We thought it was Kaester forever. Oh, well. Maybe it was. I wouldn't
admit to it, but my son descends from THE George CUSTER via daugh,
Rebecca Kaester who married John Holder somewhere in PA. Of their
offspring our ancestor is Loyalist Jacob Holder m. Mary Sharp. Her
ancestors sound questionable enough!
I know zip about Rebecca and John. Some think they ended up in NC, but
I am not one of those, considering Moravian records.
In case you're wondering which George Custer (AKA CUSTARD!? - there's a
new one for you?): the one who was killed by Delaware Indians near the
Blue Mountains Gap - Easton, Gnaddenhutten area of PA? - on Saturday 1
Nov 1755. Caused a rucous, but that's what he gets for selling (bad?)
whiskey by the gallon. Guess Ms. Rhoades Custer then married someone
else; the better to raise the children.
I see you have Custer members. Maybe some are cousins. Wendy (HOLDER
HIEFIELD), UEL of S.B., CA. Note: I inherited none of George's
independent ways; it all went to our son. I must be more like Rebecca.
