A Rose by any other name would smell as sweet....

At the turn of the century, the Casebolt family was traveling from Ireland to the States.  There were several children traveling with their parents.  The parents did not survive.   The Terry family took in the Casebolt children.  Some of the children took the Terry name, some kept the Casebolt name.  If you are from the Eastern Kentucky area, you have probably heard both names...and may have even noticed in a cemetery that the tombstones of these names are intermingled.  That is because it is the same family - my family!  My great great great grandfather took the Terry name when they adopted him.  Some of his siblings kept the Casebolt name.

We love the name Case, and think that the adoption story in my family history just makes it that much more meaningful. 

Speaking of siblings...how about this for a look-alike photo!  Can you tell who is who?
