This is where my Caswell line ends. Cassie Lavenie Caswell and David Wesley
Harris are my great-great-grandparents.
Children of Cassie Lavenie Caswell and David Wesley Harris:
1. Cassie S. Harris born 8 May 1884 in Columbia County, Arkansas; died 6

for Columbia County, Arkansas.
Martha Williamson Wise who is a great-great-granddaughter to Cassie Lavenie
Caswell and David Wesley Harris. Martha emailed me recently and told me that
her father used to visit Lavenie Harris when she was an old woman. He knew her
as Grandma Harris. Martha said that the above 3 daughters are the only
children of Cassie Lavenie Caswell and David Wesley Harris.
There is a Caswell book called The Caswell Family The Descendants of William
Caswell. This book was compiled by Mary Underwood Caswell which lists 5 other
children for Lavenie and David Harris. Does anyone know who these children
are and who they belong to?
