Fishers

Currently looking for more information on WILLIAM CURPHEY FISHER son of JOHN
FISHER & ESTHER CHRISTIAN CURPHEY m 19/7/1788

WILLIAM married JANET GIBSON in Lezayre 13/5/1837.
They had 3 sons & 5 daughters.
They were all Fishermen believe it or not!

Family folk lore has it that William was tired of his sons arguing and fighting
and threw them all out of the house.
The 3 sons turned up in Eyemouth, Berwickshire, Scotland by the 1881 census.
1881 Census shows William living with his sister CHRISTIAN CORLETT at 
INTACK, BALLAUGH a farm of 3 acres.

Does this farm still exist? Where exactly is it? What happened to the 5 Sisters
named Esther, Margaret,Jane Christian,Isabella & Annie Eliza?
Any help appreciated

Maureen
