Dear listers,
Last week I was in Henry County researching my gggrandparents Thomas
WILLIAMS and Susan CASSADY. I found on their marriage license in 1852 that
Susan's uncle Hezekiah SNIDER vouched for her age as she had no parent
living in the county at the time of the marriage. On the 1850 census she is
living with her mother, Elizabeth CASSADY and brothers Richard and Wesley;
and sister Mary. Hezekiah SNIDER's wife was Ellen or Eleanor CASSADY
daughter of Weir or Ware CASSADY, which would make Susan's father Ellen's
brother, but I do not have his name. I am wondering if anyone on list is
researching to Weir CASSADY and his wife Elizabeth WISHON. I found him
listed on the Delaware 1820 census index.
These families seem to have located near the borders of the two counties
in Cowan, Springport, Mt. Summit and Hillsboro.
