Gary Dean Kinkade Published: Tuesday, January 13, 2009 4:30 PM CST _http://republicmonews.com/_ (http://republicmonews.com/) Gary Dean Kinkade, 65, Billings, Mo., died Saturday, Jan. 10, 2009, at Cox South Hospital in Springfield, Mo. Mr. Kinkade was born Jan. 4, 1944, in Springfield, the son of Clifford and Lois Marie (Garoutte) Kinkade. He served his country in the U.S. Army in Korea. He retired as an auto mechanic at Don Wessel Oldsmobile of Springfield. He was a member of the Clever First Baptist Church, and the VFW Post of Billings. His parents preceded him in death. Survivors include a daughter and her husband, Dawn and Scott Helliker, Okmulgee, Okla.; nine grandchildren; three stepchildren; a brother and his wife, Donald and Donna Kinkade, Republic; two nephews; and many other relatives and friends. Visitation will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 17, 2009, in Meadors Funeral Home, Billings. A private burial will be at a later date in the Missouri Veteran’s Cemetery, Springfield. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests that contributions can be made to the donor’s choice. Online condolences may be made at _www.meadorsfuneralhome.com_ (http://www.meadorsfuneralhome.com/) .
If 79672 is indeed from Samuel, brother of Thomas/Mary Mackey instead of a son of Thomas/Mary Mackey and all have their lineages correct, then indeed, Thomas/Mary Mackey is the most likey source of the mutational variance. At one point I was under the impression that 79672 claimed to Thomas/Mary Mackey. If this is not correct (as the DNA seems to indicate) then I will gladly indicate that on the chart.

I have not as yet sent an updated chart to Alice for posting. I do not know whether 139833 believes descent from Thomas/Mary Mackey. His claim is to Samuel/Phoebe Van Pelt. I know nothing more on his claimed heritage. IF (note the captitals) all 3 of the claiments to Robert/Margaret Doherty are correct in their lineage AND the mutation at marker 34 is the result of a single incident THEN Samuel would need to be a grandson of Thomas/Mary Mackey by the same son as 16491. Thomas would not have had that mutation because 79672 does not have the mutation. IF Samuel and your ancestor are brothers and both sons of Thomas/Mary Mackey AND the mutation is from a single incident THEN 79672 cannot be a descendent of Thomas/Mary Mackey as Thomas would have had that mutation and would have passed it to ALL his sons. Note that in both cases the assumption is that the mutation was from a single incident. CDYa is very volitile so this assumption may not be correct. If it is not correct and the 35 is the result of separate incidents then 139833 could possibly connect to John/Martha Hill b c1754 before he connects to others. Given the PA notation and the lack of the mutation to 24 at marker 2 (DYS390) I doubt he would connect directly to the VA family before connecting to the others. We also may not have discovered all the C-2 lines. So far we seem to have a VA grouping whose earliest ancestors were Samuel b c1700 and George b c1720 and a PA grouping whose earliest known ancestors are Robert/Margaret Doherty b c1720-5 and John/Martha Hill b c1754. What is needed is documentation by all claiments showing the connections to Robert/Margaret Doherty, particularly those through son Thomas/Mary Mackey.

I have now been sent a copy of Thomas' son George's death certificate which, with the census record, does likely meet the preponderance of evidence needs. By the way, my last email directly to Ms. Potter included "Pull George's death certificate, find George and Alice's marriage certificate, do the work, find something and get the evidence." So, congratulations Debby, well done!!!! I will go through my files and send you directly whatever I have. This likely will provide the weight of evidence that you need for Thomas S Kincaid, son of Capt. James Kincaid and Polly Sanders.
Without seeing and vetting the documentation, others run the risk of 1. having the satisfaction of being helpful but 2. running the great risk of having a badly researched and false line permanently placed into the DAR records and other places. Haven't we all suffered setbacks in our own research because of such things. Why would any of us be a part in generating even more bad pedigrees? Randall Kincaid
I challenge the following statement: "I have successfully documented my family back to Thomas S. and Marena (Siverly) Kincaid." In no presentation to this list or anywhere else has this documentation be referenced or presented, nor do I believe that it exists. There is one census record that seems to fit what Ms. Potter is trying to jerryrig for her DAR application. However, there are other census records that directly conflict with that. If there is a family bible records, a birth certificate, a marriage certificate or a death certificate, let's know about it. If there is a preponderance of evidence, such as newspaper accounts, county history accounts, etc., let's see them. Until then, the correct statement is "Thomas S. and Marena (Siverly) Kincaid are POSSIBLE antecedents." Genealogy is about documented facts, not filling in blanks without proper documentation so one can get into the DAR. Randall Kincaid
Barb, thank you very much. I've been all over this site illinoisancestors.org, but I didn't find half the information you did!! Alice, thank you for your offer to look info up in that catalog. I don't know how to find the information you would need, but I have a good friend here, Kimberly, who is helping me walk through this stuff, so I'll ask her and get back with you. For now, my laptop decided it doesn't have a broadband/wireless device in it anymore... :(?? I hope to take it to the "doctor" today, but I may be unable to get onto the internet very easily for a while... My husband will be happy!! LOL I think the piece of evidence that I would really like to find would be the will for James (m. Polly Sanders) Kincaid. That may very well be in that library, and if there's a way for me to figure?out how to get?you (Barb) the information you need,?Kimberly will help show me what to do... :) Thanks again to both of you for all your help. I'll let you know what I find. Have a great day!

