Thanks, Peter. I had seen that tidbit before. Currently, I am going under the assumption that ours is the Kiziah that was b 1769, based on a cemetery record I found online that I feel certain is that of our ancestor. On the website of the Northern New York Tombstone Transcription project, Clintonville Old Cemetery, AuSable, NY, it lists Kizia Fisk, d. 5 June 1845, aged 77 years [b c1768], lying near the graves of Mary J. and Jacob Tuckerman. Mary J (Fisk) was the daughter of Kiziah (Badger) and Asa Fisk, and the sister of our ancestor, Matilda Fisk who married Admatha Dunklee in 1826 in Windham Co, VT. Mary J was "of Brattleboro, VT" in 1821 when she married Jacob Tuckerman in Saratoga Co, NY. He was "of Bennington" at that time but later moved to Burlington area and then to NY. He had previously lived in or near Eaton, NY with his first wife and children. I was tracking Mary J. and Matilda's brother Asa in NY when I happened on a reference in his cemetery listing [Willsboro, Essex, NY] to his sister Mary J Tuckerman which then led me to her listing in AuSable, and thus to Kezia Fisk buried nearby. I understand that this is pretty circumstantial evidence regarding which Kiziah this is, but it fits. I suspect that Kiziah went to NY to be near one of her children. I have never learned when or where her husband Asa Fisk died, but I am leaning toward the Brattleboro, VT area.
