Pvt. Joseph Custer was married at Pymatuning Twp., Mercer Co., PA. to Nancy M. Drake, 18 August 1861. He was my great grandfather's youngest brother. He "went over the hill and we never saw him again."
He was married by Squire Daniel Stanbaught, son-in-law of Benjamin Custard. Nancy M. Drake Custer-Sample. [William Sample] was an undertaker. Nancy had a son, Myrum M. Custer, b. 18 May 1862. Looking for obituary of Joseph Custer, 1864. Her widows pension was #39,846. I welcome any information on this family. Norma Custer Rice
