I know a large extended family derives from the marriage of Lewis Heft and Elizabeth Schafer, many of whom now reside in Ohio. I descend from John Heft and the Connecticut Heft line, which also started from Dimbach. I have determined the connection between our families and would like to share information derived from the 1541 Heft/Funk bible.
