They called my gg granfather Sinclair Casey (Sink or Cinc)for short. Either
spelling Sinc or Sink is still sounded the same. He was born 1799. Very
interesting.

Thanks for that explanation. The South Carolina Archives sent me (many
years
ago) a typed copy of the Moses Casey will (All the other wills they sent
were copies of the original along with a typed copy) The witnesses were
listed
as Willis Casey, Sink Casey (Made her X) and Samuel G. Casey. I wondered
who
Sink was! I have Willis P. Casey and wife Sinah and 4 children on the 1850
DeKalb Co., AL census and I had written a note to remind me that the Index
to
Probate Court Files of Etowah Co 1867-1900 lists a W. P. Casey Estate 1872.
Guess I better check that out.

Tim, this is the Willis P. Casey later in DeKalb/Etowah Co. Alabama, at
least by 1840. His wife's name was Sinah, and she also was a witness to
the Moses Casey will under discussion. They're both found on Alabama
censuses after they moved there from Spartanburg. Willis P. Casey b 1805
