'Geneology of Fischer Family'
We can date back to 1800 to Bernhardt Fischer who was born and died in Gemany. He was married to Christina Hardman, also of Gemany. They were shopkeepers in Calla S.E. Germany We believe from a tin type picture taken in Gemany and brought to Canada by Grandfather Fischer that there wwere three children, a son Joheim Wilhelm Frederick Fischer and two daughters. Catherine who married in Germany and another daughter who was a dwarf. Joheim W.F. Fischer served in the army at Altenburg, Germany from 1850-1854,when he received his discharge. He came directly to Canada.
About the same time another family from Wurthmberg, Germany also sailed for Canada. Their names were Jacob Vogt, his wife Elizabeth Louber Vogt, two sons
Peter and John and two daughters - Catherine and another who was married to a Brickles. When they arrived at Canada, Peter was not allowed to enter being a cripple, so the Brickles changed their palns and taking Peter with them settled in one of our Eastern States (USA).
Joheim W.F. Fischer met and married Catherine Vogt September 5, 1855. They settled in South Middleton where they cleared their land, Lot 13, Concession #2, and built their home. The original house burned in 1930.
