During his life time, David researched the history of several Decatur and Henderson County families. His research provides important basic research on the history of families that now live or have lived in these two counties. Like all research, it is not perfect and is known to contain both errors and omissions. By policy, David's original research will not be updated to correct these errors but will be maintained in the state left by David. However, we are happy to publish the family research of any families connected with Decatur or Henderson County. We will also publish comments as notes to David's research.

[1] Fisher Ancestor. From "A Fisher Scrap Book 1730-1972" by William L. Jones: "The compiler of this book readily admits that he has not searched the records of the Valley of Virginia and has made no attempt at finding church and court records of Pennsylvania, but for all that it is worth he will hazard this guess: Frederick, Sr., Charles, Jacob, and Martin Fisher were brothers who came from Shenandoah County, Va. to Rowan County, N.C. prior to 1764, and since we are just guessing I am lead to believe that they all lived in either Bucks or Lancaster, Pennsylvania, before arriving in Shenandoah County. I am guided in this belief by many articles and historical records concerning the flow of German immigrants from Pennsylvania down through the Valley and into North carolina. In other genealogies of North Carolina Fishers they invariably are traced back to Pennsylvania and immigrated from the Palitinate of Germany to Pennsylvania and New York, with a few coming directly to Virginia."
