They first settled in the area in 1753. By the early part of the 19th century they owned most of the land in that part of Franklin Township, Gloucester County. The Fislers operated 2 sawmills there. One was Scotland Run (now Wilson Lake) and the other was Still Run (now Silver Lake). There they produced lumber. In that early time prior to 1850 Fisler Town had no other businesses. The 2 saw mills most all of its lumber was sold to surrounding towns. Fisler Town was situated 3 miles South of Glassboro and 6 miles North of Malaga. Both towns had thriving glass factories, Fisler Town being in the middle of the two was not unfamiliar with the growing glass industry. Approximately 1849 the first glass factory was being built and in 1850 it was in full blast. Jacob P. Fisler and Benjamin Becket were partners. They were listed in the 1850 U.S.cenus as glass manufactures and dealers making hollow ware; Benjamin Becket also was listed as a dealer in Dry Goods, Groceries and Variety. The glassworks also had a blacksmith named John Heritage. At this time Fisler Town was renamed Fislerville. The new glass factory carried the same name. Fislerville Glass Works; made various bottles, jars, vials, and credited with making one version of the famous Jenny Lind historical flask with the glass factory;s name embossed on one side. August 17th 1852 Benjamin Becket sold his share of the glass factory to Edwin P. Bacon therefore in 1852 the glass works was renamed Fisler, Bacon & Co. however it was still referred to as Fislerville for many more years to come. Unfortunately not 3 years later on August 31 1855 Edwin Bacon met an untimely death in a tragic train accident, in Burlington. He was 37 years old.
