Fisk began his career as a clerk in a dried goods store located in Trenton, New Jersey.[2] He married Louisa Green in 1853 and had seven children. His oldest child was Harvey Edward Fisk. In March 1862, Fisk began a finance and insurance company called, Fisk & Hatch with Alfrederick Smith Hatch. The company initially focused almost exclusively in government bonds. Both men were short on capital at the time and relied on $15,000 worth of loans from family and friends. Fisk and Hatch found success as sub-agents for Jay Cooke & Company, popularizing and selling millions of dollars in government war securities in New York and New England. The two quickly became the front rank of bond dealers.[1] Fisk's son, Harvey Edward Fisk, joined the company in 1877. In March 1885 the partnership of Fisk & Hatch was dissolved. On March 26, 1885, the firm reorganized under the name of Harvey Fisk & Sons in connection with his three oldest sons. The company sold over $50 million in bonds to the United States government during the Grover Cleveland's administration and the same amount during the first two years of Benjamin Harrison's administration.[3] DeathFisk died on November 8, 1890 at the age of 59.
