Welcome
to
Bechervaise Family History

(representing the Canadian branch of the family)

While attempting to make the information on this site as accurate and concise as possible, it does not represent all the information available. Please help by providing other relevant details to be incorporated. Of particular interest is the completion of the "Family Tree" details which I hope to get added to the site, and also information on each of the family branches representing the fourteen children of Phillip B. and Margaret Coffin.

Andy Patterson at GoGaspe.com is assisting in getting the site established and maintained and we thank him for his help.
Further information about the Bechervaise Family can be sent to: Lynden

Rather than continually going back and redoing past work; we will be adding updates, either to add new information, or correct past misunderstandings. The information that is put up was the best information we had at the time but often new research provided by other people have added to the understanding of many issues. They will have a heading and will be numbered in sequence. This is a dynamic site so please help us make it as accurate and relevant as possible. Thanks for your understanding.
