November 1866
On September 29, the Casement's son John Frank was born. In October, Casement and his crews passed the 100th Meridian line on the Nebraska prairie. Jack's family arrive home in Painesville in mid-November having spent some months in Omaha to be closer to him. Frances encourages Jack to come home to Painesville more often to help raise their son, a plea she would repeat over the years.
