A Slight Deviation from the Theme: The Rufus Jennison Family

The Rufus Jennison Family:

I thought I'd backtrack a bit to my Jennison line. Rufus, brother of Dolly Jennison Simmons, was mentioned in the Jennison post. However, his story needs, I think, a bit more attention for several reasons:
(1) His death date is somewhat of a mystery [read below]
(2) Son Rufus, Jr. operated a tavern on the Old National Road [US 40, E. Washington St.] near the Center/Warren Township lines just east of Indianapolis. The tavern site would have been a block or two from where I grew up.
(3) Son Samuel owned a farm in Warren Twp., Marion Co., IN, not far from Rufus' tavern. The farm became the site of the old Eastgate Shopping Center [bordered by E. Washington to the south, Shortridge Rd to the east, Shadeland Ave. to the west and 10th St. to the north], which I frequented until its demise.
(4) Son-in-law John Cain, married to Eliza Ann, had an interesting story.

 
First Generation
 
1.  Rufus Jennison Sr.1 was born on 20 Mar 1777 in Ward [Auburn], Worcester Co., Massachusetts.2–4 He died on 5 Aug 1864 at the age of 87 in Philadelphia, Hancock Co., Indiana.3–5 The records at Crown Hill [day book and grave monument] give Rufus' year of death as 1862. Rufus Jennison was born in 1777 in Ward, Massachusetts. He married Jerusha Field about 1803 in Chenango Co., NY. They had at least four children; Samuel, Rufus, John and Eliza Ann.
The Jennison family made several stops in their westward migration. Samuel was born before they left Chenango Co. Rufus and John were born in Pittsburgh and Eliza in Kentucky.

Rufus' obituary appeared in the 6 August 1864 edition of the Indianapolis Sentinel;
Died at his residence in Philadelphia, Hancock county, on the 5th inst., Mr. Rufus Jenison, in the 89th year of his age.
Mr. Jenison was born in Worcester, Massachusetts, emigrated to Indiana in 1824 and for many years was a resident of Marion county.
His remains will arrive in the city at 9:20 this morning over the Central Railroad and taken from the Union Depot for interment. The friends of the family are invited to attend without further notice.
Curiously, the day book for June 2-3, 1974 burials at Crown Hill Cemetery gives Rufus' death as 6 August 1862, as does the family monument.

Rufus Jennison Sr. and Jerusha Field were married about 1803 in Chenango Co., New York?.6 Jerusha Field was born on 18 Feb 1778 in Hartford Co., Connecticut.7 She died on 30 Nov 1868 at the age of 90 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.8
 
Rufus Jennison and Jerusha Field had the following children:
 
              2              i.   Samuel Jennison, born abt 1804, Chenango Co., New York; married Betsey Julia Wingate, 18 Apr 1833, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana; married Rachel Wynne, 20 Mar 1845, Hamilton Co., Indiana; married Mrs. Mary Ann McGovern, 1854, San Francisco, San Francisco Co., California; died 16 Nov 1883, Red Bluff, Tehama Co., California.
              3             ii.   Rufus Jennison Jr., born abt 1805/6, Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania; married Agnes M. Wingate, 25 Jun 1838, Marion Co., Indiana; died 4 Oct 1855, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.
              4            iii.   John Jennison, born 31 May 1809, Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania; married Harriet Temperence Talbott, 20 Apr 1837, Hancock Co., Indiana; died 8 Jun 1853, near Madison, Dane Co., Wisconsin.
              5            iv.   Eliza Ann Jennison, born abt 1812, Kentucky; married Captain John Cain Sr., 4 Nov 1828, Marion Co., Indiana; died 28 Jun 1881, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.
 
Second Generation
 
2.  Samuel Jennison6,9–13 (Rufus-1) was born about 1804 in Chenango Co., New York.6,14 He died on 16 Nov 1883 at the age of 79 in Red Bluff, Tehama Co., California.6 Samuel Jennison was born in Chenango Co., New York. His grave marker gave his age as 79, upon his death in 1883 - which would place his birth in 1804. The Jennisons settled in Marion Co. during the 1820s.
Samuel served as the assessor for Warren Township from 1 January 1827 until  7 January 1828. He owned a parcel of land where Eastgate Shopping Center would be built in 1957. His brother's tavern was nearby, serving traveler's on the National Road.
Samuel married Betsey Wingate in 1833. The couple had four children. Betsey died in 1844, with their youngest daughter, Mary, dying a few days later. The estate of Betsey's father, Joseph Wingate, was settled in 1845. The division of property left the three surviving youngsters with an inheritance of eight lots in the southeastern part of the city.

