Hello Tina, Samuel Cavin is not recorded in the index to the extremely useful History of Congregations 1610-1982 published by the Presbyterian Historical Society in Ireland (1982), nor the Seceders in Ireland – Stewart (1950). Perhaps he was not ordained in Ireland? As Elwyn has suggested, the PHSI should be the first port of call in your search.

Those universities can sometimes confirm when someone matriculated and give you a little about their origins.

He was a Presbyterian minister who came to America in 1737. He died 1750 and is buried in the churchyard of the church he ministered. Silver Spring Presbyterian Church in Pennsylvania. I am looking for his family in Ireland. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
