**This is the information passed to me by my grandparents. We lived in a small town of
Big Plain, Oh near London.
Uncle Golden's son Jasper is the only resource I know in West Virginia. Aunt Emma is
the only one surviving at this time in Marysville, California. Aunt Lona's son Delmer
Casto lives in London, Ohio and could give you any info on her. There is an annual Casto
reunion in West Virginia July 4th. And there is an annual Casto reunion in London, Ohio
the third Sunday of September at the Madison County fairgrounds. Delmer's daughter
Verna Williams is director. I would advise you all to join casto connections facebook by
Danita Smith danita(a)castoconnections.com As she has done a remarkable job of genealogy
tracking. All of Miner's children have passed including my mother most recently
(Wanda) except for daughter's Betty and Rosie and son Richard.
