My grandfather Abraham Causey of Horry Co., SC was, I beleave, Mark's brother:
My name is John (nick-named Jack) Stacey Causey, Born November 14,1946
in Portsmouth, VA, then Norfolk County, now, Chesapeake county. I now live at
9220 Campo Road, Spring Valley, CA, 91977-1119. Located just east of San Diego
I have two brothers, James Leslie Causey now in Northern Virginia, born 24
Apr 1950 in Myrtle Beach, SC, and Edward Lawrence Causey now in San Diego,
California, born 14 June 1952 in Portsmouth, VA.
My father, John Chandler Causey was born Dec. 19, 1922 in Myrtle Beach,
SC. His parents were Abraham (B. ?), and Floria Causey. I believe Floria's
maiden name was Causey but not sure. Abraham and Florrie had some thirteen
(13) children. Also, it seems that Abraham had about seven siblings. There's
not much that I know of my father other than bits and pieces, therefore I am
in search of whatever imformation I can abtain.
My mother's name was Lillian Leuila Marley, born June 14, 1928 in
Boykins , South Hampton County, VA., she and my stepfather (still living)
have resided in San Diego, CA for twenty-five plus years before her death 13
Jan 1995.
I'm very excited about my family search (trek) through time an space in hopes
of finding more about me through my ancestry. However, I've only been at this
about a year. Ive found everything on my own thus for. But now, perhaps
with your help I can learn a lot more.
In 1966, I joined the Navy and was stationed aboard the USS Essex (an
Aircraft Carrier) in Quonset Point, Rhode Island, where I served my country
during the Viet Nam Conflict for six years. I married Yvonne T. Guilbert in
1968, which she gave me two wonderful sons, John Michael, 1969, and Michael
Wayne, 1972. Sorry to say, after twenty years of marriage, we were divorced
and I moved to San Diego, November 19, 1990.
I remarried February 13, 1994, to Katherine E. Suiter. She is twenty
years younger Than I. She has, from her previous marriage, a son, Derrick
Davenport.
My father served in the Army during WW II.
At the age of five, my parents were divorced. I later met him, in 1962, while he lived
in Baltimore,
MD, where I learned some of what know about him today, and with all that my
mother told me.
My Grandfather Abraham's parents were John Daniel (McDaniel) Causey,
b.1861 in Horry County, SC d. 1937 and Armenter Jane Lee, b. 1861 in Horry
Co. and d. 1940, daughter of Willis Lee and Elizabeth Hardee. My Great
Grandfather's parents were Wright Causey, birth and death unknown for the
moment, and Rebecca Barnhill, b. abt 1840 in Horry County, SC, death unknown
for the moment.
I think Abraham was a Farmer. My mother often spoke of truck-farming when
I was a child. Send any other information about Abramham and Floria you may have.
Abraham and Florrie are buried in Wethers Cemetery
near Myrtle Beach?
