Mention of Abraham Custer in the bio Susan wrote on Valentine Kimes, Sr. reminded me of another Abraham Custer. This Abraham Custer connects to the other Valentine KIME, of Maiden Creek Twp. in Berks Co. PA. Descendants of Abraham Custer 1 ( ? ) Abraham Custer . 2 Jacob CUSTER b: 1790 ..... +Mary KIME b: 06 November 1793 Berks Co, PA ..... 3 Hannah Custer ......... +Williams Merchant m: Bef. 1832 ..... *2nd Husband of Hannah Custer: ......... +David Hays m: Abt. 1832 ......... 4 Samuel Hays ......... 4 Joseph Hays ......... 4 Rebecca Hays b: Abt. 1832 ..... *3rd Husband of Hannah Custer: ......... +James Wilson Hannah m: 11 February 1845 Sullivan Co, MO ......... 4 Mary Rachel Hannah b: Aft. 1845 ......... 4 Lincoln Edgar Jacob Hannah b: Aft. 1845 ......... 4 Alonzo Sylvester Custer Hannah b: Aft. 1845 ......... 4 Albertine Isabelle Custer Hannah b: Aft. 1845 ......... 4 Limric William Wilson Hannah b: Aft. 1845 ..... 3 Roseanna Custer b: Abt. 1824 ..... 3 Jacob Custer b: Abt. 1832 ..... 3 Lydia Custer b: Abt. 1834 ..... 3 Lucinda Custer b: Abt. 1835 The Mary Kime listed above was Valentine's granddaughter, and from his branch that located in Berkeley Co, VA where many of her siblings were married. Another similarity between these two families is that some of these descendants settled in Missouri, too! Probably just a coincidence, but could this Abraham Custer also have been Mary Elizabeth Custer's father? Anyone have access to Ancestry.com's census data? Wonder how many Abraham CUSTERs were listed on the 1790 census?
