Descendants of

ISAAC FISHER and MARTHA GEE
  From Livingston County, New York to Tippecanoe County, Indiana
 
 



1-Isaac FISHER
, son of Comfort FISHER and Mary ANDREWS , was born on 8 May 1802 in Obid, Cayuga Co., NY, died on 25 Mar 1881 in Tippecanoe Co., IN, at age 78, and was buried in Pierce Cemetery, Tippecanoe Co., IN.

NOTE: It is thought that Comfort Fisher and Mary Andrews (daughter of Isaac Andrews) were the parents of Isaac Fisher - however it is unproven at this time.  It has been said by another researcher that Comfort Fisher left his family before 1820 and went to Illinois.  His children were taken care of by their grandfather, Isaac Andrews.

Below are some census records showing Comfort Fisher and Isaac Andrews in close proximity:

Comfort Fisher has been found in the following census records:

In 1850 he was living in Bond Co., IL, in the home of his daughter and son-in-law, Mabel and Henry Lynch.  His age was given as 77 and his birthplace was Vermont.   Children listed James Mathers,. Aaron Mathers, Mary Mathers, Kendall, Herman and Mary Andrews . Mary claimed support from Comforts war record.

A note regarding Mary Andrews from the GedCom file submitted to Rootsweb by (name is listed as unknown name) email address: leeds@athenet.net

"Polly Andrews, daughter of Isaac S. Haroot Cahoon Andrews, married Comfort Fisher in Connecticut about 1800. To them were born five children: one daughter who married George W. Miller, one married Frank Lynch, and one married a Messinger. A few months before the birth of the youngest child, Comfort Fisher left his family and went to Illinois where he served in the Civil War.

The youngest daughter married G. W. Miller in 1828 in New York State. They emigrated to Indiana and in 1852 came to Bond County with nine children, five sons and four daughters. Their farm was south of Woburn and Mr Miller, one son and one daughter are buried on the hill which overlooked the house they built.

Mrs. Miller had been reared by her grandfather, Isaac Andrews, who was a surveyor, she never saw her father, Comfort Fisher, until they had settled in Bond County.  Her husband, George Miller, heard he was living in Edwardsville, and he went there and brought him back with him to make his home. He died in 1853 the same month after his wife, and they are buried side by side in the Sutton Hasting graveyard."
