Probably the daughter of Paulus Van Haren Küster & Gertrude Kuster but documentary evidence is lacking.
Alternatively, she was the Margaret Kuster baptized 3-19-1694 at Germantown, daughter of Johannes Kuster & Elizabeth Kuster

Margaret Kuster was born 1690, in Kaldenkirchen, Dist. Viersen, Westphalia (Germany). Margaret died between 1714 and 1760. [1] [2] [3] [4]
"It seems probable that Margaret Koster who married Cornelius De Weese is the daughter of Paulus and Gertrude Kusters, but there is no known proof of this. The strongest evidence for Margaret as a daughter of Paulus is the fact that Cornelius DeWeese signed Paulus' will by his mark. Margaret is believed to have been born about 1690 and to have married Cornelius DeWeese about 1708. Their first child was baptized by Paulus Van Vlecq." [5]
"...Cornelius and Margaret had six children:
Cornelius Deweese was presumably the son of Garret Hendricks de Wees who settled in Germantown, Province of Pennsylvania in 1689 with his 3 sons and one daughter, Wilhelmina who married Nicholas Rittenhouse. His second son, Cornelius, born in Holland, settled in Skippack Township in the Perkiomen region, on a farm which he and his brother William bought in partnership in 1708. He married Margaret Koster or Kuster and had several children. Cornelius Dewees chose the occupation as farmer and took up residence in what is now Montgomery County. His descendants are scattered throughout PA, OH and other states having amassed fortunes by tilling the soil. In 1708 Cornelius moved to the Van Bebber tract, which comprised what is now Perkiomen Township. Both Cornelius and his brother William sent their children to the school taught by Francis Daniel Pastorius at Germantown.