Samuel moved to Hamilton Co., where, in 1845 he married widow Rachel Wynne Huston Rector. [There is some speculation as to whether or not the couple actually married.] In 1850 the Jennison household included Samuel's sons Joseph and William and Rachel's children Margaret and George Rector and Luther Huston.

Samuel left his family for the California gold fields, arriving in San Francisco  before 1854. Fortunately, his three minor children had their inheritance from Joseph Wingate's estate.
Jennison married recently widowed Mary A. McGovern in San Francisco in 1854. The Jennisons settled in Tehama Co. and farmed until Samuel's death in 1883. Mary died the following year. They were buried at Oak Hill Cemetery in Red Bluff.

Samuel adopted Mary's son, Edward, who opted to retain his natural father's  name.
Samuel Jennison was an acquaintance of prominent Indianapolis pioneer, Calvin Fletcher. Fletcher kept a diary and there were several references to the Jennison family.

In a letter written between June 17-22, 1827 to his wife, Sarah,  who was apparently visiting relatives in Urbana, Ohio, Fletcher states that he spent an hour at Jennison's home on his return trip from Urbana. [CF - Vol. I, p. 142]
On 18 January 1834, Jennison asked Fletcher to aid him in the election for Justice of the Peace. (Samuel, successful in his bid, took office on 11 March.) [CF - Vol. I, p. 220]

Calvin Fletcher bought out Samuel Jennison, who had been residing on the old Cain place on 29 May 1847. Jennison moved out and a Mr. Weaver moved in. [CF - Vol. III, p. 384-385]

On 22 June 1849 Fletcher with other officers of the Indiana State Bank went to Jennison's  place near Noblesville [Fletcher wrote Connersville] to see if the bank would accept the land offered by Jennison in payment for debts owed the bank. (The ISB won a suit  against Jennison in the Hamilton Co. Court. On 27 June 1849 he deeded about 300 acres south of Noblesville in Sections 13, 14 & 18 to the bank.) [CF - Vol. IV, p. 112]   The Jennison farmland was rented to a Mr. Beals on 16 August 1849. [CF - Vol. IV, p. 124]

The Diary of Calvin Fletcher was edited by Gayle Thornbrough and published by the Indiana Historical Society, Indianapolis, 1972-1983. Vol. I [1817-1838];  Vol. III [1844-1847]; Vol. IV [1848-1852]  
Samuel Jennison and Betsey Julia Wingate were married on 18 Apr 1833 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.15–16 Betsey Julia Wingate17, daughter of Joseph Wingate and Nancy Wilson, was born circa 1817 in probably Kentucky.18 Estimate;Betsey would probably have been at least 15-16 when she married in 1833. She died circa 20 Jul 1844 at the age of 27 in Marion Co., Indiana.17,19 Betsey was the eldest surving daughter named in her father's probate record. She married Samuel Jennison in 1833 and the couple had four children. Betsey died in July 1844. The youngest daughter, Mary, died a few days after her mother. The surviving children were provided for in the settlement of their grandfather's estate.
Calvin Fletcher noted on [Sunday] 21 July 1844: Pleasant morning; after Sabbath school attended the funeral of Mrs. Samuel Jennison. [CF - Vol. III, p. 61]
Samuel Jennison and Betsey Julia Wingate had the following children:
 
              6              i.   Eliza Ann Jennison, born 21 Aug 1834, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana; married Willett S. Main, 6 Jun 1855, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana; died 15 Jun 1866, Cleveland, Cuyahoga Co., Ohio.
              7             ii.   Joseph W. Jennison, born 11 Jan 1836, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana; married Mary Bowen, ca 1866, Miami Co. Kansas; died 3 Sep 1909, Miami Co. Kansas.
                            iii.   William R. Jennison20–21 was born about 1839 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.22 He died circa 12 Aug 1853 at the age of 14 in Hamilton Co., Indiana.20 In his diary, on 13 August 1853, Calvin Fletcher notes that he attended the funeral of young Jennison.
On 25 August 1853, Ingram Fletcher wrote his father Calvin from Shakapie City, Minnesota with two references to William Jennison.

