Jackie, There was a Casey Family that was connected with Naomi Pennington Powers and spouse John Wesley Powers. Naomi's sister Charity married a Casey. They moved to Illinois. However, I believe some of the family stayed in MO. Many of the Power(s) family also moved to IL. Good luck.

Rose, I have had a contact from a lady in CA that claims to be a relative. I have responded to her requiring documentation of relationship before turning this over to her. Am I out of line? The photo album has personal letter and documents in it that date back as early as 1916. Some Christmas cards, valentine cards, proof of innoculation from a Dr.... it's an amazing album. Leaving the family connection aside I figure the album is worth some money and Im sure some people would be greedy enough to think so too. So I want it to go to family not an antique dealer. There are about 10 tin types in it also. It's amazing. One letter speaks of some clothing a lady made for Christmas presents and what her husband got her for Christmas. The letter is dated 1921.... "John got me a white georgette waist, a black silk dress, and a player piano, and a new 9ft. X 12 ft rug. Mom got a player roll for me, Dad got me kid gloves and candy and then friends sent me lots of things besides my dear sis Beulah's presents. So you see I was well remembered......" Some of the correspondence is sent to and comes from IL, so this may be a connection.... Do you have any addresses or contact info on any of this family?
