Ballacosnahan, Caine, Crellin

At Kneen.com is an interesting story of Ballacosnahan. Several years ago I found information that my wife's grandfather William Caine christened 4-12-1850 lived at this farm. I have trying to find why this William Caine lived at the farm. Now the connection: His father was John Cain b-1813. His mother was Elizabeth Creer. John Caine's father was Thomas Caine who married Ann Crellin at Ballacosnahan on 2-22-1813. The owners of Ballacosnahan have been the Crellin's and ties to the Cosnahans. I had supposed William Cain was just a farm hand. Any information and ancestral connections on the these families would be appreciated.
