I have Howard Best DICE, b. 11/18/1854 in McElhatten, d. 7/1/1922 in Antes
Fort married to Clara Anna BARGER, b. September 1858 in Antes Fort, d.
3/8/1927 in Antes Fort.

On her death certificate, Clara's parents are listed as George BARGER, b. in
PA, and Katharine CUSTARD, b. in PA. In the 1850 census of Lycoming County
I found George BARGER, age 20, living with the Daniel BOBST family in
Nippenose. The family enumerated immediately before the Bobst is the
William CUSTARD family. William has several children, one of which is
Catherine, age 16.

Does anyone know if this George BARGER and this Catherine CUSTARD are the
parents of Clara Anna BARGER? How is George BARGER of Nippenose related to
Jane BARGER, living with the Lewis MARTIN family in Williamsport in 1850, or
the Peter BARGER family in Clinton Twp. in 1850?

Is anyone else researching these lines?

Thanks and happy holidays!
