Robert Carson Caskey

1744–1826 BIRTH 1744 • Pennsylvania DEATH 12 SEP 1826 • Green, Kentucky 5th great-grandfather This is info that I have on my grandfather. He married Mary Jane Todd. I will research to find the two Robert Carson Caskey and the difference between birth 1747 and 1744. They are probably the same. More research is needed.

Several questions arise about this profile: The findagrave.com page does not list Thomas as a son. Is there documentation of any sort of this relationship? Also, the birth and death dates given in the bio text are inconsistent with those on the profile.
