He was born Heinrich Kasselberg in Bakersdorf, Germany and emigrated to Pennsylvania in 1683. In 16 91, Henry Kasselberg initiated naturalization proceedings in a group of sixty-two Germans including Francis Daniel Pastorius; their request was denied at the time because they did not own land. TheGe rman men were finally naturalized in 1709. Henry Casselberry was a bachelor in 1695 but was married by 1698. He and his wife Katrin were Mennonites and attended services in the log Meeting House at Ge rmantown. By the time of his death in 1729, Henry Casselberry had moved to the region now known as Providence Township. In his will (signed Henry Casselberry) he left half of his property to his wife and the other half to their son '''Derrick Casselberry.''' The Casselberry family seems to have left the Mennonite faith during the early part of the eighteenth century. One historian found eviden ce that the family attended Mennonite services at Methacton. Henry Casselberry’s son Paul, however, was associated with the Great Valley Baptist Church near Paoli and later with the St. JamesEpisco pal Church at Evansburg. The Casselberry family was associated with St. James for two centuries after the first evidence of their affiliation in 1736, when Paul Casselberry signed a petition to the So ciety for the Propagation of the Gospel (an Anglican missionary society) asking for a change in the ministry at St. James. Jacob Casselberry was a pew holder at St. James in a 1788 list.[3] -------- ------------ Will of Henry Casselberry August 16, 1729 Perkoiomen Region Vol. 12, 1934; in Penn State Library: Will if Henry Casselbery, made August 16, 1729, proved 4 September 1729.
