Thomas (137) Fisher1
M, b. circa 1734, d. before 7 January 1790
| Birth* | circa 1734 | Thomas was born circa 1734 at Northampton Co, VA. His marriage record shows he had consent from his mother, implying he was under age 21. This and the fact that he chose his own guardian in 1751 (meaning he was age 14 or over), would put his birth between 1734 and 1737..2,3 |
| Will - GrFath's* | 21 February 1743 | Thomas was named in his grandfather's will on 21 February 1743 at Northampton Co, VA. It was on this date that he was named in his grandfather John Dolby's will..4 |
| Will - Father's* | 8 January 1750 | Thomas was named in his father's will on 8 January 1750 at Northampton Co, VA.5 |
| Anecdote | 13 August 1751 | On 13 Aug 1751 Thomas Fisher chose Susannah Fisher as his guardian.6 |
| Was Living | August 1751 | Thomas was living in August 1751 at Northampton Co, VA. It was on this date that Thos, orphan of Maddo. Fisher chose his own guardian. He would have had to have been age 14 or older in order to chose his own guardian. (This did not imply that he was exactly age 14.)3 |
| Marriage* | 1 August 1754 | He married Sarah Smith, daughter of William Smith, on 1 August 1754 at Northampton Co, VA. William Major was the security on the M.L.B. of Thomas Fisher and Sarah Turner, widow of George Turner. Thomas and Susanna Knight gave consent for her son Thomas. Littleton Savage, Thomas Dunn and Peggy Major were witnesses..2 |
| Anecdote* | | When Thomas Fisher secured an Act, 1769, to break the entail on 405 acres it was stated the land had descended to him from his father Maddox Fisher, grandfather John Fisher and great-grandfather Philip Fisher. Whitelaw, p. 460, makes it clear this land was the inheritance of Philip's son Thomas, and not his son John. The Thomas Fisher who broke the entail obviously erred regarding the name of his grandfather. The available records and the laws governing the inheritance of entailed land further require the conclusion that there were two generations, not one, between Thomas Fisher (s/o Philip) and the Thomas who broke the entail and that Maddox Fisher (father of the latter Thomas), who married Susanna Dolby and left will, 8 Jan 1749/50-13 Mar 1749/50 (N'hamp Co Wills & Inventories, 1740-50, p. 440), was son of Maddox Fisher (wife Sarah) (Adventurers of Purse and Person, p. 282).7 |
| Land sold* | 1784 | Thomas sold land in 1784 at Accomack Co, VA. It was after selling land to Thomas Fitchett at this time, that Thomas and Sarah Fisher moved to Isle of Wright County..8 |

To my son Fairfax John Thoroughgood Fisher my Negroes Abe and Peter. To my son Thomas George Washington Fisher my Negroes Leah and her child and my gun, sword and pistols. To my grandson James Fisher my Negro Judah. To my son William Fisher one shilling. My son Teackle Fisher to be sole Executor..9,10 |
| Death* | before 7 January 1790 | Thomas died before 7 January 1790 at Isle of Wight Co, VA. It was on this date that his will was proved..9 |

In his will Thomas Dalby Sr. gave to wife Catherine the use of all my lands during her life and then the use of my bayside land to Thomas Parramore during his life. My bayside plantation to the children of my granddaughter Esther Parramore. To my three nephews and niece John Fisher, Thomas Fisher, Esme Fisher and Rosanna Deshield the plantation whereon I now live after my wife's death. (The nephews and niece were the children of his sister Susanna.) Wife Catharine and friend Mathew Harmanson extrs. Witt: William Harmanson, Isaac Dalby, Thomas Gleeson.11 |
| Anecdote* | 27 February 1796 | It was on this date that he was named as a nephew in the will of Thomas Dalby Sr. of Northampton Co. (Evidently Thomas Dalby did not know his nephew had died, or we have mistaken the Thomas Fisher who died in 1789).12 |
