Syphers, Cyphers, Scifers, Scifres, etc. etc.

I am posting on this board because of the many variations of spelling of my ancestral name until the late 1800's, when Scifers/Scifres appeared in written family records. My ancestors are Joseph and Barbary, born possibly in Germany, although someone else thinks Barbary may have been born in PA. Both were probably born before 1755, (based on the birth dates of their children). We have a verbal history of them living in Pennsylvania, then going by flat boat down the Ohio river to KY, where they lived first in a fort (due to Indian uprisings int he area) and then in Shelby and Jefferson counties. Joseph and Barbary's deaths are recorded in Shelby county. Their children were: Mathias, Eliza Jane, Mary, Joseph Jr., and Betsy, and possibly more. If anyone ties into this line, please email me and I will be happy to exchange information with you. ginny12345@aol.com
