Bio: Charles Fisher was probably born in the 1730s, and he died in 1814, on Cane Creek in the section of Mecklenburg County, NC that became Union Co. after 1842.
Some sources state that Charles' parents were Frederick Fischer/Fisher and his wife Anna Sybilla. These and other sources state his wife's name was Barbara Darr.
Per information found on line, "Charles Fisher arrived "on Adams Creek prior to 1774. From this date until his death in 1814 we find a multitude of documented records about him and can easily trace his meanderings from Mecklenburg to Washington County,Virginia in 1777, back down to Rowan County, NC about 1782, and back to Waxhaws about 1789 where he was listed in the 1790 census."

Apparently, Charles Fisher purchased land on Adams Creek in Mecklenburg Co. in 1764, sold the land in 1775, and moved to Washington County, Virginia in 1777. Charles remained there until after June 1782, and in 1784 bought land on Waxhaw Creek back in Mecklenburg Co., NC.
Charles Fisher had at least four sons and one daughter:
John Fisher (c. 1856-c. 1806/11)
