book order form for my book "A history of African American families in Cass County, East Texas, from the colonial days and slavery to the 21st century"  "More than 300 years of history"
"I have gotten fantastic comments and reviews from several readers which has made me feel that this venture was truly a worthwhile challenge.
My joy in completing this project is the passing along of our heritage to the next generation and hoping that they will pick up the torch and keep our legacy alive." -- Darelene Warren Rothwell
 

 

Dana's on-line database with her family and other Cass County Collected families.  I can not stress how important it is to check this database for your Cass County relatives.  Most of my personal census & cemetery work goes into this database.  Because some of the names in this database are compiled from these records... a female may be listed under her married name if her maiden name was not known.
