Message Board Post:
Thanks for the tip. I'll have to check out the Indiana Room (again!) when time
allows. There are really great folks working in that library and have helped me out on
other areas of the family tree before.
It's really an interesting area. I had a very helpful person in the New England area
also provide me information on another Samuel P. Fisher born to an Edward William Fisher
of Cincinnati. This Fisher line comes from the New York state and Boston areas and goes
all the way back to the early 1600's.
What's really confusing is Samuel P. shows conflicting data for his census
information. In 1930, it shows New York as his birth state. In 1900, it shows Indiana.
All I know is there was a Samuel P. Fisher born to James Fisher of Decatur County, Indiana
in 1873, and a Samuel P. Fisher born to an Edward William Fisher of Richford, New York in
1875. Samuel's marker at Cedar Hill in Corydon shows an 1875 birth year, so I can
only assume the line from Edward William Fisher is probably correct.
