Married First John Williams, with whom she had three children, Elizabeth, Ellen, and Susan. Married Second Thomas Fisher, Reverend of Seventh Day Baptist Church, on 16 December 1838 in England.
IN MEMORIAM
Mrs. Eld. Thomas Fisher
Mrs. Grace H. , relict of Eld. Thomas Fisher, died at DeRuyter, N. Y. , Feb. 11, 1888, aged 86 years, 9 months and 9 days. She was born in Devonshire, England, and was brought up according to the creed and practice of the Church of England. Her first husband having died, she was left to care for her three daughters with all of a mother's joy and affection. On her marriage with Eld. Fisher, who was then a Methodist minister, she heartily united with the Methodist Church. When they came to America, the subject of baptism was carefully considered, and along with her husband she conscientiously accepted the Baptist principles, and joining the Baptist Church of Troupsville, N. Y. When Eld. Fisher was called to the pastorate of the Baptist Church of DeRuyter, their attention was drawn to the Sabbath question, and both embraced the principles of the Seventh-day Baptists, and united with the DeRuyter Church. While Eld. Fisher was pastor of the Cuyler Hill Church, they united there, and so continued until death.
Like her husband she was wonderfully conscientious, and whatever she did and said was from the heart, yet with a cheerfulness and joy that made her life bright and beautiful. Indeed, if we could gather up that life, with its kind words and helpful actions and ministrations of love, it might be compared to sunshine. To husband, family and friends, she seemed like God's sweet, pure, blessed sunshine. If any one wonders at the life and labors of Eld. Thomas Fisher, think of such a helpful wife and such a bright and happy home. Her last sickness was very brief, for when erysipelas set in scarce a day and a half passed away till she entered into rest.
