Two books about the Lesters that you ought to
know about:
The Lester Family by Marguerite Tise, 1997. This book is available in PDF format for download.
My Ancestors by Leonard G. Lester, 1968. This booklet is 35 pages long and includes more statistics than Marguerite's book, mainly census information. It also includes photographs of the cemetery and tombstones where John and Catherine Lester are buried. [These photographs were taken by me c.1960.] You should get this one, too. It is only $6.50, postage paid. Write:
