Hi, Sally! I think I may have created a duplicate. Nancy Thompson Thompson-92074 was the daughter of William Thompson Thompson-92040. He appears right next to Andrew and Nancy Cain in the 1892 Census for Schoharie, and also in the same household as the Cain family in 1870. It seems likely that Nancy Thompson married Andrew Cain.

Shall we merge them? Is this enough evidence?
