I am looking for information on Edward McCain. Family lore has it that he was born in Dublin Ireland around 1787. He was a professor at a collage in Dublin. He immigrated to the New Orleans, LA area around 1810. Married Nancy Bennett around 1814. He taught school in New Orleans and St. Tammany Parish, LA before becoming the school superintendent of Washington Parish, LA. Children are: John Bennett McCain, Mary (McCain) Morris, Nicholas S McCain, Margaret McCain, James McCain, Cassandra (McCain) Jerrell, Robert Edward McCain and Melissa Ingram (McCain) Slocum
