Hello CAVIN Cousins!
CAVIN - I am seeking any information about the CAVIN family in
Spartanburg Co., SC (or other counties of SC),Gaston Co./Iredell
Co./Rowan Co./Alexander Co/Lincoln Co. area of NC. I have found
descendants in the Spartanburg, SC area along with descendants in the
Mount Holly, McAdenville, Stanley, Gastonia area of NC. I would love to
have correspondence re. CAVIN's in other areas of SC or NC or elsewhere.
My g-g-g-Grandfather is ROBERT CAVIN, born around 1775 (?) in Co. Cavan,
Ireland and immigrated to the US in the late 1700's to early 1800's and
settled near Hiddenite, NC early 1800's(?). He was married to the
former Miss SUSAN HAYNES. Children include: ZIZA GATES CAVIN, SALLIE
CAVIN, WILLIAM H. CAVIN and ROBERT WINSTON CAVIN.
I think that my g-g-g-Grandfather ROBERT CAVIN may have entered the US
through PA (BUCKS Co.?) before settling in NC, but I have no proof of
this. Being the stubborn Irishman that he could have been, he probably
swam over from Ireland, for I have yet to locate him or any other of my
CAVIN's on any Ship's Passenger Lists on the Internet.
Kindest Regards,
