Trish,
Wow...there are a lot of similarities with names, dates and cities. I know
very little about my Case line, but I think this information came from the
1860 Elkhart County census (I'll dig through files and check that source
tomorrow). Which of Thomas's children are you a descendant of? Do you know
if William and Jeannie had any children?
My grandmother was Lois Margaret Case, born in Chicago in 1918 to Frank J.
Case and Winifred Neighbors.
Let's try and piece this together. I'll check more of my notes.
Scott

Hi Scott,
I wonder if there are two men named Thomas D. Case? My
great-great-grandfather was Thomas Day Case, b. 8 Aug 1830 in Wayne Co.,
OH.
On 10 Sept 1850, he married Jane Wagoner. They lived in OH, until
1853 or
1854, when they moved to Elkhart Co, Indiana. Their children were:
Samuel Nelson CASE, b. 1851 in OH
Elizabeth Angela CASE, b. 1853 in OH
Philip Harrison CASE, b. 1854 in IN
William Henry CASE, b. 1856 in IN(he married Jeannie Lamb Stewart in
Nebraska)
Edwin Lincoln CASE, b. 1860 in IN
Thomas Jefferson CASE, b. 1862 in IN
Sarah Jane (Jennie) CASE, b. 1866 in IN
Minnie Mae CASE, b. 1869 in IN
They continued moving West in the mid 1870's, homesteading several tracts
in
Hamilton County, Nebraska. T.D. and wife Jane are buried in the
Case
Cemetery in Hamilton Co.
I'm afraid there must be two families that resemble each other. Have you
found your CASEs in the IN census? Can anyone else help?
Regards,
Trish
