= Lasher is a German name, and it comes from the surname Loescher. This name was first stated in Baden-Wurttemberg, Germany in the 1261. About 5 Lasher families immigrated from Germany between 1710 and 1734 to New York and Pennsylvania. The name Lasher means peacemaker or arbitrator. In Pennsylvania there are 448 lashers. In the United States there are 3,659 lashers. The highest populated states of Lashers are New York, Pennsylvania, Flordia, California, and Indiana. (They are listed in highest to lowest population.)



I have also found out that Sebastian Loescher was the first one of the Lasher families to sail across the ocean to get to the United States. He was at the age of 40 when he told his family that they were setting sail on a ship named the Medfort in June. This family was very lucky because everyone made it, while others did die.
