Samuel Fish, d 15 Sept 1900, 80 yrs, 11 mon, 20 days
d. Milan b. New York, occupation: manufacturer
Married: Sally A. (Crosby) Fish
Obituary taken from Sandusky Register, page 6, Weds., Sept. 19, 1900:
Mr. Samuel Fish, a well known citizen, passed away at the family residence in East Milan on Saturday morning, Sept. 15, 1900, at the ripe age of 81 years.
Honored and appreciated, after a long well spent, useful and successful life, he has finished his labors in peace and quiet dignity, and now at the close, with loving son and daughters to comfort and sustain it seems as though no element were lacking to a complete life and happy death, the funeral which was largely attended was held from his late home at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon, Rev. Hudson Tuttle of Berlin officiating.
Mr. Fish was born at Olisco, Onondaga county, N.Y., Sept. 25, 1819. He was united in marriage with Sally Crosby Feb. 20, 1844, and the family have been residents of East Milan about 56 years. Five children blessed the union, three of whom are living viz. Albert M., Miss Celinda and Mrs. S. E. ?erry of Kansas, all three being with him at the end.
The following poem, a fragrant and beautiful tribute of regard, was written for the occasion by Mrs. Emma Rood Tuttle and read by her at the funeral:
AT HIS FUNERAL
The page is finished; all is said
The mortal part of him can say;
If he be here he cannot speak,
And bid us welcome here today.
This is his last reception. We
Are fain to look on him at rest;
The tumults of our common lives,
No more will move his marble breast
The march grows lonesome, year by year,
The ranks are thinning as we go;
Our steps less buoyant, and the tones
Of march time music soft and slow.
A leaden pressure crowds our hearts,
A mist of tears is in our eyes;
We sense that earthly pleasures end,
But so do earthly miseries.
It seems but yesterday since he
Who now has entered into rest.
Was all alive, and working out
The high hopes prisoned in his breast.
Beside him walked a sweet, true wife,
Around them happy children grew,
Loving each other, loving them,
And loving all things good and true.
The founder of a lovely home,
Where gaunt want never crowded in,
To haunt the inmates. In its wails,
How happy we have often been!
The social gatherings where at
His smiling face and cherry voice
Gave warmest greetings, warmed us through,
And made us friendship's golden choice.
In conversation unrestrained
We talked of heaven and angels too,
Of cramping errors and reforms,
The family old, the broadening new,
We sang our thoughts to joyance hint.
His son was ever reaching up;
Meantime the good wife and the girls
Passed dainty lunch and smoking cup.
All hearts were glad. Those days are lived.
And He with life's dead yesterdays
In memory's graveyard still and sweet.

Notes:
This entry is somewhat speculative in that it is based upon a record found in the 1880 census records for Berlin Township Erie Co, Ohio which lists Minard M Fish as the father of "Birtie Fish", a boy of age 6 who was born in Berlin Heights, Erie Ohio. This matches our known record of Bert Harold Fish. Bert Fish's 1st marriage license shows his father's name as "Myndrett". Note that the names "Minard" and "Myndert" are apparently common variants. It also lists his mother as Susan Moore which is consistent with the 1880 census.

"Willis C was the favorite son, was made heir to the old homestead, but his fine sense of justice prompted him to break the will and by his own election the estate was divided in equal shares amoung all the children; he married but had no descendants."

Obituary from the Elkhart Truth of 9/9/1929:
Bert Harold Fish, 54, dies at 2:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon at his home, 227 Aspenwald Avenue. Although he had been ailing for the past year, he continued his work at the J. C. Waterson Machine Co. until he became bedfast two weeks ago. The funeral will be held Tuesday, with a service at the home at 3:30 o'clock conducted by the Rev. F W Lineberry of the Methodist Protestant church, and burial at Rice Cemetery. Mr. Fish was born Nov 1, 1874 at Berlin Heights, Ohio and lived at Three River, Mich., 25 years before coming to Elkhart at the time of his marriage, Sept 8, 1914, to Miss Orpha E Young of this city. He was a traveling salesman of the Marshall (Mich) Furnace Co., a position he filled for a number of years before taking employment with the Waterson Company. Surviving Mr. Fish are his wife and three children--John Harold, James Leroy and Phyllis Maxine Fish, all at the parental home.
His 1st marriage license application lists his bride as "Maggie Henrickson", his father as "Myndrett M Fish" and his mother as "Susie Moore". He reputedly had 2 children with his 1st wife, believed to be sons; their names are unknown.

There is a record of a Roy Fish who was born in Milan, Ohio marrying Augusta Sommerschield (b2 JUN 1891 in Norwalk, Ohio) on Feb 4, 1933 in Toledo, Ohio so suspicion is that Ada died/divorced and he re-married. There may be more children here! Also need to see if death cert. is available.
