Subject: RE: [CASTOR]
I only joined the list because there was a Samuel Custer married to member
of my Hallman family tree. I was trying to see where he connects in the
Custer tree(if there was any connection to Gen George Armstrong Custer. I
have received a lot of info-nothing that matches up though. Have gotten a
lot of Hallman info off the internet. Had no idea we went back to
Germany.
I was told I was Irish on my Dad's side & Dutch & Welch on my moms. My
children think this is great since they took German in school. Norene
