Karen,
Lucerne, no longer in existance, was in the northeast corner of Sheridan County. The only thing left of the town are the ruins of one building and a sign (broken).
Another defunct town was Gradan, which was in Graham County and the name came from both counties (gra from Graham and dan from Sheridan). Ruth Gross McCalister who grew up in the Gradan area has compiled a book called "Gradan, A Memory" which is comprised of newspaper gleanings regarding the people who lived in this area as well as public records such as census, poll book of electors, election results, etc. I have a copy and will look up the CAIN family over the weekend for you.
