I am trying to find additional information on my gg-grandmother Lavina CASEBEER and gg-grandfather Jacob CASEBEER. If anyone has a book on early Iowa marriages, I would appreciate you looking up their marriage record. I believe they married ca. 1857 in Polk County or Dallas County, Iowa.
Lavina CASEBEER is the daughter of WILLIAM CASEBEER and SABRA HAVALIN. She was born 27 December 1839 in Columbia, Ohio, and died 14 July 1936 in Cottonwood, Shasta, California.
Jacob HENCRATT was born ca. 1836 in Germany, and died ca. 1863 in Civil War. I am trying to track the name HENCRATT. The only place that I can find the name is in Northern California where Lavina CASEBEER and her children settled after leaving Missouri. Since she was illiterate, I am sure the spelling of the name HENCRATT was change in the translation. I have check many records, including Civil War records, and cannot find a name close to HENCRATT.
WILLIAM CASEBEER was born ca. 1815 in Pennsylvania, and died ca. 1873 in McDonald County, Missouri. He married SABRA HAVALIN who was born ca. 1815 in Ohio. WILLIAM CASEBEER is the son of Solomon and Elizabeth CASEBEER. Solomon CASEBEER died 07 August 1863 and Elizabeth CASEBEER died ca. 12 May 1787. They are both buried in Kinsey-Lawson Cemetery, Johnston, Polk, Iowa.
William CASEBEER and Solomon CASEBEER are both in the 1860 Polk County, Iowa census records.
Any help that you can give me will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
