There are two leading cemetery choices:
Cold Water Lutheran
Poplar Tent Lutheran (Poplar tent has no Milster, Misenheimers or Russell burials)
Cold Water is the most likely as his daughter is buried here.
Frederick and Dorothy's children include:
Barbara Milster (Russell)
John Michael Milster
Hannah D. Milster (Brians)
David George Milster
Mary Polly Milster (Misenheimer)
Elizabeth Milster
Daniel Washington Milster
Frederick was we believe a minister as he officiated at numerous weddings (although he could be a Judge, magistrate or justice of the peace).
He owned one of the original city parcels on the main street in Concord NC. He obtained a land grant for acreage along the three branch creek (about half mile from Cold Water Lutheran Church.
We have two different accounts one handed down from my grandfather and one from notes from the Cline family bible (that another wing of the family has)... Frederick (his actual Hessian last name unknown) was in his early teens and snatched from his bed and pressed into service as a soldier and sent to the colonies to fight for the British. He "went over the hill" and joined the colonists and supposedly fought in several battles.
The handed down account says he became an aid to Washington... (no paper trail there). He settled for a brief time in Pennsylvania then moved to Cabarrus County, (Concord) NC. (land grant listed above)
