Hi Joan,
I am interested in your Absolom, son of William Causey. I believe I
have that in my Causeys. Was it the William Causey of Ireland, b. 1744?
I have an ancestor James Causey b. 1755 and had a son named Zebedee b. 1780.
I have reason bo believe these Causeys are related but can find nothing any
were that would connect them. The only thing that I have is that James
Causey had a brother named John and both served in the Revolutionary War..
Can find nothing about their ancestors. If u have any information regarding
this I would appreciate your letting me know.
Thanks,
Bob C.

who was born in Ireland and immigrated to Caroline Co. MD, then to SC
