This tells of John Gasper (or Casper) Phillip Byerley who came from
Germany to Charleston, SC aboard the ship Caldeonia on 7 Feb. 1752.
I received this information from Doris Fountain .http://www.tennessee-connection.com/genealogy/byerley/byerley.htm
This web page also indicates that Martin Byerley/Byerly was a son of
Gasper and also identifies Martin's 6 known children, all of which
eventually moved to TX.
