Surnames: Cain/Cane Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/XOH.2ACIB/2117.2.1 Message Board Post: It may be the same John Cain. I have nothing to verify it. My Cain's were in Morgan County WV in 1850. One of the sons had stated on a census that his father was born in Pa. What other information do you have about John? His children were James and Samuel. Could have had more but can't prove anything at this time. His wife and/or mother of these children was Nancy or Ann, last name unknown. She was born abt 1796.
