The CASEY family I am searching also came from Ireland in 1833, arriving at
the Port of Boston on Aug. 20, 1833. William about age 50, arrived with
Mary age 15, Thomas 11, Catherine 9, Michael 7, Mark 5. My father said one
of the family died enroute (we think perhaps it was the wife) and was buried
at sea. But family stories are that they came from County Sligo by way of
Liverpool. Do you see anything familiar here? View my family page at

Subject: [CASEY-L] RE: Westmeath to Nova Scotia
Hello: I am searching for a connection with a Casey family of
Westmeath County, Ireland. My Catherine Casey married to Michael Hanson
(Henson) left Ireland for Nova Scotia circa 1833. Catherine died
enroute and was buried at sea. The family went to Troy, New York, Ross
County, Ohio and finally settled in Iowa County, Iowa. Michael and his
wife Catherine lived near Athlone, Westmeath Co. Catherine was
Michael's second wife (first wife Mary Kilduff). Thanks for any help
in my search for Catherine's Casey family. Cecelia
