Monday, 2003.0113.1610,EST: Dear Madge,
By this time, I feel like we're old friends, even tho' i can't be of help to you. On the other hand, perhaps a woman named Amy Strous can. She put a notice on the Castner board last year about a whole slew of Castners in the Washington, NJ area, complete with cemetery.
Evidently there's a Castner homestead in Changewater, and "some things in the back room at the county library in Belvidere" [um, THAT sounds promising!]
According to the Email I received, Amy Strous is reachable at <Nadagoy1(a)aol.com>...although when I tried to reach her there, I didn't succeed. Good luck...R.C.

Monday, 2003.0113.1600,EST: Dear Elaine Karr,
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!
Sometimes it takes a while.... I am most grateful for the reference to "Castner's Cutthroats". The officer was/is a remote relative of mine, and my cousin and I have been searching for a source on him for years, literally. So I shall try to purchase the book, forthwith.
You mention that you are sorry to have no connexion with
us.... At our next reunion, you can be assured that we'll adopt you as an honorary member! R.C.

Sorry, but I cannot help you. All my Kastners came over from Germany in the 1750's and have been hanging out on the coast of Maine ever since...none ever went to N.J. R.C.

What a lot of work you've done!...that's quite a list...enough so that I can safelysay there's no connexion.
My Kastners all came over from the Black Forest in the
1750's and have been in Maine ever since.
I'd be glad to send you my line, if you think it might be of any use. R.C.

Monday, 2003.0113.1345,EST: Dear Colleen,
Sorry, but I doubt that I can help you. All my people came over from Germany in the 1750's and have been in Maine ever since.
There's one possibility: Anton Kastner went to North Carolina during Revolutionary times, and became a Moravian.
It's conceivable that one of his branch went west to Tenn. from there, but that's only a wild guess...I have no evidence.
We can explore this further if you wish Regards, R.C.

Monday, 2003.0113.14220,EST: Dear Deb,
Thanx for passing on the word. I don't think there's a connection, because all my Kastners/Castners were from Maine. But one of them, named Paul, has ended up in Minneapolis, so I'll forward your data on to him.
We can explore this further, if you wish. R.C.

Monday, 2003.0113.1315,EST: Dear Steve,
Thanks for the word; but I doubt that there's any connection. My Kastners came over from the Black
Forest and settled on the coast of Maine, ca. 1750, where they've been ever since [including me].
True, one ancestor moved to North Carolina at the time of the Revolution, and another one headed west during gold rush days, but got no further than Diamond Bluff, Wisconsin.
We can explore this further, if you wish. Regards, r.c.

Beginning with research done by the Rev. Ronald L. Palmer, we have assembled a partial record of the descendants of Peter and Magdalena Castner, 1771 migrants from old Bucks County, Pennsylvania, across the Alleghenies to the western Pennsylvania frontier at Sewickley Creek, now Greensburg.
You can view the record at http://my.execpc.com/~slc/petercastner/index.htm.
I would certainly appreciate your suggestions, comments, questions and additions.
Thank you.

Is Paul Castner a descendant of Michael Castner (1769-1844) and Sarah Heslep (1771- )? They migrated to Island Creek Township bef. 1808. Michael built a mill at the mouth of Wills Creek, bought 1,000 acres of land and operated a store in Stubenville. Doyle, J., Jefferson County Townships (1910).
If not, I am searching for a record of the children and other descendants of Michael and Sarah.
