My Great Grandfather was George W. Castleberry who in 1910 lived in East St. Louis, St.
Clair County, Illinois. At that time he was married to "Nettie" (Jeanette
Beck.)
According to the 1910 census he would have been 50 years old and would have been married 3
times.
The children listed in the 1910 census are:
1) William M Castleberry age 20
2) Blanch E age 18
3) Winnie P age 17
those above are from a previous marriage
4) Mary age 8
5) Clinton age 3
6) Minnie Hope Castleberry age 4 (this is my grandmother who married Seth William Overby
on August 20, 1920 in East St. Louis Illinois) born Jan 28, 1906 and died Oct 1, 1993 in
Michigan
7)Gladys age 10months
It also shows on this census that his parents came from Arkansas however, on the 1930
census it shows that his father came from Kentucky and his mother from indianna.
Also, on the Family search it shows that George W. Castleberry was born Dec. 1, 1859 in
Union City, Randolph County, Indiana and died August 6, 1918 in St. Clair County,
Illinois.
It also shows that George W. Castleberry married Jeanette (Nettie) Beck in Mount Carmel,
St. Clair Illinois in 1900.
This is all the information that I have been able to obtain and wondering if anyone would
have any information that they would be able to share.
Thank you
