A Jeremiah Casey first appeared in Wayne County, NC in the 1779 Voter List. 
He and Micajah Casey were the only two Casey males in the 1790 Wayne Census 
and it isn't known if they were related. 

Jeremiah's neighbors in Wayne County deeds had land grants along Aycock 
Swamp in 1783 and 1794. The swamp begins east of Fremont and flows north 
easterly to Black Creek so the land location could have been anywhere along 
the swamp courses. This would have placed Jeremiah on the north side of 
Neuse River and a good distance from Micajah on the south side of the river.
