Tim - the only thing I have on these people is that Margaret "Peggy" Whitten Casey remarried sometime after Samuel Casey's death to a James Kirk. Not sure where this info came from except it was sent to me by Sherry Mazzetti, who says she copied it, but I don't know from what. ----- Original Message ----- From: Tim Casey To: ILMONTGO-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Sunday, August 24, 2003 11:19 PM Subject: [ILMONTGO] Casey/Whitten/Prater/Johnson Samuel Casey son of John Casey and Drucilla Hill m.
