Does anyone have a copy of the book that would be willing to look for
the following 4 people?
Abraham Brouwer
Mary Wilt Brouwer
Alexander Cameron
Sophia Brouwer Cameron
All I have for certain on them is that Mary and Abraham are supposed to
be buried at the Bunker's Hill Cemetary and supposedly died after 1810.
Is the book still available for purchase? or does anyone know which
Libraries may have it?
Thanks,
Laurie

Trying very hard to find more information on my CUSTER connection. Franklin
Pierce CUSTER wed a woman named Willa/Willy OTTY in Martinsburg. They had
three children. One was Edith Virginia who wed a Benjamin Barger, another
was a B. Frank Custer who relocated by 1911 to Ohio and the third was a
daughter named Pearl. When I looked to the census records, I find "Pearl
Elder". She married a David Samuel Catrow and lived in McKeesport, PA. She
died in the 1960's and her obit names her as "Elder Pearl" Catrow.
The 2004 Morgan Morgan Reunion will be held Sunday, August 8th @ 12:30 PM.
For further details and directions please e-mail me and I will forward you a invitation.
If you are a Morgan, or you are related to a Morgan, you are privileged to have access to a vast amount of fascinating Morgan information that could change your life forever.
Hope to see you there.

In 1911, Franklin Pierce Custer was buried at Green Hill according to
newspaper accounts of the day. His burial is not noted in the printed Green
Hill Cem. abstract. I assume he was buried without benefit of a monument.
I'm wondering who else might be buried on the "family" plot. He was married
at the time of his death to a Willa (aka Nellie or Willie) Otty Custer.
If I wrote to the Green Hill Cem on Burke St., what are the chances I would
hear a reply? Is there another place where cem. records are kept t
Sorry if this seems posted twice. I didn't see the original posting should
there have been one. I still am in need of some help locating this family
buried at Green Hill. Thanks, Karen
