Find a Grave - Memorial Text,
Born ca 1775 in what was Washington District, SC. The Courthouse and Jail were in Pickensville. It consisted of Pendleton District and Greenville District, SC. When Greenville District and Pendleton Districts were created Washington District was disbanded on Jan. 1, 1800. In terms of current counties it included Anderson and Pickens, Co, SC. Wm married Mary "Polly" Mason some time before 1815. He died in what was the Pickens District, SC, now Oconee County, SC. They had 8 children that I am aware of, my line of descendant being through their oldest of the 8 known children being William "Cooter" Cain, Jr. whose wife was Elizabeth Cain. She died in the northern part of Dawson County, Georgia in the New Hope Community. She is buried at New Hope Church Cemetery. Her husband Cooter Cain left for parts unknown at this time but is believed to have returned to SC. Family members of my older Cain family say he was quite handsome and was a ladies man. I am told that Elizabeth caught him riding horses with an old flame from near Oakway, Oconee county, SC whose last name was Hardin her first name to remaim anonymous at this time. That they were quite loud and boisterios circling her house and she chased both of them off with a shotgun and told them both never to return. Elizabeth never heard from either one of them again thus Cooter's death and burial and fate remains a mystery. He is believed to have died ca1888 or a short time there after in some part of SC. Cooter struck gold and did quite well in various enterprises including real estate. Our family might have been well off if not for his vices. As it was Elizabeth was left to raise a number of children and we are a large number all over the United States. Many stories were past down thru the generatons one of those being Elizabeth now living on her own was very frugal with her finances. Her children wanted some marbles but Elizabeth would not buy them any. One day one of their teachers from the School paid Elizabeth a visit with an intering report on her boys. It seems like her boys had got into her gold and were trading gold nuggets for marbles with the other children and it turned into such an event that it caught their teachers attenttion and she was stunned when she found out what they were doing. YOU CAN IMAGINE ELIZABETH WAS MORE STUNNED.

Died (66 years old) at Oakway [South Carolina, United States] [in Oconee County] on 12 Mar 1862 [also mentioned may 1862],
buried at Westminster [South Carolina, United States] [Bethel Baptist Church Cemetary],
marries (2) with Mary Pauline (Polly) Mason. From this marriage 10 children.
