Enoch was born January 23, 1830, in Smith Co., TN. He was one of six children born to Cornelius Fisher, a native of North Caroline. His brothers and sisters were: Narcissia who married Thomas Nixon; James Harvey who married Rachael Winchester; Caroline who married Calvin W. Holly; Mary "Polly" who married John McGuffee and Franklin Pierce who was married to S. F. Kinnard, Margaret Elizabeth (Lowe) Kinnard, and Fannie Maxwell. Pierce was the postmaster for the town in which he lived and said town was named for his daughter, Bomar. The post office dropped the "r" from Bomar and the town was named Boma.
Enoch married Mary Caroline Null, daughter of Jacob and Jane Woven Null, February 19, 1854. They may have had one child, Sarah, but at the present I have been unable to find anything on her. I do know Mary was born December 15, 1830, and died December 23, 1856.
As the Civil War was raging, Enoch enlisted September 23, 1861, at or near Buffalo Valley, Putnam Co., TN in Shaw's Company, Co. F, 25th TN Regiment Infantry. He was listed on the roll at Fort Myers by Lt. A. B. Hardcastle, for a period of twelve months on May 10, 1862 he was elected 1st Lieutenant at Corrinth, Mississippi. While in the service he contracted cholera "flux" and a kidney disorder and was hospitalized in Chattanooga. On September 16, 1863, Enoch was discharged from the service due to the poor condition of his health.
After his discharge from the service, he returned to his home in Punch
(Watervale) to farm. In 1864 he married Elizabeth Malone, the daughter of Yancy and Rhoda Malone. To this union were born two children, Mary Lee who married Leonard Word and James Neal "Jim" who married Mary Ann Johnson.
Elizabeth died August 10, 1868.
On October 9, 1869, Enoch married Sarah Jane "Tumpie" Violett, the daughter of Chapman Romel and Jane Harriett Hazzard Violett, on her 20th birthday.
Sarah was born October 9, 1849 and died July 13, 1936. To this union were born six children: Joseph Chapman "Joe" who married Ludie M. Mofield; Amanda Jane "Mandy" who married Thomas Winfield Hailey; Susan Evelyn who married James Thomas Clark and Harrison Lee Douglas; Narcissia Pendexter "Dexter" who married John Wilson and John Silas Pope; Nancy Virginia "Nannie" was married Stephen Henry Hailey; and a baby boy who only lived two weeks.
Enoch and Sarah Jane made their home in Punch (Watervale). Most of Enoch's life was spent farming with the exception of his years in the service. He was able to read and write which was an accomplishment for the times as so many did not have the opportunity to get an education.
Enoch departed this life December 2, 1910, and was laid to rest in the cemetery on Burr Manning's place in Watervale. At the end of her life, Sarah Jane was laid to rest beside him.
