Hi Listers,
I am a Cassel through my grandmother Helena Allebach Cassel. I have an unknown Cassel
married to another distant relation known as Mary Conver Cramer b.29 June 1889 d. Dec 1972
according to the SSDI.
I know she married a Cassel because her sister's Obit tells me she was Mary Cassel,
and that is her name through the SSDI. See below:
Gospel Herald - Volume 72, Number 34 - August 21, 1979 page 678
Benner, Ellen C., daughter of Edwin and Susan (Conver) Craemer, was born in Montgomery
Co., Pa., Aug. 25, 1890; died at Rockhill Mennonite Community Home, Sellersville, Pa.,
July 20, 1979; aged 88 y. She was married to Joseph M. Benner, who died in 1953. Surviving
are 2 daughters (Kathryn Benner and Mrs. Mary Barbara Nice), 8 sons (Edwin, Garret,
Christian, Joseph, Willard, Linford, Leon, and Samuel Benner), 37 grandchildren, and 41
great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by 2 sisters (Mary Cassel and Mrs. Bertha
Landes). She was a member of Souderton Mennonite Church, where funeral services were held
on July 23, in charge of Richard C. Detweiler and Russel B. Musselman; interment in
Souderton Mennonite Cemetery.
Any help anyone can give will be greatly appreciated.
