They are my 5th great grandparents. The last word on the couple is that they died while traveling to Berkley County, VA (now WV) in 1770. There is further information that David Casto, Sr. had a 400-acre land grant at the head of the Buffalo River in Monongalia, WVa. I am curious as to what these 400-acre grants were, I have seen them referenced since. I have seen the reference to this acreage and the assignee being Hannon. Have been trying to find the gravesites of David and Phoebe, and information about what happened to them.

In the legal matter above Matthew Hannon was the assignee of a David CASTO. My own brick wall involves the Hoover Casto marriage of my own GGG grandparents. Did you run across any data on this CASTO fellow? My GGG-Grandad Samuel Hoover was born in PA in the summer of 1813. He had an older brother named William Hoover born 1805-6 also in PA. Any clues welcomed! First, thanks for all of this great work on the Hoover saga.
