Notes
- A Hessian Auxiliary soldier with the Hanau Jaegercorp (Chasseurs), a military unit that came to Canada during the American Revolution to serve with the British. Originally from "Gelhar" (possibly Gelnhaar, located northeast of Frankfurt) in the county of Hanau, Germany. Caspar was discharged in Canada in 1783, married in 1787 and apparently settled in the Laprairie, Quebec area where many (most, all?) of his children were married. Surname seen as NEEDING and NIDING, and given name seen as Gaspard and Gerhardt in the parish registers of Quebec. For simplicity, I have chosen to standardize on NIDING for the descendents of Caspar.<br />
