Message Board Post:
If anyone would happen to have any information on Joseph or Joe Cain (b. abt 1867) of
Carter County, KY I'd be incredibly grateful.
He married, I believe, Emma Evans (b. abt 1872) in Denton, KY.
I'd love to know where he was from and who is parents might be. I'm at a paternal
lineage dead end.
At some point, the family started using the surname Cains in the US Census around 1910.
I'm not sure what prompted the change or if it had always just been recorded
incorrectly as Cain (for many decades), but the family has since gone by Cains.
Thanks so much!
