Elizabeth Schweighofer Dasher

 March 25, 1769

Today is the 253rd birthday of Elizabeth Schweighofer Dasher, my fifth great grandmother .

Her birth is recorded in "Old Ebenezer Church, Effingham County GA – 1769 Baptisms"

* "Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas Schweighofer and Hannah (Florl) ,his wife, was born in the night before March 25, 1769, and baptized on the 25th. Sponsors were Ruprecht Zimmerebener, Judith Kraus and Elizabeth Kogler."

Born in Ebenezer, Effingham, Georgia, Elizabeth Schweighofer married Benjamin Dasher in 1788 and had 11 children.

She passed away on 11 Nov 1834 in Ebenezer, Effingham, Georgia, United States.

There was something about the number 11 for this couple.

She died 11 November 1834,

her husband died 11 November 1841

and they had 11 children.

Just an observation.

1. Linda is daughter of Gwendolyn Kessler Hunt

2. Gwendolyn is the daughter of Angus Carl Kessler (1890-1979)

3. Angus is the son of Irene Ophelia (Rahn) Kessler (1868-1945)

4. Irene is the daughter of Lewis William Rahn (1841-1915)

5. Lewis is the son of Jane Caroline (Dasher) Rahn (1815-1898)

6. Jane is the daughter of Martin Dasher (1789-)

7. Martin is the son of Elizabeth Schweighofer (1769-1834)

This makes Elizabeth the fifth great grandmother of Linda.
