Caseys of North Iowa Avenue Build Local History Since 1892
Bruce Cowden recalls four generations of Caseys on North Iowa Avenue Washington from the 1892 livery barn start to the 1918 closure and the shift from horses to motor age. James Casey the first, Irish immigrant, drove stagecoaches and helped build railroads before a family livery business anchored the block north of the square. Frank Casey grew up amid horses and wagons, served in 1918, and watched the era end as a filling station rose on the old barn site.
