My name is Shirley Leanna. I am trying to find the date of death for my ancester, Abraham Pennington Casey. He died in 1841 or 1842 in Missouri. I have found in books of Jefferson County that he was visiting his son, John Clarke Casey in Ripley, now Oregon County Mo. His family was still in Jefferson County Illinois. His wife was Nancy Baker Casey and she is buried in Pleasant Grove Cemetery near Mt. Vernon. His Son, Franklin Smith Casey and Wife, Rhoda are also buried at Pleasant Grove. I have been unable to find where he is buried or the exact date of his death. I would appreciate your assistance. Thank you!

Sheldon, On 12 Dec. 2005, a post on the FCI mail list by Sheila Cadwalader stated a death date of 09 July 1898 for Thomas ROBINSON. Sheila also referred to a probate record for Thomas ROBINSON. I sent that information to Ann a few days ago.

Author: matode3 Surnames: Braden Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.illinois.counties.jefferson/1117.1.1.2/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I just found this post and since it has been a few years, maybe you have found the information you are looking for. My husband is somewhat related to the Braden family. There is a A. Harrison Braden buried beside his wife Della I. Braden at the Knob Prairie Cemetery in rural Waltonville, Jefferson Co. Illinois. I think he always went by his middle name even though his first name was Albert. I visit that cemetery often and I recently took a picture of the tombstone which I would be happy to share with you. Hope this helps. Rosemary Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
