Colleen,
The book only says that Jeremiah had Thomas who had Franklin.
Franklin had Robert Marion and James T. (possibly more children).
It does list James T.'s children:
Minnie M. (m. W. J. Hauck)
Emma (m. John S. Montgomery)
Welby (died at 22)
Frank G. (m. Olivia J. Taylor)
Bence J. (m. Estelle Torbet)
Does this tie into your line?

Do you have a list of all their children? I am asking because each
of those names exception Jeremiah go along my lines.

I would like to know who Jeremiah's father and mother were:
Below is a portion of a biography of:
Robert Marion CASTEEL (Sarah BENEFIELD), son of
Franklin CASTEEL (Martha Ann DUNLAVY), grandson of
Thomas CASTEEL (Elizabeth WALTAMYRE), gr grandson of
Jeremiah CASTEEL ( ? ).
In the same book is a biography of his nephew, Frank G. CASTEEL, son
of James T. (Olivia J. Taylor) who was the son of Franklin (Martha Ann
Dunlavy).

ROBERT MARION CASTEEL -- A well known farmer, active and enterprising,
Robert M. Casteel is pleasantly located in Van Buren township, where
he is successfully employed in agricultural pursuits, having a well
improved and well managed homestead. A son of Franklin Casteel, he was
born May 2, 1848, in Madison county, Indiana, about a mile from the
village of Elwood. His grandfather, Thomas Casteel, and his great-
grandfather, Jeremiah Casteel, were both natives of Maryland, Thomas
having been born in the extreme southwest [note: I think it's possible
this is an error and was actually the extreme NORTHwest] corner of
that state. Jeremiah Casteel, who was an iron worker by trade, moved
from Maryland to Ohio, and there died at the home of his son Thomas in
the eighty-sixth year of his age. He married a bonnie Scotch lassie
who came to Maryland from Scotland when a child.
Thomas Casteel grew to manhood in his native state, down in the
southwest corner [note: possibly northwest], and in after years used
to say that when a boy he frequently went out before breakfast and ran
around the boundary stone breathing the fresh air of three different
states [note: possibly MD/VA/PA]. At the age of twenty two years he
migrated to Ohio, and six years later married. Buying then a farm
located about four miles from Zanesville, he resided there a number of
years and then came to Indiana, stopping first, for a year, at
Greenfield. Settling in Madison county in 1840, he purchased land near
Elwood, and lived there until 1861. Selling out, he removed to Edgar
county, Illinois, purchased a farm, and there spent the remainder of
his life, dying in 1876, in the eighty-fourth year of his age. He
married Elizabeth Waltamyre, who was born near Zanesville, Ohio, a
daughter of Amos Waltamyre, a native of Germany. Mr. Waltamyre was a
batter by trade, and also owned and operated a pottery near Zanesville
for awhile. He subsequently purchased a farm near there, and that is
now owned by one of his sons. His wife's maiden name was Mercer.
Thomas Casteel's wife survived him four years, dying at the age of
seventy-nine years. She was the mother of eleven children, all of whom
married and had children.

Benefield, his wife.
