Edward CASSEY printer
« on: Friday 26 October 07 12:47 BST (UK) »

I have a Robert Patrick Bennett CASSEY born in Hereford in 1858. Parents
Edward CASSEY and Frances or Mary HIGGINS.

Edward is listed as a "Printer". I have heard of the company Edward CASSEY
and CO which printed histories and gazetteers of Hereford and Shropshire in
the mid 1800s. Has anyone any idea as to how I might find out if my Edward
is the book printer?

Does anyone know anything else of this family?

Hi Marie,

It looks like you may be right, this looks like Robert in the 1861 and 1871 census, look at Edward's occupation in 1871

34 Pearson St

Catherine " " Wife Mar   28    Ireland ?Kerry?

Robert    " " " "   13 Herefordshire Hereford

With other lodgers in the household of Hannah Griffiths.

If you don't mind me asking where do you find his wife to be Frances or Mary HIGGINS, I ask because I found this marriage,

Catharine HIGGINS with same details.

THanks for going to the trouble of looking this up for me.
Yes, it seems to confirm that Edward is THE Edward CASSEY, doesn't it!

Frances Higgins appears as mother's name on the son Robert's death cert and someone on the internet had her listed as Mary so I was covering all bases. I think Catherine is correct though as there is a death for Catherine Cassey in 1863 in Hertfordshire. This ties in with Edward being there preparing to publish his Hertfordshire County Directory which he did in 1863. Also, he was a widower by 1871.
Perhaps her name was Catherine Frances or perhaps his wife was confused with the name of his sister.

Once again, thankyou for your interest.
Marie
