John Betzikofer of Liverpool (1824-1899)

BIRTH MARRIAGE DEATH 1824, Sigmaringen, Baden-Württemberg, Germany Before 1854, Unknown 13 April 1899, Belden, Medina, Ohio, USA John Betsicover is currently assumed to have been born in the Sigmaringen region of Baden-Württemberg, Germany in 1824 under the name Justus Betzikofer. While research is still underway, this is all we know of John's early life at this current moment. Even less is known on his wife Emily Zimmerman.