"I was sad to hear that Aunt Betsy and Willie Jennison are dead." [p. 1]
"Is (sic.) surprised also to hear of the death of Willie Jennison he was in perfect health when I left, he was always an humble and kind boy." [p. 2]

                            iv.   Mary Jennison23 was born between 1840 and 44 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.17 She died in Jul 1844 at the age of 4 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.17,23 Mary's mother, Betsey Jennison, was buried 21 July 1844. Mary probably died within a day or two of the funeral.
 
Samuel Jennison and Rachel Wynne were married on 20 Mar 1845 in Hamilton Co., Indiana.12 Rachel Wynne12 was born about 2 May 1796 in Chester Co., Pennsylvania.24 She died on 12 Dec 1866 at the age of 70 in Belton, Bell Co., Texas.24 Rachel's ancestor, Dr. Thomas Wynne, was a  Welsh Quaker and arrived at Philadelphia with William Penn aboard the Welcome in 1690. The family settled in the Welsh settlement in Chester Co., where Rachel was born in 1796.
Rachel married Hugh Huston at her family's farm at Marsh Creek about 1815. Her sister Ann had earlier married Hugh's brother James. In 1816 the four Huston brothers [Hugh, James, Andrew and Thomas] moved their families to Circleville, Ohio. They had five children. Hugh was a blacksmith. When he died in 1826, his inventory included blacksmithing tools and a violin.

In 1830, Rachel married Samuel Rector. They had two daughters born in Circleville and a son born after a move to near Noblesville in Hamilton Co., Indiana. Samuel died in 1842.

Rachel married widower Samuel Jenison in 1845. The couple remained together until the early 1850s, when Samuel decided to try the California gold fields. There was some question about whether Rachel and Samuel actually married, even though her family has a marriage date.

If they did marry, Samuel comitted bigamy in 1854 when he married Mary Ann McGovern in San Francisco.

Rachel moved to Texas with sons Franklin and Luther during the 1850s. They settled in Bolton, where Eliza Ann's husband, Norman Austin, was a storekeeper. Rachel died in Bolton in 1866 and was buried in the town's Confederate Cemetery. She had kept the Jenison surname until her death.
 
Samuel Jennison and Mrs. Mary Ann McGovern were married in 1854 in San Francisco, San Francisco Co., California.6,9 Mrs. Mary Ann McGovern6,9,25 was born on 3 Jun 1819 in Manchester, England.6 She died on 1 Dec 1884 at the age of 65 in Red Bluff, Tehama Co., California.6 Mary Ann [_____] was born in Manchester, England in 1819 and married Edward McGovern, a native of Ireland. They either met or settled in Orleans Parish, Louisiana, where son Edward was born in 1844. The McGoverns were hotel keepers in 1850.
The elder Edward was out of the picture by 1853. He may have died in New Orleans, enroute to California, or shortly after the family arrived in San Francisco.

Mary Ann arrived in San Francisco on 1 February 1853 with her son. There she married Samuel Jenison, who had recently arrived from Indiana, in 1854.

