Cain’s of Greene, Hamblen, and Hawkins Counties Tennessee

I am searching for a Hugh Cain “Sr.” that I believe was born about 1756 in Londonderry, Ireland, and died 21 August 1851. Family lore reports he married a Miss Thomas. I know nothing further of her. A wife Penelope Eleanor Carter has been found. Hugh Sr. had one son Hugh Cain Jr., born 5 May 1801 at Mulberry Grove, Grainger County. Hugh Jr. was murdered 27 April 1864. Additionally there were three daughters; a Gracy Cain m. a Boykin or Boycon, a Sallie Cain m. a Russell and the third daughter, I have no name.
Hugh Cain “Sr.” and a brother Thoams or Thomas immigrated to this country prior to 1800. I know little to nothing about Thomas. These brothers at one time may have spent time at Watauga Settlement before eventually at least Hugh Sr. coming to Hawkins Tennessee. This is all I know about the Irishmen. I have a substantial amount of history from Hugh Jr. and later that I am certainly willing to freely share for the same courtesy. It is Hugh “Sr.” and Thomas that I search. Thank you for your help in finding these members of my wife’s family. My charts are built in Microsoft 2003 Office Publisher and may be e-mailed quite easily. I maybe reached at tomschronce@bellsouth.net . Again, Thank you.
