Contextual Overview
20The sons of Ephraim: Shuthelah and Bered his son, Tahath [I] his son, Eleadah his son, Tahath [II] his son, 21Zabad his son, Shuthelah his son, and Ezer and Elead were killed by men who were natives of Gath, because they came down to take their livestock. 22Their father Ephraim mourned for many days, and his relatives came to comfort him. 23Then he went in to his wife, and she conceived and gave birth to a son, and he named him Beriah (on misfortune), because tragedy had come on his house. 24Beriah's daughter was Sheerah, who built both Lower and Upper Beth-horon, and also Uzzen-sheerah.25Rephah was his son along with Resheph; Resheph's son was Telah, Tahan his son, 26Ladan his son, Ammihud his son, Elishama his son, 27Non (Nun) his son, and Joshua [Moses' successor] his son. 28Their possessions and settlements were Bethel and its towns, and eastward Naaran, and westward Gezer, and Shechem, and as far as Ayyah with all their towns, 29and along the borders of the sons of Manasseh, Beth-shean, Taanach, Megiddo, Dor, with all their towns.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
And his daughter was Sherah,.... That is, the daughter of Beriah; not an immediate daughter, but a descendant of his, otherwise she could not have reached the times of Joshua, as she did by what follows:
who built Bethhoron the nether, and the upper; which were cities on the border of the tribe of Ephraim; which the Israelites having taken from the Canaanites, and destroyed, she rebuilt, see Joshua 16:3
and Uzzensherah; which was called after her own name, and to distinguish it from another place called Uzzen; though of neither of them do we read elsewhere.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Sherah could scarcely herself have built the Palestinian cities here mentioned, which must belong to a time not earlier than Joshua. By “she built” we must understand “her descendants built.”
Clarke's Notes on the Bible
Verse 1 Chronicles 7:24. His daughter was Sherah — That is, remnant; "called so," says the Targum, "because she was the remnant that escaped from the slaughter mentioned above."
