James,
My Grendfather was Horace Jackson Cason. He was born December 25th, 1883 in Georgia. We
are pretty sure that the Cason name is an adopted name. He was adopted by an Aunt. On the
1900 census he is listed as Horace Jackson Lane as a boarder in the household of James
Cason. We were told that he and his brother were adopted by a Cason Aunt. On the 1910
census he and his brother are listed as Cason in the household of Morgan Cason and
adopted. I have a copy oy his application for a ss card in 1937 that says that his father
and mother were James and Sarah Hunter Cason.
He married my Grandmother in 1913. We have no idea what happened to his brother. They were
raised in Hamilton County, Florida. If you find any information in your searches it would
great if you could share.
Don Strickland
