Message Board Post:
Marie, I have Cains coming from No. Ireland in 1864-65 by the name of William &
Margaret (Jamison) Cain. They settled in Knox Co., Illinois and later (1870) moved to Red
Oak, Iowa. I believe one of them had a horse business in Nebraska also. I have wondered
what or who would have drawn them to this country and Knox Co. in particular. They had 7
children; Alex, Mary, Anna, Ellen, Lucinda, Margaret, William, Jr.. Does the date match
your family and could they have been related?
