      by CutterGenealogyLibrary.com Page 320 FISHER Anthony Fisher, the first of this surname of whom there is definite record, lived in the latter part of the reign of Queen Elizabeth in the parish of Syleham, county Suffolk, England, on the south bank of the Waveney river, on a freehold estate called "Wignotte". He married Mary, daughter of William and Anne Fiske, of St. James, South Elmasham, county Suffolk, England. The Fiske family was an old Puritan family of that county which had suffered during the religious persecutions of Queen Mary's reign. Anthony Fisher was buried April 11, 1640. Children; Joshua, baptized February 24, 1585; Mary. twin sister of Joshua; Anthony, mentioned below; Amos. married Anne Morrise, widow of Daniel Locke; Rev. Cornelius. baptized August 6, 1599; Martha, married John Buckingham. of Syleham, England. New England Genealogical And Historical Register, April, 1997, English Ancestry of Joshua and Anthony Fisher, p. 178Anthony 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 Johan (Crispe) Fiske of Laxfield and Dennington. 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 April 1640.[With this discrepant information who are the parents of Mary/Marie Fiske? Are they William and Anne Fiske or Nicholas and Johan (Crispe) Fiske?]

      3. Anthony2, son of Anthony (1), of Syleham, County Suffolk, England, was baptized there April 23, 1591 ; came to New England with his first wife Mary and children, probably from Yarmouth in the shipRose, arriving in Boston, June 26, 1637, and settled in Dedham. He subscribed to the Dedham Covenant, July 18, 1637. Jan. 1, 1638, he was one of the committee " Choesen to contriue the Fabricke of a Meetinghouse to be in length 36 Foote & 20 : foote in bredth, & betweene the vpp & nether sell in y* studds 12 : foote, the same to be girte and to order men to worke vpon the same in all workes as they are seu'ally apted accordingly." On July 28, 1638, he was assigned his houselot: "Anthony Fisher twelve Acres more or lesse made vp good by an inlargm'" Rune in amongst the Rockes, & for woode & timb' as it lyeth betweene Mr John Allin through out towards the South & Thomas Wighte through out towards the North. And abutts vpon the Waest towards the East & the Waest in the Rockes towards the West the limitts marked & dooled accordingly. / The highwaye leading towards the Ragged playne runing through the Same :/ And a certaine pcell of ground allowed out of the first line vnto / the Said Thomas Wight for a seat /(f of an house, a yearde Roome & Easement of water at the Brook as it is set out ther." (Lands Granted vnto Sundry men, p. 5 of Book 2 of Dedham Town Records). His meadow was assigned " The 28th of y* 5* Month (July) 1638 " : "Assigned vnto ...... Anthony Fisher - 7 a": - : 20 TM. as it lyeth next Tho: Fisher," between Thomas Fisher and Thomas Wight. " The 27* October being ?*8t h Month. 1640 .....

' ' This was east of the highway leading from Dedham to Medfield. He received six acres of plowing land " on the South playne, " March 1 6, 1640-41 ; purchased the right of four acres of uplandof Ralph Wheelock, Nov. 25, 1642 ; was granted four acres of plow land on Feb. 6, 1642-43, and eight acres of woodland, Feb. 4, 1644-45. He bought a farm of 150 acres, a houselot and other lands in Dedham, of the estate of Samuel Cooke, of Dublin, Oct. 19, 1652.By the attorney, William Parks, of Roxbury, it is described as follows, viz.: " Abutting at the back of the Rock's toward's the west, & the Meadow lying beneath the Same toward's the North, next Charles River, as i' lyeth by saide River abutted & bounded betwixt a little brooke & certain Rock's. Item. One house lott containing twelve Acres of upland more or less as " Lyeth in the Smoothe Plaine in Dedham aforesaide, betwixt the house lott of Daniell ffisher toward's the East & the highway toward's the North & west & the Rock's toward's the South ' ' ; also six acres in Rosemary Meadow ; Upland between the way to the meadows and Eleazer Lusher ; twelve acres in the Broad Meadow ; six and a half acres, one half rood, of woodland ; four acres in Cedar Swamp ; one half part of ten acres, three roods, in the Great Plain ; and six acres in Rosemary Meadow; for which he gave ¿67 14s. " This lot, I should think from the description given, and the lot of Daniel Fisher, known to be the estate of Mrs. Rodman, on Lowder Street, are located on the easterly side of the Hartford Turnpike, principally the northeasterly angle of said turnpike and Lowder Street." Eleazer Lusher probably bought a large interest in this property, from the following :In ans' to the petition of Willjam Parks, of Roxbury, and of Anthony Fisher, of Dedham, and Eleazer Lusher, craving this Courts conaru1- atjon of certajne lands, sold to y" peticoners Lusher & Fisher, by Wm Parks aforesaid, attourney to Sanmell Cooke, of Dublin, in Ireland, gent, deceased, by order & power by letter of attourney front the sajd Cooke, the Court graunts their request, allowes of and continues the sale of the sajd Parks of y* sajd Cooks lands in Dedham to the sajd Lusher & Fisher.

