Hi Scott,
Happy New Years to you as well.
My Casey's came from the township of Annagh, Parish Murroe, in County
Limerick. Last April I took my first visit to Ireland, and found that
my Casey ancestors also reached into County Tipperary. We found a few
Casey burials of interest near the town of Newport in Tipperary.
Here's a few links you may find of interest..
Michael Casey (1850/Annagh,Limerick - 1988/Chicago), is my immigrant
ancestor

Michael Casey (in Rockvale Cemetery near Newport, County Tipperary),
this Michael is a half-nephew of my above GG Grandfather Michael.

and if you have any interest in our story of Casey hunting in
Tipperary, and how to cross a field with a 'Beware of Bull' sign to
reach a graveyard, look here:

One more link, a pitch to all to join the Casey Surname DNA project.
The more members we have, the better odds of a breakthrough for all of
us!

I don't have an apparent connection to Richard's posting but it
reminded me that I haven't posted in a long time and that I hadn't
seen any CASEY activity in a long while.
I am wondering if there are any CASEY researchers that have roots in
Co Tipperary and their family ended up on the East Coast of the
U.S. My family ended up in / around MA ariybd tge 1870s to 1880s.
Happy New Year,
Scott
