Other Information:

Elizabeth emmigrated from Switzerland to Fairfield County, Ohio in 1845. I do not know who she came to America with; it is coincidental that John Jacob Businger, her husband, also emmigrated from Switzerland to Fairfield County, Ohio in 1845. I speculate about whether they or their families knew each other in the "old country." According to the John J. Businger obituary, they lived in Fairfield County, Ohio until 1851 when they moved to Wood County, Ohio. 4, 5
