[[Billiar St., Wooster, Ohio|Billiar Street]] and [[Billiar Alley, Wooster, Ohio|Billiar Alley]] bear the name of a French emigrant, Jacob [[Billiar (surname)|Billiar]] from Alsace-Lorraine. He met his wife, Anna Haftzger, in new York City and he brough her to Wooster where he built a home (703 Palmer Street). The couple raised seven children, one of whom, Frank Billiar, became chief miller at the Empire Milling Company plant at Soaptown, East of Wooster.

 

billiar Street... runs only one block East from Palmer to Billiar Alley. When the ways were officially dedicated, a descendant of Jacob agreed to add a final "d" to the name which seemed incomplete. But subsequently the change was abandoned, and the signs reverted to the original spelling. <ref>The Streets of Wooster" by Richard Peter. Wooster, Ohio, 1985. p.8.</ref>
