Fisher Family Tree
Tracing the Roots of Thomas Joseph Fisher
Note: This first generation is not substantiated in writing but only in
      oral tradition. From this and earlier letters to Germany, it is
      "assumed" that the Baron was a prominent person with much wealth
      and property, but ... as the story goes ... he shot one of the
      King's deer and was exiled from the country, forfeiting all his
      wealth and property.  It was also the custom for such exiles to
      have their names removed from any and all registers.
      
Baron Ludwig von Fischer
b. Jaeger Platz, Berlin, Germany (Bavaria) 
d. Staunton VA 1777
   Three sons:  William ?,   Joseph Clarence ?, and  Johannes Christofer
   They entered the U.S. in 1775
   
   The above has many versions.  There is a Baron Ludwig von Fischer burried somewhere
   in Virginia but I was never able to acquire the location and visit the site.  Those 
   that gave me that information are no longer living.  (1980 notation)
