I took a break from my Kincade line because of this brick wall and now am ready to take a fresh look at it. I thought I would post my line again for new members or anyone with info that might help me continue. Thanks to everyone for their continuous efforts! Joseph Kincade (b. circa 1819) came to Adams County, Illinois in 1840, from where is a mystery. Census indicates he came from OH, PA or VA. It also has birthplace of his father as Ireland and birthplace of his mother as Scotland. In 1841, he married Elizabeth Frazer (b.1821 d.1895). She was the daughter of James Frazer, one of the first settlers of Adams Co. IL, and Mary Polly Crow. They had the following children: Mary Lucinda b.1842 d.1885 m. Charles Wood 1863 James Frederick b.1845 d.1932 m. Lucinda Ann Curtis 1879 Emily b.1847 John Henry b.1850 m. Helen Minetta Colburn 1875 Lucy b.1853 m. George P. Jansen Elizabeth b.1856 Benjamin Franklin b.1863 m. Armina E. Berrier 1885 Joe - No Data - May have died as an infant I have extended info on most of the siblings if anyone is interested.
