Hi Liz, Averil and Sue
I see lots of interesting things have sprung up !
I'll copy and paste your message from the other thread, Averil:
***************************
"Hello Liz,
Have you looked at these Wills ?
CAIN, Robert 1905 Douglas
CAIN, Robert 1912 Douglas
CAIN, Robert 1915 Douglas
good luck ! "
********************************
The 1912 Douglas burial/will is for the Robert Cain 1827-1912 from the family of builders.
Below is the burial which might match the Robert Cain b 1828/9 Patrick who was a carter in 1881, 1891 and 1901 (although not necessarily the right Robert Cain, carter !)
CAIN, Robert 71 German 30 Dec 1901
but there's also this one:
CAIN, Robert 77 Braddan 14 Jan 1908
**************************************
The Duke connection looks very interesting. Lots of scope to dig around there.
