John Casement 1853
« on: Tuesday 09 June 15 08:44 BST (UK) »
Hi all I am trying to help a lady out with her Casement line

We have a marriage entry but I have not been able to find a hard copy of the certificate

John CASEMENT . Seapatrick regd. Banbridge; son of John Casement ; married Mary Jones 15 Sep 1853

In this certificate it states John Casement's father was named John Casement. I assume the father would be born around 1815 ?

Can anyone help find the father named as John Casement anywhere in records? When was he born who did he marry? Is his death recorded?

Also familysearch shows several children born after 1853 to John Casement & Mary Jones. If someone has time could you please post any available info on this family, their ancestors and descendants here. Some sons went to America so I see there should be census records in both Ireland & USA available as well as BDM. Haven't the time to look myself but the lady I am helping would sure appreciate any info so hopefully some good folk on here can trace her Casement line back & down as far as possible, I will forward any info posted on here, thanks for the help

Taken from RosDavies- source given as civil record
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rosdavies/SURNAMES/C/CasCaw.htm

Not sure why you haven't been able to get a copy as it does appear in GRONI's index- you can bring up a scanned copy of the certificate for a few pounds from their website-
M/1853/R1/344/6/96   John Casement (spouse-Jones) 15 Sept.1853 Banbridge district
https://geni.nidirect.gov.uk/

In this certificate it states John Casement's father was named John Casement. I assume the father would be born around 1815 ?
Why would you make such an assumption merely from son's marriage certificate  ???

You can check lots of resources online yourself, such as U.S. census records-

Away sorting out DNA matches... I may be gone for some time many years!

Think it makes sense these two Casement families are related as both Dromore and same church

Taken from http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~rosdavies/SURNAMES/C/CasCaw.htm#cas

JOHN CASEMENT
    .    Dromore    husband of Eliza(beth) / Betty Maginis/ Maginniss; father of John b. 23 Jan 1829 & Susan b. 5 Jan 1831 & Hugh b. 1 Feb 1833 & James b. 6 Mar 1835 & George b. 25 Apr 1837 & Catherine b. 1 Apr 1840 & bpt. at Dromore Church of Ireland    PR

.    John    CASEMENT    .    Dromore    husband of Mary Jones ; father of Francis b. 23 Dec 1855 & William John b. 21 Dec 1857 (died 6 Nov 1860) & Samuel b. 20 Oct 1859 & Mary bpt. 23 Oct 1861 & Martha b. 8 Nov 1862 & William John b. 10 Sep 1865 & bpt. at Dromore Church of Ireland

Whats the bet John Casment b. 23 Jan 1829 is the one that marries Mary Jones in 1853?

Both Casement families attended the same church

Does this seem to fit?

The idea of the question mark is that i do not know if this Hugh is a son of John Casement and Elizabeth McGuinness could just be coincidence.
