He came to Nebraska with his parents in 1885 and resided there until he came to South Dakota in October of the year 1913. In February of the following year he was united in marriage to Henrietta Fredrickson. To this union were born 4 children, two girls and two boys. His wife preceded him in death three years ago. One article I have read says they had a fifth child which caused the death of Henrietta, along with the child. He leaves to mourn his death four children, five sisters, one brother and a host of friends. The funeral services were held in the local Community Church. Interment was made at Graceland Cemetery. ~~~~~~~~~~ Gross Centennial Book: George Fish was born at Manning, Iowa in 1881 and died in 1930 at age 49. He had five sisters and one brother. Henrietta was born in 1892 in and died in 1927 at the age of 35. Henrietta was the daughter of Henry and Kathryn Fredrichsen and was born in Manning, Iowa. At the age of five, she moved with her parents to Wausa, Nebraska and later to Ft. Randall. In 1914, she was married to G. W. Fish of Gross. In this short wedded life of thirteen years, they were the parents of four children. Evelyn Hume, George, Jr., Arlene Gaily and Henry "Hank". The birth of a fifth child caused Henrietta's early death along with her baby. Three years later, the father, George W. died of an infection that caused blood poisoning. George and Henrietta farmed near Burke, SD for several years. After their deaths, the children came to live with relatives near Gross. Evelyn lived with Chick and Hannah Sinclair; Kenneth with John and Kate Patterson; Arlene with grandparents, Henry and Kathryn Fredrichsen; and Henry with John and Anna Cassidy. George W. was a hired hand for Gene Parsons in the very early years on the same place his son, Henry, now owns and lives near Gross. Also, John U. Connot, father of Annie Fish, wife of Henry Fish, worked at the Gene and Ida Parsons homestead farm as Gene was an auctioneer and horse trader. Both men were single and worked at the same time, never to realize their children would marry and own the Parsons farm.
