      John A House: "Pioneers of Jackson County":
      Nicholas Casto married Lilletha Casto, daughter of Williiam. The two families were in some way connected, and both came from the valley of the Buckhannon River.
      The schoolhouse where Nicholas Casto attended was of poles about twelve by fourteen, without joists, and about as high to the square as a man's head.
      Nicholas was a man of intelligence and progress, and lived on Tug Fork. He was captain of Home Guards, member of Legislature, Justice of the Peace, and three times President of Board of Supervisors, also publisher of 'Social Songster' Hymn book.
      His son, George N, Casto, long a school teacher and four years a Justice of Washington District, is now serving as deputy sheriff.
