Charles Chrisman
Born 1775, Charles Chrisman married Catherine, the daughter of Jacob Custer who lived up in Brock's Gap. Jacob was a predecessor of the famous General Custer who took a hard stand against Indians. The Custer family were widely known and respected woodmen and trappers who roamed the hills of what became West Virginia. There were a number of Chrismans in Rockingham for 1810, though none appeared as property owners in 1815. Apparently we have another family which for one reason or another were involved in westward migration. Charles apparently died in 1812. He was the son of George Chrisman (see below), son of the union of Joist Hite's daughter Madeline and Jacob Chrisman. From the early days, Chrismans had owned substantial lands south of those of Lincoln and Bryan. His mother was part of family which produced many soldiers and hunters, including the General Armstrong Custer of the Battle of the Big Horn.
