I have some Kentucky Cain relations. Patrick Cain from Ireland settled in Nelson Co &
later Grayson Co. Have been able to establish a connection with other Kentucky Cains (and
disprove connections with some) by comparing Y-DNA through the Cain DNA Project at
www.familytreedna.com/public/Cain-Caine
Y-DNA also proved Irish origins. Indeed, Y-DNA narrowed Patrick's probable place of
origin down to a small cluster of parishes in Co Galway. Some other Kentucky Cains have
proven via Y-DNA to have Ulster origins. They are the biggest group in the Cain DNA
project.
