Subject: Rufus Casey Family of Spartanburg SC
Here is a descendancy report that I made from Walter E. Casey manuscript on Rufus Casey.
This will be on the Casey and Allied Family site with more than I put here as I am
updating the descendants. It is 1 thru 4 generations.
I do not have proof of any of this other than census records given to me.
James Addison Neighbors sent this information to Walter E. Casey in 1968 , seventeen years
for the Casey and Allied Families manuscript was published in 1980.
As you can see I am sharing the file for those who may be able to find Rufus Casey
parents. They are unknown.
Again this is only research not a proven tree but we can as a group find this proof. If
Rufus was in the Enoree river area he has a father.
Again proof is needed!!!!
