I found an Edward Fish age 58 and Hannah Fish age 62 on the 1860 Census Report in Orange
Township, Shelby County, Ohio. They had a daughter Margaret age 23. All three are listed
as born in England. Edward is listed as a Farmer with a person estate of $100.00. There is
a nearby family, on the same page, with the last name of Fish with Luke as the head from
England.
This family is also on the 1870 Census for Orange Township, Shelby Co., Ohio. Edward is
68, Hannah is 73 and Margaret is 33 and still at home. She is listed as Helps Mother.
Also, I found a Margaret Fish under the England Births and Christenings from 1538-1975. It
says: Margaret Fish, female, Christening Date: 8 Nov 1835, Place: St. Mary's,
Carlisle, Cumberland, England, Father's Name: Edward Fish, Mothers Name: Hannah Fish.
Is this the correct family? Do you know who Margaret married or if she every got married?
If you do, and know her husbands name, I might be able to help out more.
