Subject: CAVIN Family From: Les Cavin Date: May 02, 1998 Hello to All! I am seeking any information about the CAVIN family of Alexander Co./Iredell Co./Rowan Co./ Gaston Co. area of NC, and Spartanburg Co., SC (or other counties in SC). I have immediate family living in the Spartanburg, SC area along with ancestors in the Mount Holly, Taylorsville, Hiddenite, McAdenville, Stanley, Gastonia area of NC. I would love to have correspondence re. CAVIN's in other areas of NC/SC or elsewhere. My g-g-g-Grandfather is ROBERT CAVIN, born around ±1750 (?) in Co. Cavan, Ireland. He immigrated to the US in the late 1700's to early 1800's and settled near Hiddenite, NC, in what was called at that time, Iredell Co. He was married to the former Miss SUSAN (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!