Hi Sue, Alice. This is quite interesting. I just checked my personal FTDNA site and found a recent exact match on 37 markers posted with Andrew William Kincaid. But I checked the excel Kincaid DNA chart listed in your email and did not find the results for 139833 entered yet. What do we know about his geneology besides his being the son of Samuel Kincaid son of Thomas and Mary Mackey? Does he report any record of being descended from Robert/Margaret Doherty m 1745, or did he learn that from our project?

Sue, I am really interested in learning more about #139833. He is in our group C set 2. This is what I have in my records: 16491, John Kincaid, son of Thomas & Mary Mackey 139833, Samuel Kincaid, son of Thomas & Mary Mackey 79672, John Kincaid & Martha Hill, brother of Thomas & Mary Mackey 44937, Samuel Kincaid & Sarah Reed, brother of Thomas & Mary Mackey Thus, 16491 & 139833 are descendants of Thomas Kincaid m. Mary Mackey, and 79672 and 44937 come through Thomas' brothers. Does that mean that the variance would begin with Thomas Kincaid?

All results have been posted for 139833's order of 37 markers. His results match the AAV for Group C set 2 except at marker 34 (CDYa). He has a 35 instead of the AAV 36. He shares this variance with 16491 who believes decent from Robert/Margaret Doherty m 1745 of Alleghany Co. PA through Robert's son Thomas/Mary Mackey. 139833 believes decent from Samuel of PA b 1780 d 1818 m 1808 Phoebe Van Pelt. Also claiming descent from Robert/Margaret Doherty through son Thomas is 79672 and 44937 who claims descent from Robert/Margaret (through son ?) who do not share the above variance. IF the variance is from a single mutation for both 139833 and 16491 then we have several possible scenarios. 1) If all are correct in their lineage then Thomas/Mary did not have this variance and given that there is only 35 years between the marriage of Thomas/Mary and the birth of Samuel, 139833 and 16491 should both descend from the same son of Thomas/Mary or 2) Someone's lineage is incorrect. There is the possibility that the variances derive from parallel mutations as CDYa is quite volatile which leaves 139833's connection to other C-2 Kincaids open. Sue Liedtke

I have successfully documented my family back to Thomas S. and Marena (Siverly) Kincaid. I believe Thomas S. Kincaid is the son of James and Polly (Sanders) Kincaid. I have quite a bit of documentation for this, as well, but nothing that nails it down tight. I was hoping that someone has discovered a will or probate record for James Kincaid or other documentation that would help me with this that they would not mind sharing. Or, if not, could someone tell me how to send for the proper documentation? I am not in a position to travel to Illinois (although I'm still feeling out possible family members) or in a position to hire a professional genealogist there to research this. Or maybe someone has another idea for me that I haven't considered? Please do not be offended by my asking for this. Thank you, Debby
Dear Norman, I'm working on the documentation. I researched back to Thomas and Marena. Short of a will written by Thomas or DNA evidence, I am convinced I have very good documentation tying George F. Kincaid to Thomas and Marena Kincaid (1850, 1860, 1880, 1910, 1920 federal censuses, 1865 Illinois State census, and the1875 Kansas State census). I'm waiting on George's death certificate. Thomas, I believe, is the eldest son of James and Polly Kincaid. To support this, I have the?Illinois land purchase by James Kincaid (Mercer county, Richland Township) and subsequent 2 land purchases by Thomas S. Kincaid in 1852/53 "across the street"?(after showing up 'next door' to James on 1850 census, prior to his personal land purchase, implying he came with James, although technically it just shows that he lives in the same township and section "next door," which I guess could be a neighboring farm or the land that he planned to purchase in 2-3 years, but I don't think that rules out a close relationship between Thomas and James and heavily suspected father/son relationship). I also have the 1830 federal census for Greene County Ill.?showing a James Kincaid that is correctly matched to Polly by age and does not conflict with known children, including Thomas S.?(although I do have 'unnamed tally marks"). There is another James Kincaid that lands in Menard County that ha! s a family very similar to James and Polly Kincaid, but they are somewhat easily discerned by the difference in age of the Jameses. The wives are in the same age group. The James Kincaid shows up in the 1840 federal census for Mercer County, Ill. Again, these tally marks line up with the 1830 tally marks (named and unnamed). Also this ties together with James Kincaid's land purchase there in Nov. 1841 to "James Kincaid of Mercer County." Also, James and Polly are buried along with Thomas S. and Marena Kincaid at Glennwood cemetery. All this said, it appears that a number of Kincaids already believe there is sufficient documentation to tie these two together as father and son, but I lack further documentation than this. I have one unnamed tally mark that would correlate to your George W. Kincaid. Your information on him may help me research that family more closely. Do you have a birth or death certificate that ties George to James. Thomas and Marena (and Eliza) all die within 10 years of James and Polly, leaving a few minor aged orphans. Would you have any indication where these children might have gone? I would think they would be moved to live with aunts and uncles. Did George W. have any children show up on the 1870 census that weren't there prior? Here's what I would have come up with from my research on James and Polly's children (keeping in mind James and Polly were married in 1816, I wouldn't think any children came before 1817): Thomas b. 1818 (Aug. according to cemetery records) one female b. about 1815-1820 one female and one male b. between 1821 to 1825 one female b. 1825-1828 Oliver b. ~1828 Franklin b. ~1830 If your George is the other boy b. between 1821 and 1825?(which fits), then Thomas and George would have been brothers. Do you have documentation to disprove this, because I would be interested in what it is.

