Dudley Lyford Cass - birth

After reviewing US census documents for Horace Cass, the younger brother of my 3rd great grandfather, Dudley Lyford Cass, I've come to the conclusion that Dudley was born in Stanstead county, Quebec Province, Canada.       Dudley's seven older siblings were also born in Stanstead county.

This resolves the discrepancies in the US census records that had listed his birthplace as either Canada, New Hampshire or Vermont.   The only accurate census was from 1850.

Norman Walter Kisow - birth

Ethel Cass, the eldest daughter of my 2nd great grandparent's Mary (Ware) and James Hardy Cass had her first child, Norman Walter Kisow on March 29, 1911 in Chicago, Cook County, Illinois.   The father was Irvin Kisow. 















The birth certificate lists the last name of the child as "Cass" with no first name.  It also indicates Ethel was living in Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin.   Apparently she moved back to Fort Atkinson from Lake Mills sometime after the 1905 Wisconsin State Census, which I posted previously.

Joseph Cass - birth documentation

Here is documentation of my 9th great grandfather,  Joseph Cass who was born in Hampton, New Hampshire August 5, 1656.  







































Joseph was the son of my 10th great grandparents, Martha (Philbrick) and John Cass.

This birth record was transcribed by the State of New Hampshire in 1906.

I have seen other family trees that indicate Joseph was born October 5, 1656, but nothing to verify that date.