The couple spent most of their years in the town of Paskenta. Both were buried in the Oak Hill Cemetery in Red Bluff. Mary Ann's will was probated 16 December 1884.
3.  Rufus Jennison Jr.26–28 (Rufus-1) was born about 1805/6 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania.26,29 He died on 4 Oct 1855 at the age of 49 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.29–30 The Cemetery family monument [Sec. 20 Lot 27] at Crown Hill gives the death date as 4 October 1855. The cemetery's day book for 2-3 June 1874 records the death date as 15 November 1856.  Rufus Jennison Jr. was born about 1805/6 near Pittsburgh as the family moved westward. After a brief stay near Newport, Campbell Co., Kentucky, the Jennisons settled east of Indianapolis, in what was then Centre-Warren Township. On 1 May 1826 Warren was made a separate township. On 3 June, an election was held at the home of Rufus Jennison to pick a justice of the peace for Warren. The host was elected Warren Township's first J.P., serving from 7 August 1826 until 3 November 1828. Three Jennisons were listed as residents of Warren in 1829: Rufus, Rufus Jr. and Samuel.
Rufus operated a tavern on the National Road near present-day Shadeland Avenue; probably near his brother Samuel's property [west ½ of the southwest ¼ of Section 1, Township 15N, Range 4E]  located where the old Eastgate Shopping Center stands. (Eastgate was bordered on the south by US 40/Washington St. [Nat'l Road], Shadeland on the west, 10th St. on the north and Shortridge Road on the east.)*
Rufus married Agnes M. Wingate in 1838. The couple had a child born in 1840 or 1841. Both mother and child died in 1841.

Rufus Jr. had moved north to Lawrence Twp., Ward 2 by 1840 [roll 88, p. 303] and his father and brother John were in Ward 4 of Lawrence Twp. [roll 88, p. 309].

On 9 June 1845 Joseph F. Wingate and Rufus Jennison Jr. filed a petition with the Probate Court concerning the estate of Joseph Wingate, dec'd. The hearing was carried over until the 12th and was resolved during the August Term of that year. In addition to dealing with the distribution of the estate, the petition served as a recent history of the members of the Wingate and Jennison families.

Rufus had purchased from brother-in-law William L. Wingate a half interest of Wingate's 3 ¾ acres of Blocks No. 80 and 81, which William had purchased from his late brother John Robert.
  Rufus lived with his parents and brother John's family from 1850 until his death. His exact date of death is in question. The Crown Hill Cemetery Day Book for 3 June 1874 records the date as 15 November 1856, while the family monument is enscribed with the date 4 Oct 1855 or 1856.

Those members of the Jennison family who died prior to 1874 were buried elsewhere, possibly the city's Greenlawn Cemetery. After sister Eliza Ann Cain purchased Section 20 Lot 27 at Crown Hill, family members' remains were reinterred there on 2-3 June 1874.    *History of Indianapolis & Marion County, Indiana, by Barry R. Sulgrove online]: http://www.ebooksread.com/authors-eng/berry-r-berry-robinson-sulgrove/history-of-indianapolis-and-marion-county-indiana-glu/page-113-history-of-indianapolis-and-marion-county-indiana-glu.shtml *Irvington [online]: http://www.polis.iupui.edu/RUC/Neighborhoods/Irvington/IRVNGTNNARRATIVE.htm

Rufus Jennison Jr. and Agnes M. Wingate were married on 25 Jun 1838 in Marion Co., Indiana.31–32 Agnes M. Wingate17,33, daughter of Joseph Wingate and Nancy Wilson, was born circa 1818 in Kentucky.34 Birth year is an estimate. Agnes was a minor in 1834 and based on order of children in father's probate was the 3rd eldest. She died circa 26 ??? 1841 at the age of 23 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.31,33 Agnes, third eldest of Joseph Wingate's heirs, married Rufus Jennison Jr. in 1838. Agnes and an unnamed child died in October 1841. Rufus did not remarry.
Calvin Fletcher recorded in his diary that 27 October 1841 was a beautiful day. The day was overshadowed by the funeral of "Mrs. Jennison, daughter of Mrs. Wingate." The editor's footnote suggests that it was the funeral of Betsey Wingate Jennison. It was, instead, the burial of Agnes, wife of Rufus Jennison, Jr. Agnes' death was noted in her father's probate settlement.
 
Rufus Jennison and Agnes M. Wingate had the following child:
 
                              i.   Infant Jennison33 was born between 1840 and 1841 in Marion Co., Indiana.31 No child shown in 1840 census. He/she died in Oct 1841 at the age of 1 in Marion Co., Indiana.31,33 The child of Rufus and Agnes died about the same time as its mother. It was noted in Joseph Wingate's estate settlement that Mary, the daughter of Samuel Jennison, died a few days after her mother in 1844. The same document stated that Agnes and her infant child died in 1841, possibly suggesting that both died on the same day.
 
