Newsletter for the interchange of genealogical data and history of the Case (and variant spellings) families who came mainly from England, Germany, and Norway. In the 1600s, some immigrated to Connecticut, Long Island, Maine, Massachusetts, and Rhode Island.

During the 1800s, some moved to California, Colorado, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New York, North Dakota, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Washington, and Wisconsin. Later descendants also lived in Alberta and British Columbia (Canada), and in Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Hawaii, Idaho, Louisiana, Montana, Nevada, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Utah, Virginia, West Virginia, Wyoming, and elsewhere.
