Hello List: In October, 2001 I posted the messge below to this list and one or two other lists. This evening a little after seven (CST), I received a response to it from a person by the name of Millie, Nellie, or Mollie and it had an attachment. Anyway, my antivirus program did its thing and zapped it out before I could get the person's name and email. If that person is on this list, I would like to hear back from you after you have ran your anti-virus program. Liz Freeman In OK! I have been researching a CASNER family that left Haskell County, TX sometime after 6-24-1902 and presumably made their way to NM. I am searching for the death date/place of two people - a father and son. There is the father (John L. Casner) who was born 1822 in MO and the son (John Lewis Casner) born 1-4-1851in IA. John Lewis Casner is also known as Louis/Luke/Lew/Lou Casner. On 6-24-1902 they sold the last of their rangeland in Haskell County. They are not to be found anywhere after that date. The family of the son appears between 1908-1910 in NM. Both were tried for murder, convicted, appealed and won their appeals for a shooting that occurred in 1899 in Haskell County. One was tried in Fisher County, the other in Stonewall County. I have newspaper accounts and trial records. Family tradition says the son, John Lewis Casner died in 1-1903 of a heart attack on the banks of a river while out hunting quail to feed his very large family (presumably in NM, but could have been in TX). There are no accounts of where/when the father died. My best calculation is that one or both died while migrating to NM. I have searched the Texas Death Index microfilm; I wrote to Austin regarding the deaths; I have searched cemetery records on the net of every county remotely close to the trail they might have taken while migrating to NM (knowing that all cemetery records are not on the net). During October I made a road trip from Haskell County to Lubbock and personally searched the death index of all counties between Haskell, TX & Clovis NM all to no avail. It is as if they just rode off into the sunset never to be heard from again. I was just wondering if anyone out there may have come across either of the above individuals in cemetery records, funeral home records, newspaper accounts, mysterious deaths, run-ins with the law, etc., etc., etc. Any thoughts from any and everyone concering the above appreciated.
