In looking at the 1830-1860 census data for Bladen county and specifically at
the family of Wm & Kitty (Tolar) Edge, I think I have a potential daughter
that is not accounted for in my data base.

note: {unknow daughter under age 5 in 1840}:
in 1850, an adjacent family is Evan(der) CAIN, Jr and wife Mary J (??).
Mary J (???) was born ca 1831 in NC. I suspect she is maiden name EDGE and
daughter of Wm & Kitty.
Coments?

note also that there is a D. F. CAIN in 1860 census ... anyone know who he
is?
