General Notes: Husband - Isaac LeFevre

---

A French Huguenot, he immigrated to America to escape religious persecution. He landed in Boston in 1708, and settled in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, in 1712.
With his sons, he came to Chester, later Lancaster County, and located near Strasburg. [HCC 1886, 373]

In the year 1708 a Dr. Lefever came from France and settled in Boston, Massachusetts, and from him, probably, sprang all of the Lefevers in the United States. He was one of the famous Huguenots who fled from religious persecution to find a refuge in the New World. [HCC 1886, 530]

The name of Lefever is an old and honored one in France. The first of the name of whom we have record here was Isaac Lefever, who came from France with his wife and mother-in-law, Mrs. Ferrer, to Boston, Massachusetts, in 1708, but moved to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, to a better farming section. [GPHWP, 1572]

. . . landed in Boston in 1710, went to Newburg, New York, thence to Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and came to Cumberland County in 1775. [That last phrase probably refering to the next generation?]
