Ingersoll, Editor (1893) PATRICK CASEY, of Castroville, is a native of the Emerald Isle, being born in county Cork, from which he came direct to California, when he pulled up stakes and left the land of his birth to seek, under the stars and stripes, the freedom denied in his native land, making the trip in 1867. He enaged [sic] in farming for a time and then embarked in the liquor business at Castroville, where he still lives and enjoys the esteem of a wide circle of friends. He has a brother, Jerry, in southern Monterey county; a sister Julia, now Mrs. John Hoyes, of Castroville; and another sister, Mary, is married. This gentleman is a fair example of what a man can make of himself if he only has enough push and energy about him.
