[6]

8. Hulda Mary Cain, born August 7, 1834 Indiana, died June 2, 1919 Seward, NE, guardianship November 14, 1848 signed James Hale, Samuel Grow and Christian Nickey. Married William Harrison Poore June 27, 1850.[8] (Hulda Mary Cain as a young girl came to the Poore home to work as a spinner for the families clothing and met William Poore.) Hulda was buried in the north Cemetery, Seward County, NE. [9]

Greene Co., OH Court Records

From the Greene Co., OH Common Pleas Court, July Term 1816. Samuel Cain accused of cutting off the ears of two horses and for trespassing. Subpoenas' for Thomas and James Burns, John Steele, Isaac McFarland, and John B. Todd. Testifying for the defendant were John Blessing, John Allen, Enos Linzie, Ruth Mock, Jepe Sanders, and Daniel Cain. (Samuel Steele was a neighbor in Spring Valley Township, he witnessed the will of John Sanders, Samuel Cain's brother-in-law.) Samuel Knight and Lewis Bingaman (brothers-in-law to Samuel Cain) granted security for the effect of $74.94. The evidence was not direct and positive and did not amount to a probable presumption after a jury trial. (My comments: we can only imagine the conflict these allegations and trials caused in a small community such as Spring Valle, OH. Conflict amongst families and neighbors. Samuel Cain and Daniel Mock[10] moved their families to Randolph County, Indiana, shortly after this trial.)[11]
