I have the year 1777 as marriage date. If Elizabeth Fisher's family
(Stephen and Mary Magdalene) did not settle in Kentucky until 1780, it
seems as if Cornelius and Elizabeth probably were married in VA and
came to KY when all the others did. They were "of Mercer Co. KY". A
Germanna record #10 says "moved to Mercer Co. KY". - Judy
