I think that my Kassell family brickwall is about 1860 - 1865 with the
birth of great great grandma Emma Kassell Campbell. She told my mom
that the names Margaeth, Valentine and Jacob were all in the family.
According to census records her parents were born in Germany - I have
yet to find her in a census record as a child. There are some Valentine
Kassell -s in Missouri and maybe a Valentine Kissell in ILL. I'd love
to compile a list of VALENTINE Kassell / Kissell / Castle .. sort of
miscellaneous facts .. perhaps it will help all of us.
Happy Holidays. Pat

Gentry Co, MO
THey married Aug 15, 1811, in Greene Co.
I have that her parents are Peter Cassel and Elizabeth Gragg from pretty
reliable source. THe ancestry down to Peter has been given as:
Julius Yelles Cassel> Johannes Cassel m. Mary ?> ? Cassel> Jacob Cassel>
Valentine m. Mary ?> Peter
Juluis down to Jacob were from Germany. Jacob immigrated and Valentine
was b. abt 1730, Pennsylvania and d. Sep 4 1804, Pendelton CO, VA.
Does anyone on the list have info on this line? I have also seen Greene
County Records that list the name as Castle.
Thanks, Ellen
