Went back to 1900 Detroit Wayne, Michigan 

John McGowen age 40 b. 1858 in Canada with occupation of "Moulder" and immigration date of 1900 is shown w/ wife Ida  age 39  b. 1861 and 3 daughters, 
Louisa 16 
May  12
Jennie 10 
All b. in Canada.   

Indicates Ida was the mother of 4 children and all are living.   
Ida & John married since age of 20.   
Ida was b. in Canada  and both parents from "York State"
 
So not sure if above John & Julia are your correct people at all ??
If Ida and Julia are the same person ??   
Isabelle would be about 7 in 1900 and could be the 4th child ??
IF Julia and Isabelle were a second family for John ??

Hi LissaM,
Thank You for your help with the Cain/McGowan.
John McGowan that could be John's second wife Ida and Julia his first,but I really don't know,It is funny both the John's marriage with his parents being Scottish and coming from Wayne,Michigan.
James and Margaret son Albert Cain was born 1st May so that was him,then their other son Walter Cain that was his death as well,when he joined the army that was the address.
A big thank you for your help.
