  • Notes 
    • MHR note: Alvah R. Cassity was "a whiskey-drinking, flute-playing, home-loving individual, with typical Irish temper" said Naomi Stutsman, Hefferman, their granddaughter. They and their daughter Nancy and baby daughter went to Texas and stayed over night with Addison Hedges and returned to Missouri and settled near Linneus because it was so much like Kentucky. They bought land from the government for twenty five cents an acres.