4.  John Jennison35–36 (Rufus-1) was born on 31 May 1809 in Pittsburgh, Allegheny Co., Pennsylvania.37 He died on 8 Jun 1853 at the age of 44 in near Madison, Dane Co., Wisconsin.38–39 John Jennison apparently moved the family to the Madison, Wisconsin area during the early 1850s. His youngest son was born there in early 1852. John died near Madison on 8 June 1853. Youngest son Houston may have also died there four months later.
John's remains, along with those of children Amanda, John Henry, and Houston were reentered at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis on 4 November 1870, Section 3 Lot 5. Following her death, wife Harriet was buried with them on 28 November 1871.

John Jennison and Harriet Temperence Talbott were married on 20 Apr 1837 in Hancock Co., Indiana.40 Harriet Temperence Talbott was born on 28 Sep 1815 in Kentucky.41 She died on 1 Nov 1871 at the age of 56 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.36,42
 
John Jennison and Harriet Temperence Talbott had the following children:
 
                              i.   Ann Eliza Jennison was born on 17 May 1838 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35 She died in Jun 1871 at the age of 33 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35–36 Ann's funeral was held at 3:00 P.M. on 12 June 1871 at the home of her uncle, J.M. Talbott, 114 N. Tennessee St., Indianapolis. Services were conducted by Rev. Mr. Walden. Ann was buried at Crown Hill with her father and siblings. [Indianapolis Daily Sentinel, 12 June 1871, p.1, col. 4, ISL film #4151]
                             ii.   George Merryman Jennison35 was born on 22 Feb 1840 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35
                            iii.   Alexander Fields Jennison35 was born on 16 Nov 1842 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35
                            iv.   Amanda Ellen Jennison35 was born on 7 Oct 1845 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35 She died on 26 Sep 1846 at the age of 0 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35
                             v.   John Henry Jennison35 was born on 16 Sep 1849 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35 He died on 1 Jun 1869 at the age of 19 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.35
                            vi.   Houston Talbott Jennison was born on 22 Feb 1852 in Madison, Dane Co., Wisconsin. He died on 10 Oct 1853 at the age of 1 in probably Madison, Dane Co., Wisconsin.
 
5.  Eliza Ann Jennison29,43–44 (Rufus-1) was born about 1812 in Kentucky.45 She died on 28 Jun 1881 at the age of 69 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.45 Eliza was born about 1812 in Kentucky. She moved with her family to the Indianapolis area in 1824 and married John Cain in 1828.
The Cains had at least 13 children. Five died young, John Jr. died of yellow fever in 1853, Clara died in childbirth in 1874, and Andrew in 1879. Two, Missouri and Ella, could not be tracked into adulthood. Virginia, Jerusha, Eliza, and Harriet Caroline outlived their mother. In addition to Missouri and Ella, there are two other members of the family unaccounted for. In the Cain-Jennison plot at Crown Hill [Section 20 Lot 27] there is a Cain child buried 11 July 1881 and a Lula Roberts , aged 4. Both remain mysteries.

Eliza made her will on 5 April 1876. Only two children were named in the document, Harriet Caroline Scott and Eliza Deitz. She also stater that her property was to be equally divided among her six daughters and one son.  Another provision of the will was that $500 be set aside for the purchase of "a monument to be erected to my family dead in Crown Hill Cemetery." [The names inscribed on three faces of the monument were: John and Eliza Cain; Andrew J. Cain, John Cain, Clara Bierce, Jerusha V., Van Buren, Caroline, Harriet and Jessie B. Cain; Rufus Sr. and Jerusha Jennison, and Rufus Jennison Jr.]
Andrew was still living in 1876. Harriet Caroline and Eliza were both living and named in the will. That left Virginia and Jerusha as two of the surviving daughters. Barring any other unidentified children, the remaining two daughters would have been Missouri and Ella.

