He purchased land at the Steubenville Office on Dec. 3, 1822. His residence was Morgan County, Ohio. His brother Peter also purchased land the same day.
A Moler family history by Charles and Lydia Moler states that Casper went to Ohio and died 17 Feb 1849. On further search, I found the abstract of Casper's Revolutionary War pension file. It reads: Moler, Gasper, S2874, Va line, sol was b about 1759 3 miles above Harper's Ferry on the Potomac River, he lived in Berkeley Co Va at enl & also srv as a sub for his bro Jacob Moler & after the Rev he moved to Bedford Co Pa for 14 yrs then moved to Washington Co Pa for 18 yrs then moved to Pittsburgh Pa for 8 yrs then moved to Morgan Co Oh where he app 1 19 or 29 Oct 1832 a res of Manchester Oh, Sol had m about 4 or 5 yrs after his srv (wife wasn't named), sol d 17 Feb 1843.
The will of Casper named only his wife Elizabeth and youngest son, Isaac. Elizabeth was to receive her one-third and Isaac to get the remainder of Casper's real estate. John had died the month following the will and Peter may have already received his share. No daughters were mentioned, they may have received a nice dower upon marriage . The will was written on 11 February 1837 and didn't enter probate until 19 May 1845. Joseph Climer wrote the will for Casper and was one of the witnesses. At the filing of the will, the other witness, William Bailey, had left the area. The Morgan estate docket (Bk A, pl03 ) states "May 21, 1845, will of Casper Moler dec. duly proven & ordered together with the proof thereof to be recorded. Isaac Moler the executor in the will named gave bond with Dan'1 Fowler & Philip Brooks his security in the sum of $200,= Appraisers appointed = Order to appraisers isssued = Letters issued & delivered to Ex. May 21, 1845. W ill & proof Recorded = Copy of will & c made out = $3.67 (fees) Rec May 1847 from Isaac Moler" This only tells us that Isaac was in the area in 1847.
In 1790 Casper was in Bedford County, Pa. and had two sons under the age of 16 and one daughter. In 1800 he was in Washington Co, Pa. with two sons under age 10, 1 son 10/16, and one daughter under 10. I n 1830 he is in Manchester Twp, Morgan, Ohio. He and Elizabeth are both age 60 to 70 and one son (Isaac) age 20 to 30. They lived next door to Peter. Considering the census, only two daughters are listed and three sons. So far I have not found the treasury warrant that CC Moler mentioned, but I wonder how all those girls on the warrant with I saac could have been Casper's.
Casper's actual pension application states that he was living in Berkeley Co, Va at the time he enlisted about June 1778 under the comm and of Col. Morrows and in the Company commanded by Capt. Weatherton. He tells of the trip they made to Fort Lawrence where he was placed under the company of Capt. Andrew Swearingen and they remained th e winter, leaving soon after peace was made with the Indians about th e first or second week of March. Somewhere between Fort Lawrence and Wheeling, on the return trip, Casper and two other men were attached by Indians. One man was wounded, one killed, and Casper was shot between the sholders. The discharge he received from Capt. Swearingen was lost. He remained with his father for about four or five years, until he got married, then remained one more year. He then moved to Bedford, Pa for about 14 years, to Washington Co, Pa for about 18 years, to Pittsburgh in Allegheny, Pa for about 8 years, then to Morgan Co, Ohio. When asked for names of some persons to whom he was known in his present neighborhood, he responded with Hon. Judge David Fulton, David Stevens, Esqr., Peter Moler and Cornelius Gragg. All names we recrossed off in the sworn affidavit except Peter Moler, with Enoch Dean's name added, as residents of Manchester Twp, Morgan, Ohio. Both Casper and Peter signed with a mark. Casper's file states he die d 17 February 1845. 13 April 1929 3 photos(copies) were sent to H.L. Costley, the Al l States Hotel, Inc., Washington D.C.; 21 May 1930 a history to Mr. Arthur L. Moler, Union Trust Company, Cleveland, Ohio; and 8 August 1931 a history to Velma McElhiney, McConnelsville, Ohio. Velma also req nested information on John Mahana, Mass. Continental.
The GLO (Government Land Office) has a record of Casper receivin g a patent on E1/2NW, S 30, T 7N, R 10W, Ohio River Survey, 82.28 acres, Zanesville Land Office, 20 August 1823 (certificate #324). Peter received a patent on the same date, W1/2NW, same coordinates (certi ficate #319). This combined with the pension and
census records would point to Peter being Casper's son. John Moller received a patent o n W1/2NE, S 30, T 7N, R 10W, Ohio River Survey, 82.28 acres, Zanesville Land Office on 1 June 1831. This would be John Adam. He did not show up until about that time. Still, it points to John Adam being Casper's son. Since both Peter and John received patents, it could have been a gift from Casper, hence Isaac being the only one listed in the will. Isaac was not in the 1850 census. Further work will have to be done on this family.
There was also a Henry Moler who was listed in Manchester Twp in 1822. The 1820 and 1830 census show Henry in Centre Twp, Morgan, Ohio . Henry was born between 1780 and 1790. This may be the same Henry to receive a patent in 1826 on land in the Somerset, Perry, Ohio area . Henry was found in Athens Co in 1840 and
his children (some on the 1840 Athens census) and widow, Margaret, were found outside of Somerset in 1850. Could this be one of Casper's sons?
The History of Noble gives a history of Brookfield Baptist Church . The church was organized on 8 February 1825 and three of the members who joined in the first year were Lydia M. Moler, Caspar Moler, and Elizabeth Moler.
