I saw your post and was interested were your Caylor family originated. Our family started
with names Kehler, Kahler, and eventually Caylor originating in the Rebuck or Greenbrier
areas, Northumberland County, west of Lancaster Pennsylvania. They eventualy settled in
Worthville/Brookville areas of Jefferson County, Northeastern Pennsylvania. The patriarch
was Hendrick Kehler (Kahler) born about 1750. He was married to Elizabeth Shaffer and had
9 childern. The Kehler name goes back even further but has not been researched as of this
time. Does your family (Caylor) originate from Pennsylvania or elsewhere? Appreciate a
reply. My family goes back 8 generations and probably further with more Kehler research.
The familys were large, 8 to 10 childern each, they were needed to work the farms.
Joseph Caylor
