Here you will find the Casey history and lineage complied by retired Col. Donald E. Casey. This is Daniels grandfathers side, which trails back to Co. Cork in Ireland in the 1500s. The history dates back through Irish chiefs and Spanish kings to ADAM!
You will also find the Bass and Massey genealogy on Daniels grandmothers side, trailing back to Theophilus Bass, member of the Legislature in Jefferson City, from Taney County, Missouri, on one side.
And on the other, back to the Irish James Massey, who came to the US to seek his fortune, and was one of the earliest pioneers in Greene county, Missouri, just east of what is now the city of Springfield. James Massey was a captain in the war of 1812.
