Hi Elaine,
Recently I purchased the book. "Gone Home" which is a directory of the
Deceased and Items of History of Holt County, Missouri-1837 - 1981 by
Eileen DERR.
"CACY (see CASEY) found on page 60.
William CACY who for some months past has been an inmate of the County
Farm , died in great agony from effects of eating too many sour
cherries." Holt Co. Press June 25, 1885."
The next two were found on page 65:
"CASEY (see CACY)
William CASEY of the Poor Farm died Sunday.
M.C. News - June 26, 1885.
Capt. Jacob S. CASEY (Co. G. 4th MO. Inf) was shot and killed near Troy,
Kans, while attempting to protect his claim on an island six miles from
Troy. (M.C. News Apr 6, 1900)
Note: This was printed in a local Holt Co. paper with the implication
that Mr. CASEY'S name was familiar to Holt Countians"
I tried to copy verbatim and sure hope it helps someone.
