Clement and Anne??? had the following children - CLEMENT was born c 1640/44
PHILLIS baptised St Martins Canterbury 24 April 1665.
RYSE (Ruth) baptised St Martins Canterbury 13 January 1668.
JOHN baptised 24 September 1672 St Martins Canterbury.
WILLIAM baptised 31 January 1673 St Martins Canterbury.  Died 1675.

Well it looks like a few possible branches with the name carried forward by John & William.
At some point we need to find when the Thomas & George names are added into the mix

The John FLISHER & Edith DAVIS marriage in 1788 may have been the first one in Dorset
but that needs to be confirmed.
(Wyke Regis/Weymouth region)

Also, how is Clement connected to a John FLISHER of Sussex of 1620 and 1643.  Could Clement have been born in Sussex?

Then there is the name appearing in Yorkshire & Scotland

EDWARD FLISHER (born 1855) and FRANCES ANN BEER are -

Amy chance your BEER name has a Devon connection?

Hi,

I am not sure at the moment, I have done very little research on the BEER line, all I know is at the time of her marriage to Edward Flisher she was living in Seasalter which is near Whitstable in Kent. I will have a dig around over the next few days and see if I can find anything.

Best wishes,
Blue

Update,

Frances Ann BEER is the daughter of GEORGE BEER and CAROLINE. George was born in Whitstable Kent c1826 and Caroline was born Chilham Kent c1820, no further information at present.

Regards,

As we get back to the FLISHER name, we have
the George Flisher born in Weymouth (1871),
he appears to be the one that was in Kent in
1901 as a "Fog Signal" worker.  this one is likely a son of a Richard FLISHER.

Throughout the years, Scotland and Yorkshire are locations of some of the FLISHER branches.
So, the big question is did the FLISHER name of Kent start with a Scottish base with French connections prior to the 1600's?

[Zelley]

Of interest. is the Cornish KELWAY and Dorset
Kellaway connected?  Also, is there a link to
Kelway of Cornwall abd Flisher of Kent?
