Surnames: FISCHER, FISHER, BECKEL, BONER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YaW.2ACIB/1032.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I have not found documentation that my possible David FISCHER (abt 1700-d.1761 Bethel, Lancaster Co.,PA) was the son of John Matthias FISCHER (bap 14 Oct 1666 Alseborn, Rheinland-Pfalz, Germany). What makes me think John Matthias FISCHER might be David's father is because their was a John Fischer who had a German will submitted 23 Feb 1739 Lancaster Co., PA that wasn't translated or copied;therefore, original no longer exists. Also John Matthias Fischer's bro. Johann Sebastian Michael Fischer was in Lancaster Co., PA area. I don't even know which of David's son's Peter (md Catarina Beckel) or Lorentz (md Catarina Boner) that my Jacob and his brother Peter come from (doesn't come from John George Fisher).
