Facts and Events
Name Elizabeth S. Fisher
Gender Female
Birth[1] 20 Mar 1797 Lancaster, Pennsylvania, United States
Marriage 20 Nov 1816 Madison Co, ALto John Eckford
Death[1] 2 Mar 1887 Mineola, Wood, Texas, United States

She was living with daughter Martha in Columbus, MS in 1850, 1860, 1870 and with grand-daughter Matilda in Wood Co, Texas in 1880.

It is likely that her older sister is the Martha Meriwether who lived with her in 1860, 1870, 1880 and who married (1) Hunter and (2) on 4 Nov 1843 Maj. James Meriwether (1788-1852).

I have an unconfirmed report that her parents were Peter Fisher and Barabara Souder/Sounder (perhaps from Martha Jackson of Grand Junction, CO and/or Mrs. C. L. Dupree of 4414? Alta Vista Lane, Dallas, TX.)
