Death of father Andrew Casey I have searched for any proof that John J Casey s father died in 1882 as claimed in the article and found none But I have found a variety of newspaper articles saying that Andrew Casey father of John J Casey died in 1910 These articles appear in Wilkes Barre Scranton Pittston and Philadelphia papers They note that Andrew is the father of John J Casey from Wilkes Barre PA who is running for the position of Secretary of the Interior on the Keystone Party platform I have also found the death certificate indicating that John took his father Andrew back to Wilkes Barre for burial Hope this is useful
