Elizabeth BICHER

Elizabeth is somehow related to many other Bicher families who came from Lancaster Co. PA to Franklin Co. OH, where they changed surname to Beecher. Most lived near today's Beecher Rd. in Gahanna. They can be found elsewhere in our tree.

Elizabeth Bicher's father in law, Christian Heyl, had a brother Conrad who had Henry Bicher witness his will filed in Franklin County. Henry is obviously related to Elizabeth and could well be her father. At the time the will was proved in 1859, Henry was living in Bloom Township, Fairfield County.

Henry may be either:
