I'm having trouble finding info on my g-g-grandfather, Lewis Benjamin Fisher. He was born in Gaston County, NC in the 1880's and died in 1952. He married Sarah Lenara Starnes and they had 10 children. I need to know his parents names and his family tree. The story goes that one of our ancestors shot a deer in the Kaisers forest in Germany to feed his family. He had to leave Germany or be imprisoned or killed for the offense. That's how we got here, but I don't know when that was. Can anyone help me?
