The KAYLERS are of Dutch descent and about 130 years ago a KAYLER and his wife came from Holland to near the site of Goldsboro, York County, where they were among the pioneer settlers of the neighborhood. Their oldest child was then six months of age and grew to manhood in his adopted county where he followed farming, fishing and shoemaking.
