I agree with you that the naming patterns for the children of James Fisher and Susan Cloyd point to Susan being close kin of Joseph and Elizabeth Cloyd, probably their daughter. You would have Elizabeth and Joseph after Susan's parents, Hannah and Sophia at a minimum after her sisters, and Charles after her brother-in-law. There might be additional overlaps as well that we just don't recognize. The area was not exactly overrun with Cloyd families as most of them seem to have gone south from Pennsylvania by then.
