    Biography Hans Gusstafsson [Justis] (Brandywine hundred) was born in 1662, the fourth son of Johan and Brita Gustafsson of Kingsessing. By 1687 he had moved to Brandywine hundred, wherein 1690 he was granted 300 acres with Israel Helm, Jr. On 25 Mar 1697, Hans Justice witnessed the will of Oliver Cope who lived on Naaman's Creek in Brandywine hundred. Two years later he and his wife Maria were assigned pews in Holy Trinity Church. In 1701 he was a resident of Marcus Hook, Chester County, but he soon moved to the head of the Northeast River in Cecil County, Maryland. He was living at that location on 16 Nov 1710 when he was visited by pastors Bjork and Sandel on the occasion of his daughter Lydia's marriage to Rev. Jonas Auren. He died shortly thereafter; his son John Justis and Andrew Friend were administrators of Lydia Auren's Cecil County estate in 1715. Hans and his wife Maria were also parents of Paul, William, Peter, and Mans Gustafsson or Justis.
