Birth*circa 1695Johannes Casper was born circa 1695.1 
He was the son of Thomas Gasper and (?) Vandevere.2,3 
Marriage*1 October 1719Johannes Casper married Maria Baner, daughter of Isaac Claesson Baner and Maria Jacquet, on 1 October 1719 at Swedish Luthern Church, Penns Neck, Salem Co., New Jersey.4,5 
Note*Acrelius states "The daughter [of Isaac Baner, named Maria] was married to a respectable man, whose mother was of the family of Philip van der Weer.]. This implies that a Van Devere was the mother of Laurence Casper, who married Maria Baner, implying further that Thomas Gasper married a VanDevere.3 
Note"However, since the Germans, who adhere to the Swedish congregation, already had a burial place [laid out] where many of their dead lie buried, it was finally decided, after much difficulty, to build a Church there, that is, on Johannes Casper's land, down by the River."6 
Name Variation1 October 1719 As of 1 October 1719, Johannes Casper was also known as Johan Casper.5

Part of 174 acres that was listed with the West Jersey Society, known as the Alloways Creek Tract and sold by them to John and Reuben Jurman in 1754.
