Individuals : Fisher Anthony
ANTHONY FISHER... was baptized 1 February 1558/9 at Stradbroke, and he was buried 11 April 1640 at Syleham. He married at Fressingfield, 16 October 1586, MARIE FISKE, daughter of Nicholas and Johane (Crispe) Fiske of Laxfield and Dennington. Some of Marie’s ancestry will be presented by Clifford L. Stott in The Crispe Family of Laxfield, Suffolk; Ancestors of Anthony and Joshua Fisher of Dedham, Massachusetts,” forthcoming in the Register.

Anthony was named in various wills. In 1591 his father William mentioned that he had already given land to Anthony, and that other lands, in Syleham (among them Wignotts), should be Anthony’s after his mother’s death. Anthony’s brother William, in 1618, named Anthony and his children. Anthony and Mary’s son John in 1636 gave annuities to his parents, as did their son Cornelius in 1638. After Anthony’s death his widow Mary was appointed administratrix of his estate, 19 Apri 1640.

“ANTHONY FISHER...was baptized 23 April 1591 at Syleham. “Mr. Anthony Fisher Departed out of this Life in the 80th year of his age (April 18) 1671” at Dorchester, Massachusetts. He married first, about 1615, ALICE _____, who joined the Dedham Church 27 March 1642, listed as “___ Fisher ye wife of Anthony Fisher,” and died 12 January 1662/3. Anthony married second, at Dorchester, 14 November 1663, ISABEL (---) (RIGBY) BRECK, widow of both John Rigby and Edward Breck, both of Dorchester. Isabel died at Dorchester 22 June 1673.
Anthony Fisher was at Syleham until at least 1623. In Denton, Norfolk, about six miles from Syleham, in 1626 and 1629, the baptisms of two children of Anthony and Alice were recorded. In March 1636, according to the will of his brother John, he was still living in Denton.
Anthony arrived in New England probably in 1637 The first record of him in the colonies is 18 July 1637, when “Mr. John Allen wth diurse others being p’pownded to sit downe wth vs onely in the same condicon. they are accepted soe to doe...” The names of the “diverse others,” including Anthony Fisher, appear in a list two paragraphs farther on that names twelve heads of families admitted to Dedham on the same date. These twelve produced “crtifficates from ye magestrates” showing that they had subscribed to the covenants of the town. Anthony Fisher was active in Dedham town activities, and then eventually moved to Dorchester, Massachusetts, where he continued public service.

Individuals : Fisher John William
WILLIAM FISHER...was born say 1527, likely at Syleham, Suffolk. As revealed by the contents of his 1591 will, William was among the privileged few of his contemporaries to learn to read and write. Also, he had armor, indicating military activity. This service was probably of a local nature, and his armor was most likely made of leather. Or perhaps he inherited the armor, which might have been rather elaborate.
the armor, which might have been rather elaborate.
On 15 October 1551 he was married, in the church of the neighboring parish of Stradbroke, to MARGERIE BERT, a Stradbroke maiden, the daughter of William Bert...
William Fisher prospered as a yeoman farmer, retaining property in Syleham that he had inherited. Exactly where he and Margerie resided during their early marriage is unknown, though likely within the parish of Stradbroke. The parish churches of Syleham and Stradbroke are about three miles apart, but the boundaries of the two parishes are much closer, the in-between being a walk of gentle ups and downs across part of the parish of Wingfield. Perhaps the Fisher home was near the boundary of one of the parishes. William and Margerie took some of their children to each church for baptism: Stradbroke in 1553, Syleham in 1556, and then Stradbroke again in 1559 (apparently with twins) and 1560. One little girl, almost four years of age, was buried in the Stradbroke churchyard in 1563.

As time passed, William purchased (according to his will) properties in Cransford, nine miles southeast of Stradbroke, and in Swefling, two and a half miles beyond Cransford. Whether or not he and Margerie lived for a period in either of these places is unknown. Eventually they moved to the parish of St. James South Elmham, seven miles northeast from Stradbroke, still in county Suffolk.

In St. James South Elmham, William wrote his own last will and testament, “scripte by me Will’m Fisher,” 14 June 1591. He died less than two months later, as the will was probated 9 August 1591. Because the surviving parish registers of St. James South Elmham start many years after William and Margerie died, it is impossible to find records of their burials.
urviving
William’s will indicates that within the yeoman class of English citizens he was probably more akin to a gentleman than to a husbandman. He named no horses or cows or sheep or wheat or barley, the items so commonly counted as a portion of wealth by yeomen. In his will, though, he did name “implements.” Perhaps animals o work or graze his land were owned by the men to whom he rented the several estates he held.
In his will William provided his “welbeloved wiffe” Margerie, for life, “all my free holde landes and Ten’tes and Indenture or lease lande lyinge and beinge in Sarlehame [Syleham],” without naming them. (One of them Wignott[s], was bequeathed iin 1638 by Wiliam’s grandson, Cornelius Fisher... William directed that after his wife’s decease these properties should go to their son Anthony. In addition, Anthony was to receive “all suche moveable goods as are in his custodie and possession excepte one posted bedstede wch I boughte at Witchingham hall one fetherbedde and one coveringe[,] wch fetherbedde posted bedsteade and coveringe I give unto Margery my wiffe.” Also, “the rest of the Evidence concerninge the landes before devised to Anthonye my sonne I will that they shoulde be delyvered to him” (referring probably to the Syleham lands, mentioned earlier in the will).

