The Y-DNA of Dianne's brother Robert certainly points to Ireland, indeed, to the exact
clan even. there were several irish clans named O'Cathain (now Kane, Cain etc). Bob
matches the Kanes of Ulster. This clan was strongest in Co Derry but can also be found
spread over surrounding counties. This is a good start point. If like Dianne you also have
a male Cain relation willing to do a DNA test, this will establish f your family and hers
are related.
