John Giles to Henry Howe: "My wife and Squire Custer are cousins," said he, "and he married us." I used to keep school, and taught George his A, B, C's; his father and I were always great friends.

Robert F Custer was a son of Jacob and Sarah (Webster) Custer, with whose names shall ever remain pioneer honors in this section of Ohio, the latter been a daughter of William Webster, who came to this part of the state in an very early period. Jacob Custer was born at Jessups, Maryland, where his father Emanuel Custer, died when somewhat over 100 years of age. At an early period in the history of Ohio Emanuel Custer made a visit to this state, where he took up a section of government land - a property he later gave to his daughters, his children having been six in number: Jacob (the Harrison County pioneer), John and Emanuel (died in Maryland), Charlotte (Mrs. James Cummings), Susan (Mrs. John Hendricks), and Mary (Mrs. Joseph Cummings).
