Hi Cynthia,
Thanks for the additonal information. My late wife was the gg-grandaughter of Thomas
Marion. Her line is Thomas Marion Cast > John Robert Cast> Robert Clyde Cast >
Frankie Mae Cast > Shirley Louise Bond.
Did you make it to the Cast reunion last year. I met Jim there, that is if he is the Jim
Cast from Lawton.
Do you think there were some confusion about her being married to a Harris because the
husband you know she married had the middle name of Harris?

The information I have from an ancestry file I have that was
researched and
confirmed by my cousin, Jim Cast, is that the Nancy Ellen Cast (sister of
Thomas Marion Cast who is our great grandfather) married James Harris "Hill"
Verner, son of Caleb Verner and Jane O. Hill, of May 8, 1866, in Monroe, Alabama.
Shows James was born August 10, 1829, in SC and died April 2, 1899, in Wise
Co., Texas. Shows Ellen was born in 1842 in Alabama. Her brother, Thomas Marion
was born in 1845 in Pontotoc Co., MS
Children of Nancy Ellen Cast and James Harris "Hill" Verner:
Jane Verner b. 1857 in MS
Charles Verner b. 1860 in MS
William Verner b. 1859 in MS
John Verner b. 1854 in MS
Mary Ellen Lee Verner b. 1870
There is also a note that she married someone with the last name Harris but
there is not any additional information. I have not confirmed any of this
information myself, am using printed Ancestry file Jim gave to many of us who are
his cousins.
I hope this helps.
Cynthia
