Hide Profile

Denham Cason (1884-1964) owned and operated a general mercantile business in Jewell (Hancock County) Georgia during the first half of the twentieth century, having worked earlier with his father, Adam Rodgers Cason (1850-1924) and uncle, Hugh Bunyan Cason (1855-1933) in their general store, Cason Bros. This store later became A.R. and H.B. Cason and ceased operation ca. 1912-16. Following his association with Cason Bros., Denham Cason operated a vehicle business, selling buggies and harnesses, while also carrying on a farm operation involving peach and pecan orchards and running his own general store. In 1920 Denham Cason's business became Cason Bros. for a short time while he and his brother, Hugh Adam Cason, were partners.
