| I have traced the family back to 1515, Ololus Custer, Kaldenkirchen, Germany. The Custer family apparently starts there. No one has come up with a Custer ancester older than that. I want to now concentrate my efforts on building a tree upon the John and Susannah Custer descendants. They were the first Mercer County (Custer) settlers. I grew up in Mercer County, so this means a lot to me to do this for all of you. My family traces down from John and Susannah's son Peter. Peter had a son named Joseph. Joseph had a son named James S. James S. had a son named Albert. Albert had a son named Elba. Elba had a son named Rolland. And I am Rolland's daughter. I have 2 brothers, neither of whom had children to carry on the Custer name. There will be no more children to carry on the name of Custer in my lineage. The blood will still run through our children, but the name dies with my generation. Therefore, I am tracing our heritage as far back as I can, to let our children's children know their heritage. |
