A Wilson Family Tree

Notes for ? Kricher



The biography of Frank Faus in "Historical and Biographical Annals of Columbia and Montour Counties, Pennsylvania" gives Elizabeth Hepler's second husband's name as Mr. Krisher. A death certificate for granddaughter Hannah Eckman listed her parents as Jacob Fought and Julia Krasher. Family trees that I have seen of Julia's descendants, as well as the biography of Samuel Eckman (husband of Hannah) seem to be unanimous in spelling it Kricher. Marilyn Riehl thinks that the name should be Kreischer. I like Kreischer because it looks more like a German name, but have decided to go with the majority and use Kricher for now. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find any more information about him.
