This is a stab in the dark!! My husband's McCLAIN line came from the
Coshocton co, Ohio area. I cannot find him in the records though
there are McCLAIN families there. I believe they came from Penn. Do
you have any info on lines coming into the mid-eastern part of Ohio?
Joseph married a gal from Noble co, OH, but in Athens co, OH. I have
two Joseph McClains who died. One of disease in the Civil War, one in
Athens co prior to the war. Any suggestions would be much
appreciated! Margaret Calvin.
