From Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary [easton]:

  Enoch
     initiated. (1.) The eldest son of Cain (Gen. 4:17), who built a
     city east of Eden in the land of Nod, and called it "after the
     name of his son Enoch." This is the first "city" mentioned in
     Scripture.
     


       (2.) The son of Jared, and father of Methuselah (Gen. 5:21;
     Luke 3:37). His father was one hundred and sixty-two years old
     when he was born. After the birth of Methuselah, Enoch "walked
     with God three hundred years" (Gen. 5:22-24), when he was
     translated without tasting death. His whole life on earth was
     three hundred and sixty-five years. He was the "seventh from
     Adam" (Jude 1:14), as distinguished from the son of Cain, the
     third from Adam. He is spoken of in the catalogue of Old
     Testament worthies in the Epistle to the Hebrews (11:5). When he
     was translated, only Adam, so far as recorded, had as yet died a
     natural death, and Noah was not yet born. Mention is made of
     Enoch's prophesying only in Jude 1:14.
