John Fish, the son of Thomas Fish and Mary (Sherman?) of Portsmouth, RI, was married c. 1690 to Joanna [Knowles? or Munson], b. c. 1670, d. 1744. They lived in Portsmouth, RI and nearby Dartmouth, Mass. John's will, dated 4 April 1737, was proved 20 April 1742. Joanna's will, dated 5 April 1744, was proved 10 Dec 1744. One of their daughters had married a Wickham at some point, because Joanna's 1744 will names grandson John Wickham. Children:
* Mehitable, b. c. 1691 (first child born 1711), m. c. 1710 William Cornell, b. Dartmouth, MA c. 1686, d. there 1755, the son of Stephen-3 Cornell (Thomas-2-1) and Hannah Mosher (this per Cornell Genealogy, but Hannah might be too young to be mother of William). I do not trust the birth date of 22 July 1684 given for Mehitable in the Cornell genealogy, which is full of errors. Mehitable and William had eight children born 1711 to 1728.
* Hope, b. c. 1694 (first child b. 1718), d. 1755, m. c. 1717 James Phillips, b. Portsmouth, RI 1695, d. Middleton, RI c. 1750, son of William Phillips and Christiana Barker. They had four known children born 1718 to 1729.
* Abigail, b. c. 1696 (first child b. 1720), d. c. 1749, m. c. 1719 John Case, b. say 1685, the son of William Case of W. Greenwich.
* Patience, b. say 1698, d. by 4 April 1737, m. New Shoreham, RI 20 Dec 1720 John Rathbone, b. New Shoreham 29 Dec 1693, d. Exeter, RI 1752, the son of John Rathbone and Ann Dodge of New Shoreham. Patience was called deceased in the 1737 will of her father, but her son Joshua Rathbone was named in the will. A Find-a-grave memorial has been created for John Rathbone in the Ira Wilcox Lot, Hist Cem #74, in Exeter.
* Alice, b. c. 1700, d. by 4 April 1737, m. c. 1722 John Phillips, b. c. 1690, d. 1760, the son of William Phillips and Christiana Barker. Following the death of Alice, John m. (2) Susanna _______. Alice and John had four known children, Sarah, William, John, and Thomas Phillips, all named in her father's 1737, where she is called deceased. Her children were born. c. 1723-1729.
* Ebenezer, b. c. 1702, likely in Portsmouth, d. Tiverton, RI Aug 1774, and m. (1) c. 1725 Hannah Gifford and m. (2) in Tiverton, RI 1770 Sarah (_______) Grinnell. In his second marriage record, Ebenezer was called of Tiverton, RI, and Sarah was called a widow of Little Compton, RI. Ebenezer and Hannah had four children born in Dartmouth 1726-1732, and likely others. He was the executor of the wills of both of his parents
* Mary, b. say 1704, m. William Potter, b. 11 Nov 1696, the son of William Potter and Ann Durfee.
* Joanna, b. say 1706, m. John Fisher. They were mentioned in the 1737 will of her father and the 1744 will of her mother. They had a son, John Fisher, named in the 1744 will of her mother, but I find no other record of this family.
* John, b. Dartmouth 14 Jan 1707/8, m. 29 Jan 1729 [/30?] Remember You__. I've looked at three different hand-written transcripts of the marriage record for John, and personally cannot decipher the surname of his wife. Various transcribers have given the surname as Youin, Youis, Young, Hervia, Jovin, and Yonior. I find no names anywhere in the Dartmouth vital records that might match this name. John and Remember had at least four children born 1732 to 1738, with births recorded in Dartmouth.
* Sarah, b. c. 1710, m. Dartmouth, Mass. 20 Oct 1731 Anthony Arnold, b. Providence 12 March 1704, the son of John-3 Arnold (Richard-2, Thomas-1) and Mary Mowry. Anthony's birth appears in the "Narragansett Friends Records." The family apparently moved to Duchess Co., NY.
* Susanna, b. c. 1712 (first child b. 1734), m. c. 1733 Benjamin Boyce. Many web sources talk about Benjamin being from Salem, Mass., but I find nothing to substantiate this. They had three known children born 1734 to 1737.
* Elizabeth, b. c. 1714 (first child b. 1738) m. c. 1737 (but after the 4 April 1737 date of her father's will when she was called Elizabeth Fish) Seth Huddlestone, b. c. 1715, likely in Dartmouth, and d. 1787 per a web source, the son of Henry Huddlestone and Sarah Case. They had four known children born 1738 to 1744.
