[CASEY-L] Caseys of Ontario
by mark, nancy, & caitlin
We are also searching for information re CASEYs in Canada, but our line
can be traced back to Peterborough County, Onatario. My ggg Grandfather
was Michael C(?) CASEY, who married Ellen Mahoney after 1825, probably
in Douro Township, Peterborough County. Ther children born in Canada
were Cathline, Mary, Patrick, William, John, Michael, Eugene, and
others. Most of these migrated to eastern Iowa by 1850's then to
Richardson County, Nebraska by 1868. If this family sounds familliar to
anyone that may have information to share, particularly place of birth
in Ireland for Michael C or how he came to Canada, we would very much
appreciate hearing from you. Family stories are that Michael Casey was
removed from Ireland and came to Canada on a cattle boat under less than
voluntary circumstances, but would love to find some documentation of
this.
Thank You
