Hi Deb
              It is a german name Kurt Von Schleicher 1882-1934 was a german general in the first world war.  There is a county in Texas called Schleicher.  Its hard to say whether Skelcher comes from Schleicher.                                               Carol

Hi Carol


We'll have to keep looking to see if we can come up with the origin.

Hi Mark    How far back have you traced your Skelcher line? Do you know where it originated from? Carol

Hi Mark You need to gather as much information as you can from living relatives on births, deaths and marriages before you go further back. I hope that helps. Carol02.

Hi Debs       
           
Other children are:-
                               John 13 Aug 1820  my g.g.grandfather
                               Ann     5 Feb 1826
                               William 20 Apr 1828
                                Richard 20 Jun 1830
                                Edward 27 July 1834
All were christened in Cubbington. William their father died in 1834 Mary married Edward Walker on 14 Aug 1834 in Cubbington.  He was a farmer from Berkeswell. They all moved there and they had a daughter Eliza born in Berkeswell. 1837. If you want anymore information let me know. I am still trying to trace some of the lines.
