From the History of Owen County, Indiana - 1908
Henry N. Fiscus, an enterprising farmer and livestock raiser of Jefferson Township, near the little village of Middleton (Arney) was born April 20 1854 on the same farm on which he still lives, and he was the twelfth child born to Jacob and Jane Bowen Fiscus, the former a native of North Carolina, the latter of Ohio, and of German and Irish extractions. They were among the earliest settlers of OWern County, coming as early as 1819 and are still living on the old homestead. Henry was reared upon the home farm and remained with his parents until he was 21 years of age. He was united in marriage to Sarah J. Herrington, a native of this county, October 17 1875. He and his wife are members of the Christian Church. He is a sympathizer with the Democratic Party and is an energetic, wide-awake, well to do young man.