He was made a freeman, May, 1645 ; was chosen Selectman of Dedham ("to act in town affaires") in 1646 and 1647, County Commissioner Sept. 3, 1660, and a Deputy to the General Court, May 2, 1649; was Woodreeve in 1653, 1654, 1655, 1657, 1658, 1661 and 1662. From a minute in the handwriting of Eleazer Lusher, bearing date March 9, 1652, we would infer that Anthony gave the bulk of his property to his sons and they bound themselves to support their mother, if she were left dependent. " A Bond to make from Daniell, Antho: Natha: & Cornell : Fisher, to their mother, to paye tenn £ per am1 : at 2£. 10s. the quarter ofthe yeare in paymt to her h1st content. dureing her naturall life. after their Father's decease. ' ' About this time the following agreement was made: " Clna- than Dunckley is according to ye Court order in that case provided. placed in seruice for one whole yeare next ensueing to dwell wth Anthoney Fisher senior, and the said Anthoncy Fisher doth couenant & agree to pay to the said Elnat ha n orhis assignes the summ of g£ for ye yeares seruice vizt 2,£. 5s. each quarter of ye yeare." Yet we find in the Dedham Records that his property was assessed on Feb. 20, 1656-7, at /n7 3s. We have beenunable to learn the date of the death of the wife Mary ; but he married again " the 14th of (9 mo:) 1663" (Nov. 14, 1663), Isabell, widow of Edward Breck of Dorchester (who had died Nov. 2, 1662), "she being by her first marriage the widow of John Rigbe1i, and probably the latter's second wife;" Anthony "being at the time of the marriage about 72 years of age." He was chosen commissioner, March 5, 1666, and selectman of Dorchester, Dec. 5, 1664, Dec. 4, 1665, and Dec. 3, 1666. He died at Dorchester ; " Mr Anthony Fisher Departed out of this Lüe in the 8ot h year of his age (April 18) 1671." His widow, " The Widow Fisher Departed this Life the 22d (mo: 4) called June, 1673."The inventory of his estate, showing only personal property in Dedham and Dorchester, was presented by Ensign Daniel Fisher, July 26, 1671, and an agreement for the distribution was made as follows :"July 26, 1672, We whose names are hereto written being ye sons and ye daughters of our kte deceased father Anthony Fisher, sometimes called ' of Dorchester,' deceased," etc., and signed by Daniel, Nathaniel, and Cornelius Fisher, Daniel Morse, and Joanna Fisher. " In Anthony Fisher we find an Englishman of strong, positive points of character, with liberal means for the times, of favorable consideration by his fellow-settlers as a citizen." (B. ?.

Son of Anthony Fisher, who, in the latter part of the reign of Queen Elizabeth, lived in England, in the parish of Syleham, county of Suffolk. His estate, known as Wignotte, was upon the south bank of the Waveney river. This Anthony Fisher died April 11, 1640. His will was probated in London in December, 1641. His wife was Mary, daughter of William Fiske* of the parish of South Elmham St. James, Suffolk co. The Fiskes were an old Puritan family of Suffolk, descended from Daniel Fisc, who received a grant of land from King John in 1208, through Symond Fiske of the manor of Stadhaugh in Suffolk.Anthony Fisher, the emigrant, was baptized at Syleham, Eng., April 23, 1591. He came to America with wife Mary, and children, probably in the "Rose," arriving at Boston, June 26, 1637. He settled at Dedham. His wife, Mary, was received into the Dedham church March 27, 1642, but Anthony was one of the men who did not bow promptly to the Puritan despotism. He proved very obstreperous. The minister and deacons had a great deal of trouble with him. He was " proud " and "haughty " and did not become sufficiently " humbled " to be " comfortably received into ye church " until March 11, 1645, when he was about 54 years of age, and, probably, as a necessary prelude to holding office. He was selectman at Dedham in 1646 and '47, Deputy in 1649, and held various other offices there. He was also selectman for several years at Dorchester. His wife, Mary, dying, he married (2) at Dorchester, Nov. 14, 1663, Isabel, widow of Edward Breck. He died at Dorchester, April 28, 1671. His widow, Isabel, diedJune 21, 1673.
