This is the migration that my Case family took. John Case was born in Ohio,
1806 - 1808, we think Adams County, then to Floyd County, where he married
Susanna Gunn, and Parke County, Indiana, where my Great Grandfather, and
several of his brothers were born. The family then moved to Keokuk County,
Iowa. Susanna died in childbirth in 1853. John then married Hannah Gaskell,
and had 4 more children. They were divorced in 1865, at which point John
disappears. His sons, John F., George C., James H., and Reuben all died in
the Civil War, in a period from December 31, 1862 to October 9, 1863. Two
other sons, Lorenzo, who was captured at Marks Mills, Ar., and Benjamin H.
Case also served in the Civil War. Two other sons, William W. and Peter L.
Case were too young to serve. There was also a daughter, Nancy Jane Case
Carlile. I would appreciate it if you would check to see if there is a
possibility of a connection. We are at a brick wall with Old John. Would
love to be able to find his parents, or some info on him.
Thanks for your time.
