General Notes: Husband - John E. Kaster

---

He was born in Northampton County, Pennsylvania. [HCC 1887, xxvii]

He was a prominent business man of his district, and was justice of the peace for a number of years. He became engaged in the foundry business at Keystone Foundry, know as the firm of Kaster & Lee. He also carried on an extensive farming business. Owing to a dispute in the firm of Kaster & Lee, Mr. Kaster purchased the Rimersburg foundry property from James Feely in 1864, and made his son, S. Harkey, superintendent of the business. They formed the firm of J. E. Kaster & Son, and in 1881 the firm of S. H. Kaster & Brother became their successors. They had, in connection with their foundry business, a full line of shelf hardware and agricultural implements.

He was a Democrat, and a Lutheran, but his first wife was a Presbyterian.
