at Brownsboro, Texas, in Henderson County in 1889.

Thomas Thornton
There were born to them seven children - four boys and three girls. Moved to Georgia in 1819 with family and lived there until his death in 1875.

Josiah B. Thornton
Born in Virginia, Louisa County, he was the grandfather of Isaac Thornton and lived to be 105 years old. He died in 1849 after raising twelve children - six boys and six girls.

Janice Gayle Thornton
Janice Gayle Thornton Fisher was born at New Hope, Freestone County, Texas, December 10, 1938. Married Jackie L. Fisher at the Thornton home in Pt. Enterprise, near Mexia, Texas, in Limestone County, August 14, 1959. They were married by Janice's maternal grandfather, Primitive Baptist Elder W. R. Blackmon.

Proof of the Lineage

Our Fisher ancestry is proven in the following way:

1. Grandfather F. C. Fisher Sr. (1886) gave us first-hand remembrances of his father Samuel Fisher (1857) and his grandfather Cephas A. Fisher (1812) of Henry County, Iowa. Census records (and Cephas’ death certificate) clearly verify that Cephas was Samuel’s father and F. C. Sr.’s grandfather. Additional confirmation is in Joan C. Boem’s “Clinton County, Indiana History and Genealogical Sketches,” Evangel Press, 1989.

2. A “History of Clinton County, Ohio”, published in 1882 by W. H. Beers & Co. (Chicago), establishes Cephas Fisher of Henry County, Iowa as the son of Cephas Fisher Sr. (1780, b. Pennsylvania), and grandson of James Fisher Jr. (1744, b. Pennsylvania). The old home places for these Fishers and their families lie around Lees Creek, near New Vienna, Ohio. Tax records of 1840 list the father and son as Cephas Sr. and Cephas Jr. We have found vital statistics on these families in the Quaker Monthly Meeting records and county cemetery records of Highland and Clinton Counties, Ohio. Pauline Leslie first discovered this descendancy and documented it during a long illness in her 1960 book, “Families of Fisher, Durnell, Littler, and Zimmerman .” Thelma Lucille Fisher’s book, “Atkinson - Fisher English Quaker Emigrants with William Penn”, Cox Printing Company, 1978, also includes this genealogy, and adds results of further research. We have independently checked the Quaker records, which prove the lineage back to Thomas Fisher, who married Elizabeth Huntley in 1713. (See other sources, in “References.”)

3. The computerized Mormon Ancestral File equates Thomas Fisher, husband of Elizabeth Huntley, with Thomas, the son of the well-known John Fisher and Margaret Hindle who emigrated in 1682. The file lists Elizabeth as the second wife of Thomas, after Margery Maud. This is now known to be in error. The Thelma Fisher book includes the same error. We have obtained the detailed family histories of William Logan Fisher (published 1839) and Anna Wharton Smith (published 1896), who were descendants of John and Margaret Fisher, of Sussex County (Now part of Delaware.) It is clear from these sources (note Smith, Appendix), and the court records of Sussex County, that our ancestor, Thomas Fisher of Chester County, was not Thomas, son of John and Margaret. The existing records do contain some indirect evidence to support the possibility of some kind of relationship to John and Margaret Fisher (See the text, part III.)

It appears most probable that Thomas Fisher, our ancestor, was the son of John and Barbara Fisher, of Chichester Township, Chester County, Pennsylvania, but this should not be considered proven based upon our research to date. (See the text, part III.)

4. Notes about some of these Fishers are found in “The Fisher Family”, American Genealogical Research Institute, Arlington Va., Library of Congress 72-87488, including a record of James Fisher (1744) serving in the American Revolution, confirming his date of birth and death and his marriage to Jane Atkinson; and the emigration of John Fisher in 1682.
