Cheryl,
Looks like she's in my line as well. She was a sister of my gr-gr-grandfather, Oliver
Cason. Here's her family group. It shows John's father as Thomas Cason, which we
know. The next two generations, William and Roger, are speculation still at this point,
but there are so few Casons in the area at that time (mid-1700s) that there are only so
many suspects. Hope this helps!
