    Notes:

    Stonemason, and pugilist (fighter). Apparently engaged in a fisticuff engagement (some reports says boxing match in Uniontown). Came home? to Freetown and died approx. two weeks later. His grave has not been found in Freetown.

    In the 1880 census for Indianapolis there is a stone cutter Charles Case, born in Ohio (abt 1850), single, father born in Indiana, mother in Vermont.

    On the death certificate of Roy in 1906 his brother James registers fathers birth place as Ohio.

    When Charles R. Casey marries in 1881 in Brown county, his last name is Case. No parents in the registry.

    Birthdate may be Aug 27.

    Brown county is just south of Indianapolis, and nabors Bartholomew and Jackson counties, where the familiy settles. Knox is a little further west.

    - Not the son of James Solomon Casey and Eliza Ann West. Their son is Charles Thomas Casey. When this Charles T. gets married, his parents are stated. He is also in the census with his mother Eliza in 1880.

    Charles married Tobitha Ann Crosslow on 30 Mar 1881 in Brown County, IN, USA. Tobitha (daughter of James W. Croslow and Catharine Simmons) was born on 11 May 1854 in Indiana, USA; died on 28 Sep 1933 in Bicknell, Knox, Indiana; was buried in I.O.F.F. Cemetary, Bicknell, IN, USA.

    Notes:

    Orphans. Her death certificate states her father as Crosslow, her mother as Simmons.

    1860 census for Salt Creek, Jackson, Indiana, Tobitha is six years old and living with William Arthur and his wife Mary Jane (her older sister).

    Not yet found in 1870 and 1880, 90 is missing.
    There is a Tobitha Miller, age 17 in 1870 Coal Creek, Montgomery, Indiana, USA

    1900 Census for Busseron Township, Emison Precinct, Knox, Indiana:
    Tabitha A. Miller (why Miller?) lives with her children and rents a separate house on the farm where her brother Joseph and wife Bashiba live with their children, plus their son Ulysses with his wife Joanna and their children live:
    Tabitha A Miller May 1856 Indiana, widow, eight children born, six living.
    James E Casey May 1880 Indiana
    Charles C CaseyMar 1884 Indiana
    Etta M Casey Jan 1885 Indiana
    Albert R Casey Mar 1888 Indiana
    Efford Casey Oct 1889 Indiana
    (There is also a John K. Miller born Oct 1852 in Illinois on the same page, married farm laborer, but I believe he is a day laborer, and his family is in Montgomery, Crawford, Illinois.)

    1906 marriage of James, she is registered also as Tabitha Miller.

    1910 she is 53, and a washerwoman in Bicknell, Vigo, Knox, Indiana, has both parents born in Virginia. Lives with Efford.
