<< I am descended from Patrick Cain, not the Abbeyville Patrick, but don't
know if he is the same as your Orangeburgh/Barnwell Patrick. My Patrick
supposedly was born abt. 1765, so he may be the father of the "Patrick
Jr." you are both talking about. I have only that he died in Grayson
Co. Ky, and that he may have come from Ireland into the Carolinas. I
have the names of several descendants, but didn't show a Patrick Jr.,
doesn't mean he didn't have one.
If you know anything about whether your Patrick of Orangeburgh could be
this Patrick of Grayson County Ky, please let me know. >>

Candy,
I'm afraid I can't help you with your Patrick Cain. He is definitely not my
Patrick; looks like there was a third Patrick who came to this country in pre-
Revolutionary days. My Patrick from Oranbeburgh/Barnwell District, SC has
been fairly well documented. His descendants, for the most part, remained in
SC. I have never heard about any KY connection until your post.
Thanks anyway!
