I may have mis-stated John Levi's birthdate as around 1800. His children that I know
of were born in 1832, 1834 and 1838 in Alabama. He married in 1824 (as Levie Castle on
the Alabama Marriage Records) so I assumed that his birthdate was approximately 20 years
earlier. I have not considered the Georgia Cassels before-thank you for that lead. I do
have the information about the 40.15 acres for Charity Castle in the Montgomery land
office of the Land Patent Site. This is definitely my Charity Castle and this land was
given to her sons John and Thomas who subsequently moved to Wood County, Texas. She then
married Montgomery Gause in 1842 after John Levi's death but I can find no further
information on them.
I will investigate Benjamin F. Cassels/Castles/Castle and report back my findings. Thank
you so much for your information.
