Hi Shelley,
Has anyone replied to your post about the photo you found? These are distant cousins of
mine and I would take the photo if nobody else is interested. Please let me know.
Thanks,
Shirley Cain Evans

I've "rescued" an old photograph of Ruth & Lyle CAIN which was taken at
the
Old Mission Studio in Los Angeles, CA. The photograph appears to have been
taken in the early 1900's with the two children appearing to be about 7-9
years old at the time. Based on limited research I was able to gather the
following information regarding these siblings and their family:
Jennie Ruth CAIN was b. 14 Feb 1894 in Burlington, CO to parents Roy or Ray
Bottsford or Botsford or Botsfold CAIN (b. 5 May 1868 in Scotland Co. MO-d.
17 Mar 1929 in Wenatchee, WA) and Maud or Maude May PENFOLD or PENFORD (b.
Apr 1877 in Iowa-1961). Jennie had a brother, Lyle B. CAIN b. 19 Dec 1895
in Burlington, CO. Lyle was serving in France when he was wounded and later
died of his injuries in New York, NY on 30 Jan 1919. Lyle was awarded the
Distinguished Service Cross for his heroic efforts on that day in Fismes,
France. Jennie married J. Dwight GILL (1890-1967) and they had 4 children
including a son, Harvey James GILL (1918-2011).
Jennie died 2 Apr 1967 in Wenatchee, WA. The family is all buried in the
Wenatchee City Cemetery in Wenatchee, WA.
Census records provide the following details:
1900 census of Burlington, CO:
Roy B. CAIN, age 32, born May 1868, married 7 years, born MO, parents born
OH/IN, a Day Laborer
Maude M. CAIN, wife, age 23, born Apr 1877, married 7 years, born IA,
parents born IL
Ruth CAIN, dau, age 6, born Feb 1894, born CO
Lyle B. CAIN, son, age 4, born Dec 1895, born CO
And living directly next door - Ruel CAIN and wife Sarah E. CAIN - likely
Roy's parents
1910 census of Columbia, WA:
R. B. CAIN, age 42, married 17 years, born MO, parents born VA/IN, a US
Government Mail Carrier
M. M. CAIN, wife, age 35, married 17 years, 2 children/2 living, born IA,
parents born IL
R. CAIN, dau, age 16, born CO
L. CAIN, son, age 14, born CO
I am hoping to locate someone from this family so that the photograph can be
returned to their care. If you are a member of this family, or you know
someone who might be, please contact me.
Thanks,
Shelley
