Cavender”) born about 1853; JAINE CAVENDER ("Jane Cavender" and sometimes "Jaine Cavanaugh") born about 1853; ANN CAVENDER? (sometimes Ann Cavanaugh") born about 1854. This might be the same Ann Cavender who was born about 1850 and married Imry Yates ("Emry Yates"? & "Emery Yates"?) on July 27, 1870 in Dubois County, Indiana;418 (However, see above re Nancy Cavender.) JOEL SUTTON CAVENDER ("Joel Cavender" & “J.S.

BARDINE CAVENDER ("Bardin Cavender" & "Bard Cavender") born about 1808,403 & 481 1809, or 1810418 in either New York or Vermont404 & 481, probably in Ferrisberg, Addison County, Vermont, married Nancy Davidson ("Nancy Davison") on February 25, 1830 in Perry County, Indiana, was still living in Perry County, Indiana in 1840, enlisted in Company H of the 24th. Indiana Volunteer Infantry, and died about 1847 in Perry County, Indiana, near the end of the term of his 3 year enlistment. Nancy Davidson was born in New York about 1811 or 1812, was the daughter of Robert Davidson and Abigail Davidson who had settled below Dozier Creek in 1824, and was the sister who married James Cavender. She was 19 years of age when she married, and she died before 1865. Bardine Cavender's widow subsequently married Pebre Bolin ("Sebree Bolin" & "Sebram Boland"?) on September 27, 1849 and who was born in Indiana about 1817, and in 1850, they were living in Perry County, Indiana. This is based on the fact that, in a 1922 obituary for Zoper Davis Cavender ("Zoper Cavender", "Zopar Cavender", "Zopher Cavender" & "Zophar Cavender"), it is stated that Zoper Cavender was born in Cannelton, Perry County, Indiana and that he was the son of Bard Cavender and Nancy Cavender. Living in Troy Township of Perry County, Indiana in 1850 was the family of Pebre Bolin ("Pebre Bowlin"? & "Sebram Boland"?). In the 1850 census, it was stated that he was then age 33 and born in Indiana about 1817, and that his wife, Nancy Bolin ("Nancy Boland"? & formerly "Nancy Cavender"?) was then age 38 and born in New York about 1812 (Some say she was born about 1829 in Indiana.418). At that time, their children, all listed as being born in Indiana, were: Henry Cavender age 19 and born about 1831 and who may be the same Henry Cavender who married Adaline Maugon (“Adeline Maugon”) in Alexander County, Illinois, Jonathan Cavender age 17 and born about 1833, Abagail Cavender ("Abigail Cavender"?) age 15 born about 1835 and who may have married David Gladis, Amanda Cavender age 13 born about 1837, Zopher Cavender ("Zophar Cavender", "Zopher Cavender" & "Zopar Cavender") age 11 born about 1839, Charles Cavender age 9 born about 1841, Julia Cavender age 5 born about 1845, and Adeline Cavender ("Adaline Cavender"?) age 4 born about 1846. According to the wife of R.E. Chambers of Bremerton, Washington, who apparently was the gggrandson of Bardine Cavender and ggrandson of Charles F. Cavender ("Charles Cavender") and grandson of Lucinda Cavender ("Lucy Cavender"), the first Charles Cavender was definitely of Irish origin. They stated that they understood that Charles Cavender had not much more gotten off the boat when he enlisted as a soldier in the Revolutionary War. The Chambers family also stated that the first Charles Cavender had about 5 grandsons who were all named Charles William Cavender ("Charles Cavender", “C.W. Cavender” & “Charles W. Cavender”) and that the Charles F. Cavender noted above was actually one on them, but had changed his middle initial so that his name would be slightly different from the others. The children of Bard Cavender and Nancy Cavender were: NANCY CAVENDER born about 1829 in Indiana, and married Sebram Boland on September 27, 1849 in Perry County, Indiana;418 HENRY CAVENDER born in Indiana about 1831 in Indiana, and is believed to have died November 12, 1831 at the age of 3 months and 2 days and is buried in the Sherritt Cemetery. By another account, this particular Henry Cavender born in Indiana about 1831 is listed in the 1850 census for Perry County, Indiana418; JONATHAN D. CAVENDER (“Jonathon D. Cavender”, “J.D. Cavender”, "Jonathan Cavender" & “Jonathon Cavender”) born on August 4, 1833 in Perry County, Indiana, married Pauline Bruner ("Paulina Bruner" & "Pauline Brown"?) on either April 16,1857481 or on January 24, 1858404 in Troy Township, Perry County, Indiana, soon afterwards settled on a farm in Dubois County, Indiana near the homes of his uncles, was drafted in the Civil War in Dubois County, Indiana, died on January 30, 1875 in Taylor County, Iowa, and is buried in Siam Cemetery in Siam Township, Taylor County, Iowa. Apparently, he was named after Jon Davidson who was the brother of Nancy Davidson who married Mary Cavender, the sister of Bardine Cavender. Apparently, after he had a few children in Old Harbinson Township in Dubois County, Indiana, Jonathan Cavender was among the men who were drafted on September 26, 1864 to serve in the Civil War for the Union Army. Jonathan Cavender was released after a few months of service due to health problems. Soon after the Civil War ended, almost all of the grandchildren of Charles Cavender and Deborah Davis Cavender left Indiana and moved West, with some settling in southern Illinois, but most moved to Page County, Iowa, Taylor County, Iowa, Atchison County, Missouri, and Nodaway County, Missouri.
