Notes |
- It is possible Casper is Johann Kaspar Eller. According to J.G. Eller of the "Eller Family Association" in an address to the EFA Family Conference in Portland, Oregon, 1993, there is "...no evidence that he [Casper] came to America." This is also the view of EFA historian Ruth E. Goodman (112 N. Brookwood Ave., Rockingham, NC 28379). Both show Casper as the father of both Melker and Jacob Eller. There is some belief that Christian Eller is a third son of Casper Eller (and that Hook's speculation of Michael Eller as the father of Christian is incorrect).
- Ben Eller believes Casper/Kaspar Eller and Paul Eller are in fact, the same person, George Paul Kaspar Eller. Which is what we show here. However, this is unproven. [2]
