She was the youngest of 10 children. Her mother passed away when she was 3 years old, and she was raised by her Aunt Ruth and Uncle Jim Seevers.
Nancy graduated from East Liverpool High School. She met Harold Eugene Cain (Gene) while working at Oglivie and Company while he was home on leave from the Navy.
