This is an archived posting from Jackson Co. KS which refers to a court document listing father as Mortimer Adelbert Fish. I've also seen a Worldconnect posting listing father as Mortimer Arthur fish. Is anyone researching this family?



Would like to hear from or about descendants of
Mortimer Adelbert Fish and wife Julia T. Shutt.They
were married in DeKalb County, Illinois 21 Aug. 1865
and divorced in Jackson County, Kansas in 1889. Court
records state they had the following thirteen
children:
Mortimer, Thomas R., Arvilla M., Margaret M., Burton
T., Eda A., James, Nella L., Fredi(?) L., Ina E.,
Clyde W., Pearl L., and Ciolis(?).

It further refers to Eda 15, Clyde 7 and Pearl 4 as
living minor children awarded to the custody of their
mother. Two unnamed children are buried in the
Circleville cemetery and I have some information on
the son Mortimer. Pearl was the only child mentioned
in his father's will. Mortimer A.'s obituary says he
had 5 children, obviously an error. That leaves 4
children unaccounted for. Can anyone help?
