Ms. Blair; Here are the basics;

Thomas Bissell or Bysselle (m. Margaret) England, possibly from
France
John Bissell, Sr. 1591-1677 (m. Mary Drake) Arrived in America
in 1628
Thomas Bissell 1639-1689 (3rd child) (m. Abigail Moore)
Isaac Bissell 1682-1744 (11th child) (m.Elizabeth Osborne)
Isaac Bissell Jr. 1709-1777 (eldest) (m. Sarah Stone)
Isaac Bissell III 1747-1823 (eldest) (m. Abiatha Way)

From here my info branches out to 11 children: John -1771;
Luther -1773; Orange-1775; Levi-1777; Sally-1778; Harvey-1780;
Benjamin-1782; Norman-1784; Peggy-1786; Polly-1790; Isaac IV -1792

Isaac Sr. settled and died in Litchfield,CT, leaving 10 children. Isaac Jr. died in Windsor, CT, leaving 6 children. Isaac III moved to Bowe Hill, Hartwick,NY in 1790, where he died.

You need to find a copy of the book "Recollections" by Anna Bissell McKay,1938, Castle Press, Pasadena, CA. It has a wealth of information on your particular branch of the family, including a tree. She was the grandaughter of Harvey.

FYI, I am descended from Samuel, son of John Sr.
