This is to search the Fish Family, the earliest being my GGGGrandfather, Eleazer T. Fish, born 1800 in Hartford, Connecticut. The resulting families resided in New York, Cass and St. Joseph Counties in Michigan, the northeast area of Missouri, including Adair, Schuyler, and St. Louis Counties.
This family may be linked to Prussian origins rather than the well-documented English Fish descendants.This is making it very difficult to re-snag "the Fish that got away."
All allied families in my tree at the GGGrandparent level: Burtis, Bushey, Chase, Cook, Coonfield, Covert, Croxin, Ditmars, DuMont, Emley, Fish, Focht, Gano, Garretson, Hartshorn, Inman, Johnson, Lemunyon, May, Oppie, Quick, Sanders, Shinn, Shoop, Snyder, Stains, Van Arsdalen, Warren, Whitenack, Winkler, and Wyckoff.All these individuals were born in the United States (years 1762-1820) and some are DAR/SAR registered.There are also connections to Mayflower and U.S. Presidents.
