Message Board Post:
Hi, John Garland Cain is my 3 great and 4 great grandfather. My mother was Sallie M. Cain
(Abels), daughter of Joe Sallis Cain, son of Van Calhoun Cain, who was son of John Garland
Cain. My mother's mother was Dena Virgie Mae Cochran, daughter of John Presley, son
of James Rollistine Cochran and Mary Jane Cain. Mary Jane is a daughter of John Garland
Cain. From all of the stories about Michael Cain (John Garland's father), traces of
him should be found in South Carolina, but I can't find anything about him. I found a
Michael Cain who was a rRevolutionary soldier, but he could not be John Garland's
father. Also John Garland(or either of his two sisters who came to Mississippi with
him)is never mentioned as a child of this Rev. soldier.
Got any clues? I've been to the SC Archives, Abbeville Historical Society, and to
Northern Ireland.
