He lived on Tug Fork. ~ John A House: 'Pioneers of Jackson County': pg 136 John J. Casto, or "Big John" Casto, was a son of John Casto. He lived on the Elijah Rollins farm for a number of years, but sold it and moved to another place just above George Casto's. His wife was Gracey McDade, supposed by my informant to be a daughter of the Samuel McDade who was one of the first settlers at the mouth of Mill Creek. [James McDade, not Samuel...b] They had five sons in the Union Army Land Grant Casto, John J 100 acres Mill Creek 1844, Book 1, page 188
