Born on September 15, 1900, Mabel Susan spent her whole life in East Greenville and Red Hill.  A pioneer woman, she entered the teaching profession by the age of 19, graduated from “Westchester Normal School,” completing at least three years, and held multiple teaching certificates. In 1984, she was named a “Sustaining Member” of the Century Club of the Perkiomen School.

She married Russell Custer on August 1, 1925, after which she appears to have left the teaching profession for a simpler job as a sewer in the local dress factory. In 1930, the family lived at 319 State Street in East Greenville, and in 1940 they lived on West 3rd Street in Red Hill.

Mabel died on November 2, 1985 and is buried at Palm Schwenkfelder Church in Palm, PA.
