Biography

Elizabeth Ann Ashley was born on 12 July 1946^[1][2][3]. She was the daughter of Heber Ashley, Jr^[4][5] and Betty Marie Dohn^[4][5][2].

The original source of information on this profile is from the obituary of her father Heber Ashley, Jr found on FamilySearch^[4][5]. Her date of birth was originally an estimate based solely on the date of marriage of her parents and his father's enlistment in the U.S. Military. Later her obituary and FindAGrave memorials helped narrow it down. Elizabeth and All 6 of her siblings were given the same estimated DOB. Obviously this is incorrect and will be updated as better answers become available.

Elizabeth married Richard M "Dick" Fancher^[2].

Elizabeth and her husband had four children: Mick Fancher^[2], Jerre Fancher^[2], Joshua Fancher^[2], and Megan (Fancher) Van Dyke^[2].

Elizabeth "Beth" Ann (Ashley) Fancher passed away on 13 February 2011^[1][2][3] at Columbia Manor^[3] in Columbia, Missouri, United States^[2].

• Precise date of death and location of death are from the attached obituary that seems likely to represent the subject of this profile (appropriate/approximate year of birth, year of death consistent with daughter Megan's tree on Ancestry, and condolences written to her daughter Megan. This is also the source for the number of children she had. Cousin Kevin Mock also left condolences which sealed the assumption as he is also a DNA match to Jeff Timmons.