Another genealogically significant item in William’s will is his bequest to “Anne Forder my sister” of 40s. “Rose Forder her daughter” was to receive 26s 8d at her day of marriage.
William gave token legacies to his grandchildren as well, naming them as “my dawghter Joannes thre sonnes...and...their sister,” “my sonne Will’m Fishers dawghter,” “my sonne Anthonye Fishers two sonnes...and their sister,” and”my dawghter Janes sonne ... and...his sister..and the childe or children that my saide dawghter Jane is now bigge with all [if] god give her saffe delyverie.” In another part of the will William named Jane’s son: “Cornelius the sonne of Francys Wolnaughe.

This document indicates that John Fisher and Christian his wife received Chickering in 1514, but afterwards they, or probably an assignee, lost it. That John’s wife is mentioned in the transaction likely means that she, rather than he, inherited it or in some way had rights to it. In Manors of Suffolk and Wifgield: Its Church, Castle, and College, no mention is made of John Fisher in connection with Chickering Hall or Manor. John had holdings in Chickering Hall when he write his will, and less than two months elapsed between the date and probate of this will, so he probably did not lose Chickering in that period.

The Jamesons were settled at an early day on Moorman’s River, both above and below Whitehall. John Jameson took out a patent for land on the north side of that stream in 1741, and Samuel, his brother or son, on the branches of Spring Creek in 1747. In 1765 Samuel purchased the land in the old Woods Gap from Archibald Woods, who had entered it in 1756. His son Alexander sold it in 1809 to David Stephenson of Augusta. Samuel died in 1788. He and his wife Jean had nine children, four of whom were Alexander, Thomas John and Samuel. Samuel Jr., died about 1805. His wife’s name was Margaret, and his children were Hannah, the wife of William Harris, Jane, the wife of William Maupin, Elizabeth, the wife of a Harris, Catharine, the wife of Nathan Mills, Mary, the wife of Nehemiah Birckhead, William and Samuel. Some of the sons of this family were mighty hunters, as is manifest from their frequent reports of wolf scalps to the County Court.

It is supposed that Thomas Jameson, who was a physician in busy practice in Charlottesville the early part of the century, was a scion of this stock. In 1806 he lived on the lot on which the family of J. J. Conner resides at present, and which he purchased from William G. Garner. In one of his conveyances it is described as being “on the upper street leading out to Jameson’s Gap,” that being evidently the name of what is now called Turk’s Gap. He married Evalina, daughter of William Alcock, and sister of the second wife of John Kelly. In 1815 he sold his residence to Mr. Kelly, and it is believed emigrated to the West.

(My notes: He and h is brother John escaped April 5, 1758 by hiding in the barn or in a log and ran to Virginia to their maternal grandparents's farm, Matthew and Elizabeth Erwin , born in Ireland.) He was twice married, the second time on April 10, 1788, to Rachel McCollock. His known children were as follows: Thomas Jr., Mary (Polly) , Frances (Fannis) who married a Cooper, Clarrissa, Jeremiah, Hugh Black, Eliza beth, Sarah (Sally), and Henry D. Fought in Revolutionary War.
Thomas Jamiso n served in the Illinois Regulars under George R. Clark. He was Sgt. Thomas Jam ison. Served 1/12/1779-5/28/1780
Attala County descendents include Misses Ma bel and Ollie Frances Jamison, Elizabeth Cooper of Attala County and Houston, T exas. There are also a number of descendants in Leake County.
It is interes ting to note that his descendants were among the first settlers of this area, c oming in a 16-family wagon train down the Natches Trace. The leaders of this gr oup had fought with Andrew Jackson in the Battle of 1812, had returned to Tenne ssee and Kentucky by way of the Natches Trace, liked the looks of the country h ere, and came back to settle.
Thomas Jamison fought in the Revolutionary War , hence DAR membership.
My notes: Thomas and Rachel were the parents of Hugh Black Jamison, who was father of William Hugh, grandfather of Mansy, great gra ndfather of Woodson, great, great grandfather of Willie Mack, great, great, gre at grandfather of Betty Jamison Swann. Thomas Jamison would have been Betty's 4 G grandfather.
