Here is what little I know about the John Casey of Maury and Hardeman
County, Tennessee (assuming it is the same person).
Ancestors and children of this person are unknown. We assume that the
John Casey in Maury Co in 1820 is the same as the John Casey that is
later in Hardeman County. Elizabeth Casey, supposedly the daughter of
John and Margaret, was born in Maury County according to her
tombstone. She married a Spirons Rogers
in Hardeman County in 1836 and they moved to Arkansas where she died
in 1870.
John Casey is appointed to a road crew in Maury County in 1818 and is
also on the county tax list with 1 white poll, no acres on the north
side of the Duck River. Other Caseys in Maury County at the time are
Joel, Leonard White, Ira, Charles and George. Jonathan Ashworth
married Nancy Casey in 1820 and Benjamin Ashworth married Rebecca
Casey in 1821 in Maury County. Larry Ashworth believes the two are
daughters of John Casey.
John Casey is listed with 547 acres in a Hardeman County tax list of
1824.
John Casey died about 1839 in Hardeman County.
Purchasers at the estate sale of John Casey (1839) included:
John Russell, Aaron P. Casey, James A. Casey, Peter Honnell, S.
Rogers, A. Jackson, N. Jackson, James G. Casey, Harry ? Rogers,
Margaret Casey, presumably the widow of John, is in the household of
Spirons and Nancy Rogers in Bradley County Arkansas in 1850. She is
75 years of age and the birth state is listed as Pennsylvania.

Do you have any more info on this John Casey? I have a Thomas Casey
who
also had sons named John, George, Thomas Jasper and Aaron. Wonder if
there
might be a connection. Perhaps brothers [John and Thomas]. Do you
have any
record of who your John Casey's parents and/or siblings were?
Where
did he
come to Tenn. from?
