I have read Mildred's book over and over again. In fact I think we have discussed this
via email. Anyway, I have heard from someone who says his father saw a bible that listed
the names of the 7 brothers Cain. Unfortunately it was destroyed in a fire. I have not
given up trying to find any record of these brothers. The fact that our families lived in
close proximity for as you said over 150 years makes me think there is a connection. Look
at all the same families our branches married into? Almost all I have on Hardy Cain and
Mary Foreman's descendants comes from Mildred's work. I continue to try to find
new info. I should add that not all I have comes from Mildred. Your website has given me
so much.
Thank you for all your good research. John I have been trying to find some of the old
newspapers Mildred refers to. For instance the Pineywoods Planter. Can you advise me?
Mary
