Ancestors of George Henry Custer, Jr.

Generation No. 13

      4096. Reiner Kuster, born Abt. 1542; died 03 Jul 1616.

Notes for Reiner Kuster:
      From "Pennsylvania Mennonite Heritage" Volume IX, Number 3 July 1986
p.28 in an article titled "The Kusters and Doors of Kaldenkirchen,
Germany and Germantown, Pennsylvania" by Chester E. Custer:
"Within the civil records in the archives at Düsseldorf the Kuster
family can be traced to Reiner Kuster, who was born about 1542 and died
on July 3, 1616. The name of Reiner's wife in unknown. Reiner was the
father of Johannes Kuster, born in 1576. Johannes married ____
Walburgis in 1598 and died April 8, 1650. They were the parents of
Arnold, born about 1606. Arnold married Catherine von Haeren (a umlaut which can be spelled as an "a" with two dots over it or as "ae", but usually just an a in English records)) on October
13, 1629, and died November 24, 1679. Arnold and Catharine were
mentioned earlier in connection with the baptism of Margarita Doors.
Each of Arnold's sons named his first-born son after him. Emigrant
Paulus Kuster was the son of Arnold and Catharine. The birth date for
Paulus cannot be determined because the baptismal records of the
Catholic church at Kaldenkirchen between 1640 and 1646 are missing.
...Paulus Kuster, reared as a Roman Catholic, married Gertrude Doors on
October 16, 1668, in the Reformed church at Kaldenkirchen......
Paulus apparently left the Catholic church prior to or at the time of
his marriage. Gertrude and her parents had been in the Reformed church
since 1655."

--Although I have seen a name for the father of Reiner, I have not see any documentation for this name.
