    Samuel Fisher, s/o Thomas Fisher, b. England, d. Wrentham 5 Jan 1703, m. Boston 22 Mar 1659 Melatiah Snow.

  3. ↑ Source:Anderson, Robert Charles. Great Migration: Immigrants to New England, 1634-1635, Vol. 11 (C-F), p. 531, assumes that since Thomas and Elizabeth were married 1629, and son John bp. 1632, that Samuel must have been born in New England about 1634. Hill assumes Samuel was the "Samuell Fisher" who signed the Dedham convenant, of about 1637, that is printed at the front of the Dedham Towne Book Source:Dedham, Norfolk, Massachusetts, United States. Early Records of the Town of Dedham, Massachusetts, Vol. 3, p. 3). If this was true, he would need to have been born about 1616, i.e., born in England to an earlier wife, or even a brother. Given his death in 1704 and the age of his wife, this seems unlikely. Like Anderson, Source:Holman, Mary Lovering. Scott Genealogy, p. 198, says about Thomas' children: "said by some authorities to have come from England with their parents, but probably born here".
