    Just today reading “The Astor Orphan” p.82 -Preserved Fish!
    An Englishman, he survived a shipwreck as a boy and was pulled from the Atlantic ocean- thus the name.
    Settled in NY with many descendents including Hamilton Fish I,II,& III.

    Finally got to see Mr. Fish’s tomb, before we learned about him only through the bars of the cemetery fence .. http://imjustwalkin.com/2012/04/06/new-york-city-marble-cemetery/
