Your John William Cason is the grandfather to Edwin Mims Cason, Jr., my X-husbands
grandfather. I do not have John Wm's parents or siblings but would like to exchange
information. I have been working on this family for some time. John Wm. born 1/4/1828,
died 10/28/1908 is buried in Oakland Cemetery in Atlanta, Fulton County, Georgia. There
are other family members buried with them there. His wife, Sarah Ann Matilda Allen/Cason
is also buried there with him. I presently have seven children listed for them. Edwin,
Jr., was an undercover policeman for the city of Atlanta, Ga. He was involved in a car
wreck in Hall Co, Georgia and died 10 days later from complications of the wreck. His
wife, Alma Carter/Cason died just 10 months later in Atlanta, Fulton Co, Georgia for
unknown reasons. They are buried in separate cemeteries. If you are kin to this family,
please contact me. My X-husband lives in Newnan, Georgia and is most interested in what I
can find on his family.
