Casey, John

Casey, John, Dairy Farmer, Khandallah. As one of the Councillors of the Borough of Onslow, Mr. Casey has served the ratepayers for about three years, and still holds a seat at the Council Board. He was born in 1868 in the house he now occupies, having succeeded on his mother's death in 1895 to the fine little farm of ninety acres with its snug homestead left by his father, the late Mr. John Casey, who for some years was an officer of the Defence Department. Educated in Wellington, Mr. Casey was brought up to the life of a settler, and has seen great improvements made in the condition of the property which he now owns. In 1891 Mr. Casey was married to a daughter of Mr. Cornelius Donovan, of the South of Ireland, and has three sons.

Mr. John Casey.
