    The Fiske Family by Albert Augustus Fiske, 1867

    		  
     

    Samuel Fiske, second son of Dea. William, of Wenham, was married to Elizabeth Browne, of Reading, in Dec., 1699. They had
    Elizabeth, born in December, 1700;
    Josiah, in 1702; Phineas, 1705;
    Jonathan, 1706;
    Samuel, 1708; and
    Lois and Anna, twins, in 1710.

    The family, soon after the last birth, removed to Rehoboth, and from thence, in time, mostly scattered to parts unknown. Samuel Fiske, the father, was living in Rehoboth as late as 1718, and there are strong reasons for believing that his eldest son was the Josiah Fiske who was there married to Sarah Bishop, in 1723. Otherwise the latter cannot be identified with any branch of his name in this country.
