Employment*1871Winnipeg, Winnipeg Metro Region, Manitoba, Canada; From the book, named Kaleidoscope 1878 - 1986, published by the Kaleida Historical Society in 1986 - "Thomas James Cassin was born of Irish immigrants in the District of ValCartier, Quebec in 1847. At the age of sixteen he was employed to help build a railroad to the west. He reached Winnipeg in 1871 and was then hired as foreman of the Strevels Construction Company to build a railroad line from Winnipeg to Manitou. Thomas Sr. then managed the old Stuart House in Manitou, which he later purchased and renamed it - The Cassin House. In 1880, he married Ellen McDermott in St. Boniface, Manitoba and took his bride to Manitou. They lived in the hotel for 35 years, raising six children there, namely: Frank, Tom Jr. , Kathryn (who died as a small child), Mary, Charles, and Josephine.
Around 1891, the hotel was gutted by fire and Thomas Sr. acquired land in Kaleida on which to farm while the hotel was being rebuilt In 1913 Frank succeeded his father in the hotel business for a few years. The hotel was then sold and Thomas Sr. and Ellen were engaged in farming in Kaleida. Thomas Sr. died in 1928 and Ellen in 1944.
When Thomas Jr. was discharged from the Army in 1919, his brothers and sisters had moved from Manitou and he acquired the far. In 1922 he married Janet (Jean) Carswell and they lived in the Kaleida District until they retired to Manitou in 1949. They had one daughter, Helen, who married Cecil Kidd. They have two sons, Garry and Jack.
The Kaleida home was a second home to all the brothers and sisters, children and grandchildren for many years. Cherished memories of dear friends and shared happiness still remain with all of us. (Written in 1985 by Lorraine (Cassin) Rebbeck."2

Occupation*1894Manitou, Pembina Valley Region, Manitoba, Canada; It is not clear as to when exactly in the 1880s that Thomas became involved with the Stewart House (located at the corner of Main & Ellis East). However, this information is available from the Manitou historical book, In Rhythm With Our Roots (edited by Vedden & Webb): "In 1894 fire broke out in the Hudson's Bay Store Warehouse. The Stewart House was separate from the burning store by a space of twenty or thirty feet but caught fire due to its height. The hotel burned down. With the insurance money forthcoming, a new hotel was built. Mr. Cassin leased the Dufferin House, while the new hotel was being built in 1894 and 1895. The new hotel was named "The Cassin House", after its owner. In 1895 the Manitou Mercury describes the finishing touches to this new hotel: 'The work in connection with the construction of the Cassin House has been completed, and the house is now being furnished. The structure is one of the finest hotel buildings in Southern Manitoba. The dimensions are 52' x 52', three stories hight with stone basement the full size of foundation. The basement is divided into compartments containing the sample rooms, pool room, furnace room, cistern, refrigerator and root cellars. On the first flat are a commodious dining room, reading room and office, kitchen, washroom, hall and stairway. The second story contains a large parlor, linen closet, bathrooms and twelve bedrooms. All the rooms are particularly well-lighted, bright and cheery. The woodwork throughout is of British Columbia fir and cedar, the beautiful grain of the wood showing to splendid advantage. The structure has a Mansard roof (a four-sided roof with to slopes on each side) surmounted by a tower and flag staff, and is fifty feet high from bottom of basement to top of roof. The building has been fitted with a system of electric bells, and a balcony and verandah extends along the front. Mr. Kerr had the contract for supplying the furniture and will fit up the rooms with an elegant assortment of oak-finished parlor and bedroom suites, a carload having been received for that purpose this week from Kincardine. The brick and stone work and plastering was done by Mr. Lamb of Winnipeg, the carpenter work by Mr. Hunter of Miami, and the painting by Mr. Spencer of Morden. Mr. and Mrs. Cassin are having the rooms carpeted and furnished as quickly as possible, and the Cassin House which is selected for the new hotel, will be open for the reception of the guests in a short time.'
Thomas Cassin turned over the management of this elite edifice to Frank Cassin. The establishment catered to public and political functions. However, with the coming of prohibition there must have been financial difficulties because in the fall of 1916 the entire contents were auctioned off including 168 blocks of ice, all furnishings, one old horse, one moosehead,' according to the Western Canadian.
The next mention of the hotel in the Western Canadian is in the January 23, 1918 edition: 'The Pembina House is the name of the hotel in Manitou now. The old name of the Cassin House disappears, under the proprietorship of Alexander Smith.'
....The Manitou Hotel continued as a hotel until March 31, 1959 when it burned down."9

Cassin has been furnished with a copy of the testimony and does not incline to appeal. It is directed to be recorded and is as follows - Thomas W. Cassin, having had a birthright of education among Friends has so far deviated from our good order and principals as to keep company with and accomplish his marriage with a woman not in membership with Friends by the assistance of an ____ minister, for which he has been visited by a member of a committee of this meeting. Believing him not rightly qualified to condemn the course he has taken, we testify against his conduct and disown him from a right of membership with us until he becomes rightly prepared to condemn his deviation which we earnestly desire he may."5 
Residence*1854Tete des Morts Township, Jackson County, Iowa, United States; Reportedly, Thomas and Elizabeth left Pennsylvania during 1854 and moved to Tete des Morts Township, Jackson County, Iowa and in 1867 bought a 400 acre form in Jackson Township where they lived and farmed until they retired to Maquoketa, Iowa in 1884.3
