It is proposed by some that Charles Cayce's son Micajah may have been the Micajah Casey in the 1769 Dobbs County, NC Tax. In his 1776 will Charles gave son Micajah "one good feather bed and furniture and if he never comes for it..." Gifts of this nature were usually to minor children at the time a will is written. If that is not the case, this son may have been serving in the Revolutionary War and returned home and claimed his gift. If he was Micajah from Dobbs County, NC he would have a long distance to travel to visit his family. More information is needed before confirming the relationship. Following is information about this early Virginia family.
