This is a rather interesting settlement for Christian Cassel's estate.
Christy died in 1834, yet his estate was not toally settled until 1877!!
More research on my part hopefully will reveal the whys of that. Anyhow, if
you would please look through this listing of recipients, perhaps you may
find a connection to one of your families. His children & grandchildren are
mentioned - if you might have any futher information on any of these
families, please contact me. BTW - I do have a fairly detailed descendancy
on daughter Elizabeth who married Fred Miller . Most of son Wilhelm's
(William) family moved to Putnam Co IL in the 1830's, save Sophia - love to
know more about her. Did she stay in Lebanon or Dauphin Co??
Thanks for reading this!
