Happy to get this lead, Brenda! This does look promising. Would you be willing to share
the information and sources you have on the children of John Cain and Cynthia Clark? Much
of my information on Justus (Justice) Cain is sketchy and comes from a family Bible I
have. Justus was married to Eliza Orton. This marriage was her second, and there is an
indication that Justus took in her children (surname of LeSeur) by her previous marriage.
Justus' son, Curtis William (sometimes found as William Curtis) b.20Apr1844, married
Julia Maria Huntington in 1870. CW, as my father calls him, was a carpenter. He and Julia
had 5 children: Stella Maria b.15Sep1871, Olive Huntington b.17Aug1874, Clinton Alfred
b.16Jan1883, Mabel Julia (my grandmother) b.07Sep1885, Robert Severance b.27May1889. All
children were born in Omaha, NE.
