Hello to all you hard workers!! My name is Patricia Durst Shaffer, at a recent Durst Reunion we decided to have a marker placed in the Old Union Cemetery, Salisbury, Pa. for Casper Durst, our ancestor who fought in the Rev. War. I have a letter from the Dept. of Vet.Affairs, Wash.D.C. , I need to fill out the info. in order to receive a government marker. I know that Casper Durst was in Daniel Cresap's Company, and is listed under Garrett Co., Maryland Veterans of the Rev.War. The Glade Star, in 1942, by the Garrett Co., Historical Society , states that Casper Durst was a member of Capt. Daniel Cresap's Company. I also have info. stating that Ross Compton Durst and Margaret Durst Cupler were accepted into the S.A.R. & D.A.R. under his service, sometime in the 1970's. They list his birth as 1731 and death as 1823, this must be on his papers. The field stone, however, shows the date as 1839. In order not to delay a response, or have to rewrite info., on Casper Durst it would help if I have the info. that was accepted on him. If it is possible to sent or e-mail, it to me I would very much appreciate your assistance in this matter. I realize that it takes time and effort on your part and I thank you so much in advance. Patricia Durst Shaffer.
