Listed with him were Susan Fisher, age 50 and John Fisher, a 19 year old farm laborer.5 |
Death* | 25 February 1877 | Kendall died on 25 February 1877 at Accomack Co, VA, at age 66. His death records shows his death on 1 Mar 1877 in Acc Parish. The cause of death was "lung" and he was a 75 year old farmer, the child of Tully and Susan, born in Acc Co, the husband of Susan. His brother Abednego Fisher gave the information. This would have put his birth at 1802, but he was only 40 in the 1850 census, making his birth circa 1810, which is more logical since his father Tully married Hessy Bird in 1809. Another concern is the naming of his mother as Susan and Abednego as his brother, since Abednego was his son..2 |
Burial* | | His body was interred at Fisher Plot, Mappsville, Acc Co, VA.2 |
