Jefferson P. Casady (September 1, 1823 – April 27, 1898) was an American pioneer, judge, lawyer, and state senator in Iowa. Casady and his siblings, including his brothers Phineas and Samuel, were members of the influential Casady family of bankers, politicians, landowners, and farmers who had a strong impact on the early history and legislation of Iowa. The Casady family were some of the earliest white settlers of Pottawattamie County.[1]
