He is the child of Finley and Mary Custer, of German descent. Henry labored at home until twenty-nine years old. At this age, in June, 1852, he married Miss Ann Eliza Bechtol, and they immediately set their faces westward After a toilsome journey they landed in the then forest wilds of Wabash County, where Mr. Custer purchased eighty acres of land with $400, and that he had gradually accumulated while living at home. This land served as a nucleus around which he has made additions, until now he is the possessor of 346 acres of fine land -- a property that has been gained by earnest labor on his part, nobly assisted by his wife, who has been indeed a helpmate to him. They have been the parents of nine children, of whom John W., Sarah Jane, Anna L., William Henry, J. Milton, Florence, Arthur and Thomas E. are still living. Six of these children are still under the parental roof, being taught habits of industry by their father and mother, who are conscientious members of the Methodist Church.