Eliza Ann Cain died 20 June 1881 and was buried with her family at Crown Hill.
Eliza Ann Jennison and Captain John Cain Sr. were married on 4 Nov 1828 in Marion Co., Indiana.40 Captain John Cain Sr.46–47 was born on 10 Oct 1804 in Winchester, Frederick Co., Virginia.48 He died on 10 Mar 1867 at the age of 62 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.49 John Cain was born in Virginia where he learned the bookbinder's trade. After a brief stay in Hamilton, Ohio, he settled in Indianapolis in 1826. John proceeded to tally several firsts in the city's book and publishing industry: the first book-bindery, publishing the first book, [a collection of poems in 1832], other than the State's statutes, and opened the first bookstore.
Cain married Eliza Ann Jennison in 1828. The couple had at least 13 children.

John was an ardent supporter of Andrew Jackson and was rewarded with an appointment as the Indianapolis postmaster in the spring of 1829. He held the position for Jackson's eight year term. Cain continued to hold the office during the Van Buren administration. His support of Van Buren drew the ire of several leading citizens in 1840. With the election of William Henry Harrison, Cain resigned as postmaster. After Tyler assumed the presidency, Cain was reinstated for a short time. [The eldest Cain boy was named for Andrew Jackson and another for Van Buren.]

John Cain had a brief and unsuccessful career in merchandising. Cain owned several parcels of city property and a farm on Pendleton Road.

About 1847, John uprooted his family and moved to northern Kentucky where he operated a farm and mill, well stocked with slaves. He also dabbled in merchandising again. Cain did a poor job of managing the slaves, flogging them from time to time to make sure they stayed in line. The slaves eventually revolted, burned down the mill and nearly the family home. The Cains returned to Indianapolis, where John ran the Capitol House restaurant.

President Pierce appointed Cain Indian Agent for Washington Territory in 1853. John and eldest son Andrew J. went to Washington. John served as an agent for the Nez Perce until about 1858, when Andrew took over the position. Cain returned to Indianapolis, where he spent the remaining few years of his life. Captain Cain died from heart disease on 10 March 1867.

Eliza had his remains reentered at Crown Hill on 3 June 1874, along with several other members of the family. 
Calvin Fletcher made several references to the Cain family in his diary. In addition, the editor's notes detailed Cain's exploits.

The first post office of Indianapolis was set up in 1822 in a house on Missouri St. and the present line of the canal [as of 1872] by postmaster Samuel Henderson. It was later moved to Henderson's tavern.

In 1831 John Cain erected the first block of buildings in the city on the north side of Washington St. between Illinois and Meridian Streets. The block was known as "Union Row." The new post office was housed in one of those buildings.

John Cain and Nathaniel Bolton were involved in a street fight with brothers Thomas and John Morris on 3 February 1840. The altercation stemmed from a Whig celebration that took place on 16 January. Cain and Bolton were staunch Democrats. Cain was battered and bruised as a result of the fight. The Morris were charged with assault. Thomas was fined $65 and costs for assaulting Cain and $38 and costs for assaulting Bolton. John was only charged for the attack on Cain; forfeiting $10 and costs.

On a cool 3 May 1847, John Cain offered to sell his farm to Calvin Fletcher for $40 an acre. The Cain farm adjoined the Fletcher farm south of Pendleton Road. Fletcher paid $3000 in old scrip and three yearly payments that brought the purchase price to $5500. [W½ of the NE¼ of Section 32, T16N, R4E] (This transaction set the stage for Cain's ill-fated move to Kentucky.)

Fletcher recorded a conversation with Captain Cain from 9 July 1858. The former postmaster had recently returned from a four year stint as an Indian agent in Washington Territory. Cain gave a glowing account of the new gold fields along the Frazier and Thompson Rivers in Canada. He pointed out that the British government would not be able to stem the tide of gold-seeking Americans into the Northwest Territory. Cain was not so optimistic about the agricultural prospects of the region.

An 1864 encounter between the two men proved to be quite telling. Cain made a comment about General Sherman being overwhelmed by Confederate forces. Fletcher wrote that Cain was a "cracker."
 
