    MARRIAGE: HUNT, LUCY and FISH, BETHNEL vol.0004 pg.0107

    SOURCE_OF_NAME: Ebenezer Foster's book ("Early Days of the Pioneers") addendum lists Bethuel's wife's name as Lucy Briggs. Not sure if this means that HUNT is a married name, or that BRIGGS is. From the marriage license application it appears that if she was married before, then HUNT would be the married name and BRIGGS her maiden name.

    The 1860 census shows Bethuel Fish with wife, Lucy, their children and Charles Hunt (age 45). Bethuel's brother, William, is also living at the same house.

Generation: 4
  1. Ebenezer FISH, Sr. b. 1757, Groton, New London, Connecticut; d. 4 Sep 1827, Brooklyn Village, Cuyahoga, Ohio, USA.

    Notes:
    In the fall of 1811, James FISH, his wife, two children, Mrs. STANTON, his wife's mother, and Moses FISH, his cousin, moved in an ox team to Ohio and stopped at Newburg. Brooklyn at this time was a wild forest full of the red man, the township had been surveyed and run into quarter sections by agents who lived in Connecticut. James and Moses FISH thought they would look at these lands. James selected a good piece and Moses selected a quarter section. James built a log cabin and his family moved into it, but becoming frightened by Indians, went back to Newburg. Other families coming, they moved again to Brooklyn. Moses wrote to his brother Ebenezer, in Connecticut, to come and take one-half his land, which he did. A road (now Denison avenue) was run from Newburg to Rockport, which divided the property of the FISHES. They built a log cabin, in which they lived till the war of 1812. Ebenezer enlisted for six months and came out with honors. Afterward Moses was drafted. His health being poor, Ebenezer took his place and served the remainder of the war. He went back to Connecticut, married Miss Johanna STANTON, a smart, worthy woman who, on hearing of his Ohio farm, proposed moving there. Accordingly in 1818, with their two children, Eliza and Emily (afterwards Mrs. CORBIN and Mrs. BOOTH), his two brothers, and their families came in a large wagon drawn by two yoke of oxen. They all built and lived in log cabins.

    Two other children were born to Mr. and Mrs. Ebenezer FISH, Johanna (now Mrs. FOWLS), and John Moses married Miss BRAINERD. They endured hardships and discomforts long before enjoying the ordinary pleasures of existence. Fever and ague also added to the trials of the first settlers. Ebenezer was ninety-three when he died.
    ----"Memorial To The Pioneer Women Of The Western Reserve"

    Ebenezer and Moses Fish, who came with James from the East, settled upon 80 acres of land in Brooklyn, in 1812. Ebenezer located on the north side of what is now Denison Avenue and Moses on the south side. Neither was then married.
