I forgot to look at the guardianship records, I found the following:
February Term Court 1836 -
"Harriet Ann, Lucy Anna and Andrew Jackson Eslinger, minor heirs of Casper Eslinger,
dec'd., Frances Eslinger, widow, made guardian." and;
November Term Court 1844 -
"Lucy Ann, Harriet Ann and Andrew Eslinger, minor heirs to the estate of Casper
Eslinger, deceased, George W. Austin appointed guardian."
I assume George Austin is the uncle of the three Eslinger heirs?
Anyway, it appears Casper died sometime prior to 1836 and the 1844 record may indicate
that Frances Eslinger, the mother, had died. I mentioned in my previous message that a
"Francis Eslinger" is listed in the Probate Index, this may be Frances (Austin)
Eslinger, but I don't have any dates.