John Cain and Eliza Ann Jennison had the following children:
 
                              i.   Jerusha V. Cain50–51 was born circa 1829 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.50 She died before 1839 at the age of 10 in Marion Co., Indiana.52 No female of her age group on 1840 census. She was buried on 3 Jun 1874 in Crown Hill Cemetery, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.29,53 Jerusha V. Cain is one of five children buried in grave #6, Section 20 Lot 27. She is named on the family monument and in the Crown Hill Cemetery day book for 2-3 June 1874.
Jerusha was probably the first child born to John and Eliza Ann Cain about 1829 and died before 1839. This is based upon the following: The 1830 census for John Cain showed one female under the age of five, the eldest surviving daughter, Virginia, wasn't born until 1833. There were no females 10-15 in the Cain household in 1840. A second daughter named Jerusha was born in 1839.
              8             ii.   Andrew J. Cain, born ca 1831, Kentucky; married Emma R. [Cain], 1861–1863, Walla Walla Co., Washington; died 6 Jul 1879, Walla Walla Co., Washington.
              9            iii.   Virginia Cain, born Oct 1833, Marion Co., Indiana; married Henry Dubois Fletcher, 25 Aug 1853, Marion Co., Indiana; died 14 Apr 1908, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.
                            iv.   Midshipman John Cain Jr. was born circa 1834/5 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.54 He died yellow fever on 12 Aug 1855 at the age of 20 in at sea between Key West, Florida and New York City.29,55–56 He was buried on 3 Jun 1874 in Crown Hill Cemetery, Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.29

Third Generation
 
6.  Eliza Ann Jennison (Samuel-2, Rufus-1) was born on 21 Aug 1834 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.63–64 She died on 15 Jun 1866 at the age of 31 in Cleveland, Cuyahoga Co., Ohio.64 The marriage and death locations for Eliza are undocumented and highly suspect. Eliza's husband arrived in Madison, Wisconsin in the late 1840s. There was nothing in his bio that suggested he went to Indianapolis to get married, or that the family was in Cleveland at the time of Eliza's death. The more plausible case is that both events happened in Dane Co.

Eliza Ann Jennison and Willett S. Main were married on 6 Jun 1855 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.64 Willett S. Main64–65 was born on 15 Aug 1828 in Edmeston, Ostego Co., New York.64 He died on 5 Jul 1902 at the age of 73 in Madison, Dane Co., Wisconsin.64 Willett S. Main, son of Alfred and Semantha [Stillman] Main, was born in Edmeston, NY in 1828. The Mains moved to Allegany Co., New York in 1833. Alfred Main was a farmer and saw miller there until 1846, when the family moved to Wisconsin.
The Mains traveled to Buffalo, crossed Lake Erie to Milwaukee and settled in Waukesha. They remained there until April 1847, when the family relocated to Madison.

Alfred Main was elected to a two year term as Dane Co. Sheriff in 1850. He was a clerk in the Quatermaster Corps during the Civil War. Alfred retired to his farm near Madison where he died at the age of 77.

Willett clerked in Madison until 1 January 1851 when he was appointed Under sheriff. He served in that office until being elected Sheriff in 1852 for a two year term. Willett and his brother Alexander were in the mercantile business until 1860, when Willett was again appointed Under sheriff for two years. He also was again elected Sheriff in 1862. After that term, he repeated the routine - two years as Under sheriff, two as sheriff and two more as Under sheriff. Main was appointed Chief Deputy US Marshal on 1 January 1871, a position he held for 16 years. Willett retired to his farm until 1890, when he was again appointed Deputy US Marshal. Main was a Republican, serving as a delegate to the county, district and state conventions. He was elected to a four year term in the State Senate in 1888. Willett was also president of the Monona Lake Chautauqua Assembly.

Willett Main married Eliza Ann Jennison in 1855. They had two sons. Eliza died in 1866. Willett married Sophia L. Smith in 1867. They had Lydia [1869-1877], Susie [b. 1870], Annie [b. 1874], John [1875-1940] and Lois [b. 1882]

8.  Andrew J. Cain70–73 (Eliza Ann Jennison-2, Rufus-1) was born circa 1831 in Kentucky.74 He died alcoholism on 6 Jul 1879 at the age of 48 in Walla Walla Co., Washington.71,75–76 Date also given as 5 July 1879. Andrew was probably named for President Andrew Jackson, since his father was an ardent supporter of the 7th chief executive. He was born about 1831 in Marion Co., Indiana.
When his father was appointed Indian Agent for Washington Territory by President Pierce in 1853, Andrew joined him. Andrew served as a clerk in the quartermaster's corp and as the private secretary for Washington Territory's first governor and Superintendant of Indian Affairs, Isaac Stevens. He was appointed Indian agent for Eastern Washington and Oregon Territory [chiefly responsible for the Nez Perce] on 14 December 1858. [Journal of executive proceedings of the United States, Vol. 11]

