Town History

“The first merchant in the town was a man by the name of Reed who also kept hotel and dealt largely in tobacco the raising of which was the early industry of the neighborhood.

As to the naming of the town one tradition is that it was named from the famous hunter Lewis Wetzel who no doubt traversed that neighborhood time and again. Another version of it is that it was named after a son of Barak Fisher who died in infancy, and whose grave is on the Dr. Weber farm 1/4 mile south of town and formerly owned by Barak Fisher. The grave is marked by a double head stone under a hickory tree well preserved and for that date artistically carved. The stone is double as it marks the grave of twin children, Lewis B. Fisher and Sarah J. Fisher, children of Barak and Jane Fisher and who died June 26^th, 1837, aged 13 months. It will pay you to visit the spot and verify the above.

In view of the prominence of the man Fisher and his misfortune happening just when the town was laid out and named, it seems very probably and natural that he should have desired that the town be named from his son and that his neighbors would respect his wish.” – Excerpt from the below 1907 Sentinel article.
