Octavian married: 1 August 1568 in Lincolnshire Joan Hartoff
Marian married: __ Thomas Lister
In the will of Thomas Lister dated 30 March 1592, he mentions his wife, Marian, his brother-in-law, Octivian Fisher and his God daughter, Judy Thomas. It is probable that the God child, Judy Thomas is one and the same Judith Thomas, daughter of Robert & Judith [Fisher] Thomas who married James Feake, citizen & goldsmith of London. Robert Thomas owned land in Spanby, Lincolnshire not far from Threckingham, This may have been where he grew up. He was a citizen and draper of London. A connection needs to be made between Judith Fisher and Octavian & Marian.3,4,5
