Name of Ancestor: ROBERT CAVIN
Query: CAVIN - I am seeking any information about the CAVIN family in Gaston
Co./Iredell Co./Rowan Co./Alexander Co., or Lincoln Co. area of NC. I have found
descendants in the Mount Holly, McAdenville, Stanley, Gastonia, NC area. I would love to
have correspondence re. CAVIN's in other areas of NC or elsewhere. My g-g-g-Grandfather is
ROBERT CAVIN, born around 1775 (?) in Co. Cavan, Ireland and immigrated to the US in the
late 1700's to early 1800's and settled near Hiddenite, NC early 1800's(?). He was married
to the former Miss SUSIE HAYNES. Children include: ZIZA GATES CAVIN, SALLIE CAVIN, WILLIAM
H. CAVIN and ROBERT WINSTON CAVIN. I think that my g-g-g-Grandfather ROBERT CAVIN may have
entered the US through PA (Bucks Co.?) before settling in NC, but I have no proof of this.
Being the stubborn Irishman that he could have been, he probably swam over from Ireland,
for I have yet to locate him or any other of my CAVIN's on any Ship's Passenger Lists on
the Internet. Help! Kindest Regards, Les Cavin - cavin@charlotte.infi.net Please visit my
