Hi Joyce and List, Thanks for your offer of a look-up in Apprentices in VA. Please check for Casteel/Castile. I have the following: Greenbrier Court of Wednesday, April 25, 1787: Ordered that John Castile be Bound to Jacob Riffe according to Law. This John Casteel/Castile b Greenbrier 1778. His parents/siblings/friends are unknown, in fact, this is a 30+ yr brick wall. He is listed in the 1799 Greenbrier Tax List. Then disappears until he marries Elenor Metcalf in Madison Co KY 1804. Thanks a bunch,.........Leoneita
