In 1843, Z. T. Fisher, a one-armed man, and a native of Delaware County, Ohio, where he had read law and been admitted to practice, came to London. He was here married to Jemima Jones, daughter of Barney Jones. From 1847 to 1851, he was Prosecuting Attorney of Madison County, and represented the county in the Ohio General Assembly in 1852 and 1854; but soon after the latter date removed to Iowa, where he continued the practice of his profession.
