Betty,
My grandmother was Marion Rhodes, of Norwich, Ontario. She married
Donald Cavin, my grandfather, of Sudbury, Ontario. They moved to
Pontiac, Michigan before WWII, and had two sons, George Edward Cavin and
Donald Cavin, Jr. They also had a daughter, Dorothy Cavin.
George Edward Cavin of Norwich, Ontario (my father) married Margaret
Lucile Weihe of Detroit, Michigan. They had four sons, Edward Scott
Cavin, Steven Charles Cavin (me!), Mark Bradley Cavin, and Michael Brian
Cavin.
And (finally!) Steven Charles Cavin, of Pontiac Michigan, married Vai
Ching Choi, of Macau, China. They had three sons, Matthew Hunter Cavin,
Joshua Benjamin Cavin, and Gabriel Joseph Cavin.
I've always wanted to know more about my ancestors. Please tell me a
little more about our family.
Many thanks,
Steve

The late Marion Cavin did extensive research on our Cavins - if you
are
one of her relatives, you probably know all of this. But if not,
according to Marion, Hugh Cavin, Born 3 July 1793 or 4 in Ireland died 3
January 1860 in New Brunswick. Elizabeth Cassidy was Hugh's second
wife, born 1827, died 11 January 1905, and married John Howard Greenlaw
after Hugh died. The Greenlaws had one daughter Jessie Gay Greenlaw,
who died in 1951.
My grandfather, Robert McLay Cavin, was a grandson of Hugh. I have a
lot of information from Marion, so please feel free to contact me.

one of her daughters, also Elizabeth, married my great grandfather, Angus Greenlaw.
I'm not at home to check my files but Angus and John Greenlaw were cousins I believe.