I am understanding this correctly, I hope. It is pretty complicated, since my everyday?vocabularly before now has never included mitrochondrial or mtDNA vs. yDNA (and it's been over 20 years since college biology!!). Here's my problem. I have to go so far back before I find a male Kincaid connection. I was wondering if (within 4-5 generations) a DNA connection could prove a connection between my mom/uncle/or one of us kids and a male Kincaid within only 4-5 generations (maybe 3, depending on how you count them). I want to learn how I fit into this group. I want to learn what I can of my history further back. I'm not interested in 'sketching in' an ancestry, but it seems that some in this group have progressed beyond what most families will accept as likely 'proof' of relationship. One hundred years from now, when someone is looking at old 1990 and 2000 censuses and they see that my husband and I have 8 children living in my house (roughly 2 years apart in age), I hope that it will be 'assumed' that th ey are mine and my husband's children, unless there is reason to suspect that they are not). I understand that it could be that I've taken in another child, not my own, but normally that wou! ld not be the presumption. I am waiting on circumstances that might allow that someone somewhere might be able to attain a copy of James (of James and Polly Sanders) Kincaid's will or Thomas (of Thomas and Marena Siverly) Kincaid's will, in order to hopefully find my own documentation. I don't live in Illinois or have family there. So much wonderful research has been done, I would think that if these wills (at least James's)?could be found, they would have been published online by now by someone. So I'm concerned they don't even exist. I'm waiting on pins and needles for my gg grandfather's death certificate, although his wife would have been the reporting family member and I'm having to hope that she knew the names of her in-laws that would have been deceased for over 50 years (nearly a decade before she and my gg grandpa were even married and while he was still a minor), if they are the parents that the evidence (and quite a bit of it)?all points toward. If they aren't his parents, then I can only s! urmise that he just popped into existence. I expect that Alice Ann at least knew the name of her father-in-law. Alice Ann's father was named William and I believe George's father was named Thomas, and their oldest son, my g grandfather was named William Thomas (WT). Their second son was named Henry Harrison (Harrison being Alice Ann's maiden name). She seemed like the kind to name her children after people she knew. I only know that their daughter died young and was named M. Effie. No first name (although I do have a poem Alice Ann wrote to Effie after she died). I have begun to wonder if the M is for Marena (in honor of George's deceased mom).?I need to get her death certificate, but something makes me think that I already looked into that a few years back and was told it didn't exist (she died abo ut 1885). I'll probably do that next week. I know the cemetery and city of Nickerson that oversees that cemetery?have no record of her death. Anyway, most in the group have been very supportive, but I feel like unless I tie in genetically I don't tie in. And I don't know how to do that from here. Thanks for explaining things, Sue... Debby . -----Original Message----- From: Sue Liedtke <seleaml@actionnet.net> To: kincaid@rootsweb.com Sent: Thu, 22 Jan 2009 4:14 pm Subject: Re: [KINCAID] Kincaid DNA Project report Debby, Your mitrochondrial DNA (mtDNA) comes from a long line of females (your brother has the same mtDNA as you have but his children do not). There is a surname change in every generation so it would not help you with any research on a specific surname. In my instance the surnames as far back as we can figure out are: Meiser, Dorris, Shields, Crowley, McIninch. We do not know the name of my ggg grandmother's mother so I have no idea what the next link is. Doing research using mtDNA is extremally problematic and can do little more than give you a general path to one of the large mtDNA groups. Interesting but not very useful. The closest I've come to any practical research use is a lady whose ancestress was adopted at a time and place that may (or may not) point to a connection with my ancestress born a McIninch. In order to be useful in research, DNA needs to be linked to that surname. This is accomplished by using yDNA which is passed from father to son along with the surname. If you want to further your Kincaid research by using DNA, you will have to find a male descendent of a Kincaid in your line.

