Note: on the New York Passenger List for Edward Fish, it list him as a Weaver. In the 1880
Census when he is living with daughter Jane Dickensheets he is listed as a Weaver.
I also found that Edward Fish was naturalized in Shelby County, Ohio. You should be able
to get these records and it will listed birth, place of birth, parents names and sometimes
more.
