We are part of the Fr. Jakob TUSCHER / TISHER Swiss family. Jakob's first spouse was Anna BROSSI. Their only child was Abraham TISHER. Abraham married Elizabeth MARTI in Switzerland and immigrated with his father and other families to Bare's Landing (now Hannibal), Monroe Co., Ohio) in 1819.. Abraham and Elizabeth's first child (1of 6) was also given the name Elizabeth TISHER (b. 1815, SWZ). This Elizabeth married Martin VOEGTLY. Their six children were the 2nd generation of Voegtly cousins that have become known to me. They are listed A - F below:

We were unable to attach our Ancestral Quest genealogy database, but hope the above is understandable. We will mail the family tree and notes if contacted. If you are a Voghtley / Woghtley cousin or researcher, greetings from Milwaukee Wisconsin. We look forward to hearing from you!
