Children are listed with Wife's death certificate, which I already posted. Registration District no. 2160 Died at 7 PM Was attended by Dr. from April 20 - June 19, 1919 Dr. last saw him alive on the 18th. From W.H.Beers Book on Union Co. History (Taylor Twp.) pg.685 VELASCO J. CASE, former, P. O. Broadway, was born in Delaware County, Ohio, June 20, 1840, and is a son of Newton and Azubah Case, whose biographical sketch appears in this work. He was united in marriage October 14, 1861, with Mary Ann Keller, who was born in Virginia September 18, 1843. He has been engaged in farming all his life, and has filled the offices of Township Trustee and School Director. He acquired a very limited education. Mr. and Mrs. Case are the parents of ten children, of whom seven survive-William L., born October 13, 1864; Adella May, born May 7, 1866; Addie V., born March 7, 1868; Newton O., born December 21, 1869; Ida M., born November 6, 1872: Clarence V., born April 7, 1878, and Minnie, born March 9, 1880. Note the Death certificate birth date differs from this Biography from the W. H. Beers book of Union co. Ohio history. Note also that Velsco was the son of Newton O. Case, yet the death certificate appears to show a T or L. for a middle initial. Here is the bio for his father Newton Case :From W.H.Beers book of Union co. Ohio (Taylor Twp.) pg685 NEWTON CASE (deceased), was born in Hartford County, Conn., October 18, 1805, and was a son of Martin and Rachel (Moore) Case, who were natives of Connecticut, where they were married. They emigrated to Delaware County, Ohio, where they remained until their deaths. Newton was united in marriage, November 3, 1828, with Azubah Gay, who was born in Massachusetts, October 1, 1810. When he was twenty three years of age, he bought sixty seven and a half acres of land from his father, and engaged in farming. He continued buying land and farming until, at the time of his death he owned nearly 895 acres, all in a high state of cultivation. He died August 12, 1881. He acquired a common school education, and had filled the office of Township Trustee of Taylor Township. Mr. and Mrs. Case were the parents of nine children, of whom six survive-Lucretia, born July 16, 1829; Electa, born March 30, 1831; Climenia E., born September 3, 1838; Clinton, born April 20,1835; Rachel, born February 12, 1837; and Velasco J., born June 20, 1841. Mr. and Mrs. Case were members of church, for a great many years, and in the death of Mr. Case Taylor Township lost one of its most valuable citizens. Which also states the date of birth at the 20th for Velasco. The date for Velasco, is most likely June 20, 1841. The 1900 Census records does however confirm that he was born on June of 1841.
