Jonathan & Hannah (Dare) Fish

Link to the Fish Families in Indiana : c/o Fish Families in IN

The Last Will in NJ of our Hannah Dare (1743-1783) where
her brothers David and Rinear Dare are listed as the Executors and
George Pierson (her sister Phebe's husband) and John Fish are two of the
witnesses.  We believe John Fish is the younger brother of Hannah's late
husband, Samuel Fish (1737-1772).  We also have the estate records of
Samuel from 1772 wherein the Administratrix is widow Hannah Fish with
bondsman George Pierson of Stow Creek.

Both found in: NJ Index of Wills 1705-1804, Vol I, pg 67, Will 25-414.
R929.3-N5Zn.

The following children are listed in Hannah's will: 
Daughter: Joannah - given the best bed
Son: Jonathan Fish - my house & 2 acres of land when he is 21
Daughter: Sarah Fish - various goods when 18

We haven't found anything on the daughters yet but we have located the
Last Will of Jonathan from 1845 in Indiana wherein his children are named:

Jonathan Fish b: abt 1770, (Deerfield, Cumberland Co., NJ), d: 10 Jan
1846, Jay County, IN married Elizabeth Graham (abt 1774- aft 1850) in 1797 in NJ, had the
following children:
