| "CASEY is the 479th most
common last name. Around 60000 CASEYS live in the US. Our family changed
its surname in the early years of the last century having immigrated
from Quebec. We're actually Tessiers! which is the 7869th most common
last name in the US. The move from
Tessier was a net gain of 7390 in ranking. This should silence the
critics who still maintain that our family is not progressing!"
