Note from the HISTORY OF THE MOHAWK VALLEY - Pg 90:
"In 1791 Walter Fish came into the Mohawk valley from Bozrah, Connecticut,
and settled on the German Flats, which later took on the name of Herkimer. This
Walter Fish was a bridge builder and had come here to superintend the construction
of heavily timbered covered bridges at certain points across the Mohawk river, and he
thus became one of the real pioneers of what has developed into the flourishing and
progressive city of Herkimer. In 1793 Walter Fish was married to Jane Whitney'
who had come here with her parents from Petersham, Massachusetts, and established their home at Herkimer."
