Message Board Post:
My great great great grandfather was Captain James Dixon Caskey of Lancaster, South
Carolina. Do you know the relationship between James Dixon Caskey and J (James?)
Jefferson Caskey? In the 1860 census, J Jefferson Caskey was living with Eli A Caskey.
Eli A Caskey never married. Both He and J Jefferson were in the Civil War and survived
the war. Eli A is a son of James Dixon Caskey. I lost touch with J Jefferson Caskey after
the Civil War and wondered what happened to him and his relationship to Eli. Cousins or
Brothers?
Also, is Samuel Caskey a brother to James Dixon Caskey? And who are James Dixon's
parents?
I have wondered if James Dixon's parents were from Penn and he came down south. Also,
if his parents spelled their last name differently?
Thank you so much! I live near Lancaster and plan to visit Gills Creek Cemetery where
many Caskeys are buried when the weather gets cooler. Susan R
