An American Family History

William Fiske was born on January 30, 1663 in Wenham, Essex County, Massachusetts. He was the son of William Fiske and Sarah Kilham.

He married Marah or Mary. Their children were William Fiske (1695), Joseph Fiske (1701), Ebenezer Fiske (1703), Jonathan, and daughters Sarah, Ruth, Lydia and Mary. The children were born in Wenham.

The family moved to Andover, Massachusetts about 1710 where died on December 10, 1745 when he was 83 years old. Marah was still in Andover as late as 1734.

William Fiske, eldest son of Dea. William, resided in Wenham until about 1710, when he removed to Andover, Mass. By wife, Marah, he had sons William (born 1695), Joseph (1701), Ebenezer (1703), Jonathan, and daughters Sarah, Ruth, Lydia and Mary. All these were living in Andover in 1726, and had property distributed to them by deed from their father, who died there in 1745, in his 83d year. His wife Marah (often called Mary) was living in Andover as late as 1734, as appears by her signature to a deed of that date.
