        GEORGE FISH, of the firm of GEORGE FISH & Co., dealers in groceries
     and provisions, is a native of England, and was born May 11, 1812.
     Upon reaching manhood, emigrated to the United States, in 1833, and
     reached Port Huron in the spring of the same year, when there were
     only three houses in Port Huron.  He was clerk in a store for two
     years.  Then bought a farm and engaged in farming for many years.  In
     1872, he came in town again, and engaged in the grocery trade.  He
     owns several good farms, besides stores and buildings here in the
     city.  When he came here he had nothing, and his success in life is
     owing to his own efforts.  In June, 1839, he married Miss MARY
     RATTRAY, a native of Scotland.  They have five children - WILLIAM,
     MARY JANE, THOMAS, GEORGE and JOHN.
