1. According to the Amish Genealogies John Berkey was previously
married. It could also be that Elizabeth Seese was married to a George
Helman the brother of Elizabeth Helman who married Melchoir Seese Jr.
[George Lint] [It is Melchoir Jr's daughter Elizabeth who married
George Helman - Brian L. Cartwright, 3 Sep 1998]
All other researchers I've contacted (except George Lint) have both
sisters Catherine and Elizabeth married to Frederick Custer Jr.
Because the 1850 census has 14 year old Hannah Custer in the household
of John and 44 year old Elizabeth Burkey, it appears that Elizabeth
had a daughter by a previous husband named Custer, who could then be
Frederick. I find no evidence so far for George Helman. It is possible
that Frederick married Catherine, she died, he then married Elizabeth,
fathered Hannah, then he died. Elizabeth remarried John Berkey who had
a son by his previous marriage. It's also possible she was appointed
guardian for her sister's minor daughter. It was Elizabeth, not
Catherine (as George Lint reports) who is living as John Berkey's wife
in 1850.
