Loy Dean Bragg: Newspaper Obituary and Death Notice
Florida Times-Union, The (Jacksonville, FL) - May 19, 2008
Deceased Name: Loy Dean Bragg
FL United States
BRAGG Many set out to make a mark on the world, but one who did was Loy Dean Bragg, 84, who passed away Saturday, May 17, 2008. A man of integrity who always tried to do the right thing, he taught his children and grandchildren to live with honor. Quick witted, "Dean" was a man with a smart sense of humor who could instantly fill a room with laughter. Dean, as he was known to friends, was the President of Bragg Aviation Electronics, Inc., which he founded in 1957 and co-owned with his son Thomas Bragg. He was recently honored as the oldest tenant at Craig Airport by the Jacksonville Port Authority, where the business has resided for decades.
A World War II veteran, Dean served in the US Navy from 1940 until his discharge in 1945. A proud member of the crew of the U.S.S. Louisville, he was part of the fleet that rushed to Pearl Harbor following the attack by the Japanese in 1941.
He is survived by his wife of 64 years, Eleanor Kennedy Bragg, his children Thomas G. Bragg, Phyllis C. Aldrich, Sandie H. Loach, Indie B. Bollman, seven grandchildren, six great grandchildren, and his beloved Chihuahua "Chico". To those close to him he was a loyal and trusted friend and talented artist; to customers, a man who still did business on a handshake. To his wife, a devoted and loving husband. To his children, he was and will always simply be "Daddy," who filled all our lives with music, laughter, the gift of spirit, and a strong will.
Services for Dean Bragg will be held on Tuesday, May 20, 2008 at 11:00 am, at Hardage-Giddens Chapel Hills Funeral Home, 850 St. Johns Bluff Road, Jacksonville, (904-641-9755).
Interment will follow in Chapel Hills Memory Gardens, with a brief reception in the funeral home thereafter.
The family respectfully requests that, in lieu of flowers, donations be made to the American Cancer Society, 1430 Prudential Dr., Jacksonville, FL 32207 in the name of Loy Dean Bragg. More on his life is available at http://www.mem.com/Story/2448550/10760058/10770963?title=Biography, where condolences and memories can be added for all to share.

to me
Comments: Mirabeau Lamar Mershon was a male baby, not female. Somebody made a mistake in listing him as a female and now people have copied that into family trees found all over the internet.
Mirabeau Lamar (1798-1859) was a great man, founder of the Columbus ENQUIRER newspaper, author and second president of the Republic of Texas. Mirabeau Lamar Mershon's elder brother Joseph Enos Mershon (1827-60) became the editor of the Columbus ENQUIRER and obviously knew Mirabeau Lamar. Joseph Enos Lamar went to Mobile and died there during an epidemic, thought to have visited Mirabeau's friends there, the Roberts family. Joseph's wife was a first cousin of Joel Abbot Roberts who also had a son Mirabeau Lamar Roberts.

In Reply to: Origin of Cason name? by Eric Earl Birmingham of 1563
Absolutely nobody is descended from George Cason from Ireland. In the first place, he wasn't from Ireland and in the second place he died single without children.
The Cason and Casson name probably had a common origin and is English. It is possible that the family originally was from Normandy and came to England with the conquest, but this hasn't been proven. No doubt, some members of the family have moved from England to Ireland, possibly Northern Ireland, but the family is English. William Cason was issued a Coat of Arms in England in 1379.

October 16, 1980
DAR'S MARK GRAVE OF REV. SOLDIER
William Brantley Mosley, a soldier of the American Revoltionary War, and ancestor of many prominent Georgia families was honored this month by members of the Vidalia Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) who
marked his grave with a wreath.
The life of Mosley was recalled and reviewed for members by a Mosley descendant, and noted genealogist, J. E. "Bo" Mosley, of Atlanta. He gave many interesting facts about his forefather who was born in South Carolina
in 1755, but moved to a part of Montgomery County, now Toombs, in 1804, and remained here until his death in 1852.
Following the meeting which was held at the North Thompson Baptist Church, DAR members and guests followed a route marked by American flags to the cemetery and grave of Mosley. There an honor guard and members of the Children of the American Revolution (CAR), under the guoidance of Frank Pruett, helped salute the patriot.
Honor guard members were: Lynn Thompson, Vidalia, drummer, and Ailey Boy Scouts, John Roller and Charles Robeson, Color Guard. Following a 21-gun salute by members of the Toombs County National Guaard Kevin
Robeson, Vidalia, played Taps, and CAR member, Susan Salter, placed a wreath on the grave.
