    1. [CAIN] Re: Cain’s in Arkansas or Tennessee during 1800’s
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/XOH.2ACIB/2246.1 Message Board Post: There were Cains in Rutherford County Tenn in the 1860's and 70's. There was a George and Elizabeth, both born in Virginia. They had several children--among them was a Robert and Martha Jane. Martha Jane Cain married my great grandfather Jeremiah Brumbach of Pennsylvania. He died in Helena Arkansas in 1871 leaving her with 1 son, my grandfather, also named Jeremiah, but always used the name Jerry. His mother, Martha married a Joseph W. Bigley and the three of them moved to the Colony in Texas in Fayette County. I am searching all records to find their marriage license or perhaps where Jeremiah is buried. I know she, Martha Cain Brumbach Bigley died and is buried in Fayette County TX. Could these Cains be any part of the Cains you are looking for. I believe the census shows George and Elizabeth in Rutherford in the 1850 with their young children.
