Thank you for your information. I don't believe there is any connection
however, My grandparents John c. and Mary Rebecca Cain. John's parents
was John William Aven and Arenia Emilene Hargis Cain. John was born in Ky
in 1831 and died in 1892 in Madison Co., Ar
John WA dad was James Albert born 1798 in S. Carolina amd his father was
Patrick Cain born in Ireland in 1741
That's about all I have as to where my family originated. Most of us
ended up in Arkansas.
My Mother had 2 brothers. Truie, Virgil

Message Board Post:
I saw you post of the Cain list this morning and I wanted to write
about my Cains.
I have three brothers, George Washington Cain, Absolom Cain and John
Cain. They all say that they were born in VA or Shenandoah, VA in
the census or other sources. They were born in the teens of 1800,
went on to Highland County, OH by 1840 and then into Dubuque, IO by
1850. Their mother seems to be Susan S. b in 1787 in either PA or
VA. She also went to IO and is buried in Dubuque in 1866. John
Cain married Orpha Beavers who died in 1842 and later he married
Elizabeth Shinn who came from what is now West VA. I tend to think
that Elizabeth Shinn's family had some prior connection to the Cains
and that both of these families came from some area near the
Shenandoah Valley in what is now West VA. Does any of this
information match up with what you know about Cains from West VA?
Thank you,
Judith K. Arthur
