If the booklet you have was "Material Compiled Bicentennial Year 1976 by
Mildred Smith Eslinger", I have it. If not, I would definitely like to have
a copy of the one you have. We visited Mrs. Eslinger several years ago and
I bought a copy from her. (She lives (lived) in Nevada, Mo.) She was in
her 80's then and I don't know if she is still living or not.

I also have that Martha Casey m. John Bookout Sept. 23, 1852. They were
said to have had 8 children. I haven't found any other information on this
family. However, I do faintly remember my father-in-law, John Casey, the
son of Aaron and Martha Cawood Casey mentioning something about a John
Bookout many years ago. Wonder if they might have gone to OK too???? Will
ask some of my husbands sisters if they know anything of them. (My husband
was a late-in-life child and his sisters are in their mid-80's so could know
more about some of "Pops" family.) Sometimes when we get to visiting about
family they start recalling incidents that happened. I also have a tape of
my husbands dad telling about when they left MO in 1900 to settle in OK
which I have been transcribing. Will see what I find on it. Would like the
info you uncovered on this Martha Casey and William Son if you don't mind.

My mailing address is: Donna Casey; 105 Smithonia Road; Winterville,
Georgia 30683-1419. I have mailed a copy of the marriage record for Thomas
Casey and Sally Rice to you. You should be getting it soon.

Will send you a copy of Aaron Casey and Mary Jane Messick and family; and
also info on his second family--Aaron Casey and Martha Ella Cawood Casey and
family as soon as I can update the info I have. Need to put in some
corrections and more dates. This may take me a little while but bear with
me and I will get it to you.
Seems like there are a lot of interruptions when I get started on something
like this but I eventually get it done.

Donna
