Description

Heinrich Peter Kaÿser, son of Conrad & Anna Christina Kaÿser, was baptized on 5 March 1715 in Buches, near Büdingen. He married there on 11 April 1739 to Anna Margaretha from Binsaches (perhaps Bindsachen). They had at least five children baptized there: Anna Margaretha (30 May 1744), Johann Conrad (22 May 1746), Johannes (26 December 1753), Christian (25 July 1756), and Anna Leonora (25 March 1759).

Anna Margaretha married Ludwig Henkel/Hinkel. Konrad married Gertraude Müller. These two couples, along with the Kaiser parents and other siblings arrived in Messer on 18 June 1767 and are recorded there in the 1767 Census in Household Nos. 47-49.
