Hi -
What I know:
Keziah Casey (1813-1890) m. John Lewis Adams (1811-1887) in Garrard Co,
KY Nov 1831.
Per marriage license of Keziah's daughter Clara B. Adams, Keziah was from
Lincoln Co, KY.
Census data:
Lincoln Co, VA/KY:
1790 - John Lincoln Casey
1800 - Christopher Casey
1810 - Christopher Casey (Casick), Levi(e) Casey
Garrard Co, KY
1820 - Stephen Casey
1820 - Levi Casey 310010-11010 I think that the female under 10
is Keziah
1830 - Stephen Casey
1830 - Levi Casey 21000010-01011010 female 15-20 is Keziah
1840 - Levi Casey 00110010-00011101 I suspect that Levi 40-50
should be 50-60
1840 - Levi Casey, Jr.
It APPEARS to me that Levi Casey is the father of Keziah.
Also (I am getting ahead of things here) it appears that the line goes from
John L Casey > Christopher > Levi > Levi, Jr.
Other research:
I have been researching Casey input from others and at times it appears
that "my" Levi is the same Levi that was born in S. Carolina and went to
Kentucky. However, I have also seen where "Kizziah" was born about 1830; but
this obviously is not the same woman as my Keziah (bn 1813).
A Levi Casey married Chloe Hill in Warren Co, KY in 1812; but "my" Levi
Casey already had a wife and 2 children under 10 by 1810. Therefore, if this
is the same Levi, he must have had another wife prior to Chloe Hill.
Any advice on this question would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks -
