There are many Casteels living in 1840 Ohio in the neighboring counties Coshocton, Licking, Muskingum with ages close to Jesse.
Probably related in some way. The most likely father of Jesse is Thomas Casteel b. 1753. Note that Jesse in 1850 Madison, Iowa, named three of his sons Mesach, John, and Jesse. The fact that Thomas is also known to have sons Jesse, John, and Masach indicates that Jesse in 1850 Madison county, is also the Jesse, son of Thomas.

Notes:
Thomas is the brother of Zadock Casteel b. 1750-1760 located in 1840 Monroe County, Ohio.
Another possibile family relation is Amos Casteel b. 1760-1770 and living in Marion County.

Richard Celest HICKS [Parents] was born 29 Sep 1917 in Olympia, Thurston County, WA. He died 26 Dec 2003 in Olympia, Thurston, Washington. Richard married Marjorie Adele WEATHERBIE.

Richard Celest Hicks was born in Lacey, Washington, September 29, 1917, to Celest Pendergast Hicks and Myrtle Emily Smith and died in Olympia, Washington, December 26, 2003, at the age of 86. Dick grew up on the family estate on Hicks Lake and attended Lacey grade school and then Olympia High School where he was quite the three sports star. He attended St. Martins College on a sports scholarship and received a try-out with the St. Louis Browns professional baseball team right before WW II began. He married Marjorie Adele Weatherbie on August 24th of 1941. After Pearl Harbor he enlisted in the U.S. Navy and immediately received an officer's commission and became a Navy pilot flight instructor since he had his pilot's license prior to enlisting

After the war Dick spent a couple of years in the transportation business and then joined with his stepfather Zaza F. Simmons and started what was to become the Simmons Oyster Company and later Simmons Seafood, Inc. Simmons Seafood also developed a frozen oyster stew and frozen oyster fries which were sold wholesale between Portland and Seattle. What started as a two-man operation eventually grew to several employees and later a chain of seafood restaurants at local fairs with two large seasonal fish and chip restaurants at the Puyallup fair of which Dick and Marjorie were also shareholders.

For many years Dick was an active Freemason and Past Master of Olympia Lodge No. 1. He was also a member of the Scottish Rite and Afiffi temple Shrine. His integrity was well respected, and even though a small oyster farmer from Olympia, he was asked to join the Board of Directors of the Portland, Oregon, Shriner's Children Hospital where he served with distinction for a number of years.

Later in life, Dick and Marjorie traveled, mostly the far East, including Hong Kong, Korea, Australia, and the Philippines. Dick and Marjorie celebrated their 50th Wedding Anniversary in 1991, and she unexpectedly died two months later.

Dick and Marjorie had three sons: Richard D. "Cork" Hicks (wife Dottie) of Olympia, Robert G. "Bob" Hicks of Seattle, and William A. "Bill" Hicks of Olympia. They had nine grandchildren and five great grandchildren. In the month prior to his death all nine grandchildren were able to visit him, some coming from as far away as Indiana and Texas.

So mote it be.
