==My Family History== |
|
|
|
|
|
Jacob Fischer Sr. (c1739-1826) is my oldest known ancestor. Most likely from the ], it is thought he immigrated to Pennsylvania in 1753. Since he was only 14, he was not on any ship's passenger lists, so the following are some of his possible fathers: |
|
|
|
|
|
# J. Freiderich (arrived in Philadelphia 8 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Hamburg & Cowes'' Ship: ''St. Michael'' |
|
|
# George (arrived in Philadelphia 11 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Hamburg & Cowes'' Ship: ''Queen of Denmark'' |
|
|
# Johann David (arrived in Philadelphia 11 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Hamburg & Cowes'' Ship: ''Queen of Denmark'' |
|
|
# Christopher (arrived in Philadelphia 11 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Hamburg & Cowes'' Ship: ''Queen of Denmark'' |
|
|
# Christian (arrived in Philadelphia 14 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Rotterdam & Portsmouth'' Ship: ''Edinburgh'' |
|
|
# Daniel from Lorraine (arrived in Philadelphia 14 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Rotterdam & Cowes'' Ship: ''Nancy'' |
|
|
# Ludwig (arrived in Philadelphia 26 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Rotterdam & Cowes'' Ship: ''Brothers'' |
|
|
# Hans Georg (arrived in Philadelphia 26 Sept, 1753) Route: ''Rotterdam & Cowes'' Ship: ''Brothers'' |

Jacob served in the 1. Battalion, 60th Regiment of Foot, ''the Royal American Regiment''. He received his discharge after serving as a Corporal for seven years and ten months, as he was severely wounded and deemed unfit for service. He fought in both the ] and ]. The Royal Americans were mainly tasked with defending the frontier forts of Pennsylvania. In his petition for land in Canada, Jacob stated he ''" assisted in the reduction of this Province."'' meaning he most likely served under Gen. Wolfe in the invasion of Quebec. |

During Pontiac's War, Corporal Fis(c)her was present at Fort Le Boeuf when it was attacked by ] and set alight. The fort Commander, Ensign Price, and his 14 men managed to escape through the rear window of the block house and marched towards ]. They marched 20 miles that night, and at first light realized they had walked in circles and could still see the smoke rising from Fort le Boeuf. During the night, the last six men in column had gotten lost. On 26 June, 1763 the remaining eight arrived at Fort Pitt, including Corporal Fisher. A couple of days later, four of the six men who had strayed arrived at the Fort as well, the other two men's fate is unknown. |

Corporal Fisher was absent from the ] as he was still recovering from the long trek from Fort Le Boeuf. He was discharged in October of 1764 because of his severe wounds, at what point he received his wounds is unclear, more than likely it was during October 1764 when Colonel Bouquet took an army of 1500 men into Indian Country to force a treaty. After his discharge, he settled in an area of Pennsylvania known then as "the Glades" for its 4-6' tall bluish grass (the area became known as Bruders Thal by the German settlers, and later Brothers Valley in English) |
