The name Belcher is an old one, found in legal records as early as 1176 in Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Worcester, Wiltshire and Northampton shire (Northants) England when Ralph Belcher was a witness to a deed. ("Historical Collections of Staffordshire volume 1 page 291".
The name is uncommon and the origin of the name is from the old French "Bel=Chere" meaning, Good Company or Companion. Some early Norman Translations mean Good cheer or Good and Cheerful. In todays French it is Good and Expensive.
The earliest progenerator of our Belcher line is reported to be Hugh Belcher born around 1460 was a descendant of this Ralph De Belcher of Staffordshire 1176, lineal ancestor of the Belchers of Guilsborough in Northampt onshire.
Several Belchers came to America in the 1620's on the Winthrop Fleet of Ships and settled in Massaschusetts, but our earliest Belcher immigrant to Virginia that is documented is William Thomas Belcher

The name Belcher is an old one, found in legal records as early as 1176 in Staffordshire, Warwickshire, Worcester, Wiltshire and Northampton shire (Northants) England when Ralph Belcher was a witness to a deed. ("Historical Collections of Staffordshire volume 1 page 291".
The name is uncommon and the origin of the name is from the old French "Bel=Chere" meaning, Good Company or Companion. Some early Norman Translations mean Good cheer or Good and Cheerful. In todays French it is Good and Expensive.
The earliest progenerator of our Belcher line is reported to be Hugh Belcher born around 1460 was a descendant of this Ralph De Belcher of Staffordshire 1176, lineal ancestor of the Belchers of Guilsborough in Northampt onshire.
