I continue looking for any and all descendents of Job Caine who lived in KY during the
time period of: late 1700 to early/mid 1800's.
This is what I know about him at this time:
b. possibly in Ireland about 1761 and died in Potters, Lawrence Co., KY. Potters is no
longer listed, but is about 2 miles north of Louisa along US 23.
Job m. Elizabeth [???] and they had 2 children that we know of:
Thomas b. abt 1789 and Clarissa b. abt 1791
Thomas m. Candace Borders
Clarissa m. John Chaffin (these are my ggg-grandparents!)
James Milton Chaffin m. Mary Frances Sanders
Jesse Marion Chaffin m. Clementine 'Tina' Adkins
Jesse Hubert Chaffin m. Ruby Blankenship - my maternal grandparents.
I'm also looking for Thomas' descendents for my mother's cousin's wife as
I think Thomas was her g-grandfather
This is what I know so far:
Esther was the d/o Jim Jones & Ollie Jane Caines of Potter's, Lawrence Co., KY.
Ollie Jane was the d/o Hiram Caines and Frances 'Fanny' Salisbury.
Hiram Caines Jr was the s/o Hiram Caines Sr & Fances Nancy Arthur.
Hiram Caines Sr. was the s/o Thomas Caines & Candace Borders.
My problem is that I've only found 1 marriage for Hiram Caines Jr and that was to a
Luvenia Summers.
What I know from Esther is that her grandmother, Fanny Salisbury and her sister Mary, both
married brothers - Caines...I have Mary Salisbury already in my database m. to William
Henry Caines who was the s/o Hiram Caines Sr & Fances Nancy Arthur.
I can't find any marriage record for Hiram Caines Jr and Fanny Salisbury BUT in the
1900 Lawrence Co., KY Census I do find Fanny Caines (a widow) with her 3 children:
James W. b. May 1886
Ollie Jane b. October 27, 1889
Edward April 1890
With those dates it means that Hiram and Fanny (as Fanny was listed with her parents in
the 1880 Census) were married sometime between 1880 & 1885/6. And that Hiram died
between 1890 and 1900.
If anyone has any information OR is connected somehow to any of these names please contact
me.
Thanking you in advance!!
