An American Family History

Benjamin Fiske was born about 1650 in Wenham, Essex County, Massachusetts. His parents were William Fiske and Bridget Muskett.

Benjamin married Bethusha Morse on November 6, 1674. She was the daughter of Deacon Daniel Morse and Lydia Fisher. She was born May 20, 1653 in Medfield, Norfolk County, Massachusetts.

Benjamin and Bethusha's children included Lydia Fiske (September 18, 1675), Mary Fiske (July 22, 1677), Bethia Fiske (June 25, 1683), Benjamin Fiske (April. 25, 1684), and Martha Fiske (January 14, 1685).

Benjamin died in 1689.

Benjamin Fiske, the youngest son of William, the Emigrant, removed from Wenham to Medfield, Mass., where he married Bethshua, a daughter of Dea. Morse, November 6, 1674, and had by her the following children, and perhaps others:

Lydia, born Sept. 18, 1675.
Bethia, born June 25, 1688.
Mary, July 22, 1677.
Benjamin, " April 25, 1684.
Martha, born Jan. 14, 1685.

After the birth of Martha the family wholly disappears from the records of Medneld, and their subsequent history is involved in total obscurity, although there are some reasons for believing they went to Connecticut.
