Notes for Robert Fisher
His WW I draft registration card, filed 12 Sep 1918, records Robert Fisher, age 38, residence 5 E. Grant St., Knightstown, Henry Co., Indiana, born 31 July 1880, occupation section worker, employer P.C.C. & St. L., nearest relative Willard George (friend), same address.

This is the same birth date that is on his gravestone.
Census
He is not in the 1910 census of Rowan Co. or environs, nor Henry Co., Indiana, and there are too many Robert Fishers born ca 1880-1881 scattered about the country with birthplaces of Virginia or Kentucky for me to be able to identify which one might be him.

1920 census of Henry Co., Indiana, Wayne township, enumerated 16 Jan, lists on p. 5A as family #123, at 424 S. Washington St, Knightstown:
Jones, Thomas, 41, laborer on railroad; Mollie F., wife, 34; Hazel, dau, 11; Beulah, dau, 9; Opal, dau, 8; Oral R. son, 4 10/12. All born Ky Ky Ky. Fisher, Robert, roomer, 39, divorced, b. Ky US US, laborer on railroad.

(From the Ky birth index, Mollie’s maiden name was Thomas, and Opal was born in Lewis Co., Ky. But I cannot find the family in the 1910 census to see if Robert Fisher might already be with them.)