A.J. remained an Indian Agent for at least two years [online references cite letters written by him in 1861], then became a lawyer in Walla Walla. He had taken the attorney's oath in 1860. Cain practiced law in Walla Walla until 1873.

Cain married by 1863, when he and wife, Emma, were named as defendants in a suit involving the collection of a promissory note. A second case was documented in 1865. The couple divorced in 1873.

Following the divorce, "Judge" Cain moved to Dayton. There he founded the Dayton News, was involved in the formation of Columbia County and served as that county's first auditor.
Cain was described as an "able and well equipped lawyer, not particularly eloquent, but very forcible in his speech, and was quite successful while engaged in the practice."

Andrew J. Cain died on 6 July 1879 from the affects of alcoholism.

His mother had his date of death inscribed on the family monument at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis, even though he died in Washington.

Andrew J. Cain and Emma R. [Cain] were married in 1861–1863 in Walla Walla Co., Washington.77–78 They were divorced in 1872 in Walla Walla Co., Washington.79 Emma R. [Cain] was born circa 1835 in Maryland.74
 
9.  Virginia Cain29,80–81 (Eliza Ann Jennison-2, Rufus-1) was born in Oct 1833 in Marion Co., Indiana.82 She died on 14 Apr 1908 at the age of 74 in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.82–83 She was buried on 15 Apr 1908 at Crown Hill Cemetery in Indianapolis, Marion Co., Indiana.84 Virginia was born in 1833. She married during the mid-1850s. Daughter Hannah/Annie was born in July 1859; however there was an Annie Fletcher who died from cholera at the age of one month and is buried in the Cain - Jennison plot at Crown Hill. This Annie would probably have been born before Hannah, placing the marriage about 1856. Virginia was a seamstress after her husband died. [1870 Indianapolis Ward 9, Marion, IN, M593_339, p. 605A] Virginia died in 1908.

Virginia Cain and Henry Dubois Fletcher were married on 25 Aug 1853 in Marion Co., Indiana.29,81 Henry Dubois Fletcher85 was born on 4 Mar 1829 in New York.86–87  Henry Dubois Fletcher was born in New York, son of Miles J. Fletcher. He was in Kalamazoo Co., Michigan by the late 1840s when he married Lucy A. Pritchard. The couple had a daughter, Ellen [b. 1848]. That union dissolved by the early 1850s.
Dubois Fletcher moved to Indianapolis, Indiana where his uncle Calvin Fletcher was a citizen of some prominence. He married Virginia Cain, daughter of the town's postmaster, in 1853. They had three children, Annie [who died at one month], Annie and Henry. Shortly after Henry's birth, Dubois was on the move again.

The remainder of Fletcher's life appears to have been spent in Nevada and California. His third wife, Catherine, bore him seven children, four of whom were still living in 1900. [Seth/Frederick (b. c 1864), Victor D. (b. c 1868), Kate M. (b. c 1873), Claud H. (b. c 1879), Mary I. (b. Sept. 1882)

[1850 Charleston, Kalamazoo, Michigan: M432_353, p. 127A; 1870 Monterey Co., California: M593_74, p. 392; 1880 Esmerelda Co., Nevada: ED 13, T9_758, p. 133B]

She died from cholera infantum* at the age of one month. Calvin Fletcher noted in his diary that the infant child of Dubois Fletcher died Friday, August 24, 1855. That would place Annie's birth sometime in July.
*Cholera infantum is largely confined to the summer months in temperate zones, and has its acme of occurrence and mortality in the period of greatest heat. Cases may occur as early as April and May, but in June the disease may be said to begin, and the curve rises steadily during July, beginning to decline late in August, and lasting till October. http://www.henriettesherbal.com/eclectic/ellingwood1/cholera-infantum.html
