  • Notes 
    • [I am] one of the granddaughters of this couple was my great-aunt by marriage. Her name was Georgiella Middleton (Her mom, Eldora Masterman was one of the kids of Ben and Catherine). Aunt Georgie's dad was James Mercer Middleton Jr., an Irish immigrant to Minnesota who was born around 1833. Georgie went to Wellsley College, unusual for a girl born around 1870. Her dad had a dairy farm and then got into politics, real estate, and loaning money to the financially incompetent. Georgie married my great-uncle, James Granville Fisher, then editor of the nationally popular ladies' magazine, the Housewife's Companion. They had three children, Dorothy Edith, Margaret Alice, and Granville Middleton Fisher. Margaret and Granville, know to the family as "Brother", had children, Dorothy did not. The descendants of Granville Fisher are alive. The only grandson of Margaret is still alive. [2]
