The name of Anthony's father is Casper. Casper had a brother Adolphus. The record from the IGI that I have on Adoph is: Adolphus Alers christened 06 May 1711 in Oldenburg (state) Bakum County, Romeish (town), Katholische Parish in Germany.
Parents:Johannes and Anna Catherina (Deels) Alers.
Adolph arrived in the colonies in 1743 then married Elizabeth christina Campbell 04 October 1744. He made his will in Frederick county VA. 13 Sept 1768 and it was probated 18 August 1770.
His children were:
Mark (Marcus), oldest son and admin.
Godfrey
Adolph
I have found my record on John Casper Aylor. He came over on the ship St. Mark with Capt. Wilson from Rotterdam. The name on my records was John Caspar Ahlas. One of his shipmates was Lorentz Crone. I am sure you will remember that name. The date they qualified was 26 September 1741. I believe this was 2 years before his brother Adolph Aylor came.
Notes from Jeff:
I checked on the internet for the ship lists she mentions and was able to find both of them. Not having any of the original research, I always question the IGI and how people make the connection between their ancestors and a particular ship, especially given the long list of Anthony Aylors I have listed arriving on ships earlier in this web page. However, this is the first evidence I have seen that proposes to link Anthony to his ancestors, so I am all ears!
