One other thing; first, the 1850 census says that child Nathan M. Cady was
born in 1831, not 1814. Conceivably the first one died, or it was a
different family with similar names.
Second, the name is McKinstry. Someone mangled it. In early days the
name McKinstry was mangled as often as it was spelled right. That is the
name of my brother in law. There were several McKinstry families in New
England, and my brother in law's at one time was attached to the name
Nathan. I am interested in if there was a connection.

Subject: [CADY] More questions on Reuben Cady
I found this in the archives, and similar information is in world
connect.
http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/read/cady/2004-10/1097516203
It says that a Reuben Cady was the father of Reuben Pain Cady, who was
born in 1816.
This doesn't make a whole lot of sense, unless the family was very inbred.
Other info I have has Reuben Cady b 1787 MARRIED Susannah Pain, not, was
the daughter of somebody named Pain.
1850 census, when Reuben was in Schroon Lake, New York, on a way station
on his jack-rabbit style hops back and forth across the northeastern
United States, he was born abuot 1788, married to Susannah, and the father
of Lusinda L. Cady, aka Lucinda Leneora or something Cady, born about
1843 - and also of an older girl named Lucy. Lucinda Laverna was
allegedly born 13 Nov 1842 in Schroon Lake, and how anyone knows that I
particularly don't know as not one of the several people reporting that
ever purport to know the names of her parents. Other reports on her are
consistent with the notion that she was born in 1842, not, for instance,
between 1811 and 1819.
The information in the post above and at Worldconnect, connected with
Reuben b 1783 and married Susannah Pain about 1840 in Johnsburg, Warren
Co, NY, not far from Schroon Lake, has them both parents of five children
born between 1811 and 1819 in Ludlow, Windsor Co, Vermont, and Reuben
would have had to marry at age 17 to be the father of that bunch if it
otherwise made any sense.
And Reuben Pain Cady can't be the Reuben Cady of Schroon Lake in the 1850
ceensus who was born in 1783, if he was born in 1816.
This didn't all come from that $50 published genealogy that according to
Genforum gets it wrong and the author never has any comment, would it?
I want to know Lucinda Lavernas actual roots.
My first cousins, whose ancestors these are, can't tell a lick of truth;
would this be part of where they got it?
