  • Notes 
    • (Research):From Mike Johnston, The Wisher-Shaffer Project:
      In her letter dated 3 Aug 1850, Sarah Jane (Valentine) Neely writing to her brother, James Fuhrman, states," Sister Ellen Wisher sent me a letter a few weeks ago." In the next paragraph she writes, "If I can I will come and see you in September. I will take with me my youngest child, Harriet. I should be glad to go and see sister Elen Wisher. Must check 1850 Census (Ohio) for Wisher. Among the documents received from the Orphans Court in Mifflin County, Pennsylvania on page 3 by my numbering, is a promissory note signed by Robert Valentine and David Wisher. The date is either 1816 or 1819. The point of interest is that a relationship is established between the Valentines and the Wishers. Another point of interest is the fact that in the Thompson Cemetery of the First Rush Creek Presbyterian Church (where John Valentine is buried) are two graves occupied by Ellen Wisher, wife of David and David Wisher. There is a two or three year discrepancy in age between that shown (on the tombstone)and the birth date we had from Lola Avellar.