Sue, when you say that I will have to find a male descendent of a Kincaid, it would need to be a male descendent from male descendents, correct? i.e. my brother would not be able to do this because he is descended from our mother and grandmother before you get to a male Kincaid. I am understanding this correctly, I hope. It is pretty complicated, since my everyday?vocabularly before now has never included mitrochondrial or mtDNA vs. yDNA (and it's been over 20 years since college biology!!). Here's my problem. I have to go so far back before I find a male Kincaid connection. I was wondering if (within 4-5 generations) a DNA connection could prove a connection between my mom/uncle/or one of us kids and a male Kincaid within only 4-5 generations (maybe 3, depending on how you count them). I want to learn how I fit into this group. I want to learn what I can of my history further back. I'm not interested in 'sketching in' an ancestry, but it seems that some in this group have progressed beyond what most families will accept as likely 'proof' of relationship. One hundred years from now, when someone is looking at old 1990 and 2000 censuses and they see that my husband and I have 8 children living in my house (roughly 2 years apart in age), I hope that it will be 'assumed' that they are mine and my husband's children, unless there is reason to suspect that they are not). I understand that it could be that I've taken in another child, not my own, but normally that wou! ld not be the presumption. I am waiting on circumstances that might allow that someone somewhere might be able to attain a copy of James (of James and Polly Sanders) Kincaid's will or Thomas (of Thomas and Marena Siverly) Kincaid's will, in order to hopefully find my own documentation. I don't live in Illinois or have family there. So much wonderful research has been done, I would think that if these wills (at least James's)?could be found, they would have been published online by now by someone. So I'm concerned they don't even exist. I'm waiting on pins and needles for my gg grandfather's death certificate, although his wife would have been the reporting family member and I'm having to hope that she knew the names of her in-laws that would have been deceased for over 50 years (nearly a decade before she and my gg grandpa were even married and while he was still a minor), if they are the parents that the evidence (and quite a bit of it)?all points toward. If they aren't his parents, then I can only s! urmise that he just popped into existence. I expect that Alice Ann at least knew the name of her father-in-law. Alice Ann's father was named William and I believe George's father was named Thomas, and their oldest son, my g grandfather was named William Thomas (WT). Their second son was named Henry Harrison (Harrison being Alice Ann's maiden name). She seemed like the kind to name her children after people she knew. I only know that their daughter died young and was named M. Effie. No first name (although I do have a poem Alice Ann wrote to Effie after she died). I have begun to wonder if the M is for Marena (in honor of George's deceased mom).?I need to get her death certificate, but something makes me think that I already looked into that a few years back and was told it didn't exist (she died about 1885). I'll probably do that next week. I know the cemetery and city of Nickerson that oversees that cemetery?have no record of her death. Anyway, most in the group have been very supportive, but I feel like unless I tie in genetically I don't tie in. And I don't know how to do that from here. Thanks for explaining things, Sue... Debby . -----Original Message----- From: Sue Liedtke <seleaml@actionnet.net> To: kincaid@rootsweb.com Sent: Thu, 22 Jan 2009 4:14 pm Subject: Re: [KINCAID] Kincaid DNA Project report Debby, Your mitrochondrial DNA (mtDNA) comes from a long line of females (your brother has the same mtDNA as you have but his children do not). There is a surname change in every generation so it would not help you with any research on a specific surname. In my instance the surnames as far back as we can figure out are: Meiser, Dorris, Shields, Crowley, McIninch. We do not know the name of my ggg grandmother's mother so I have no idea what the next link is. Doing research using mtDNA is extremally problematic and can do little more than give you a general path to one of the large mtDNA groups. Interesting but not very useful. The closest I've come to any practical research use is a lady whose ancestress was adopted at a time and place that may (or may not) point to a connection with my ancestress born a McIninch. In order to be useful in research, DNA needs to be linked to that surname. This is accomplished by using yDNA which is passed from father to son along with the surname. If you want to further your Kincaid research by using DNA, you will have to find a male descendent of a Kincaid in your line.

Debby, Your mitrochondrial DNA (mtDNA) comes from a long line of females (your brother has the same mtDNA as you have but his children do not). There is a surname change in every generation so it would not help you with any research on a specific surname. In my instance the surnames as far back as we can figure out are: Meiser, Dorris, Shields, Crowley, McIninch. We do not know the name of my ggg grandmother's mother so I have no idea what the next link is. Doing research using mtDNA is extremally problematic and can do little more than give you a general path to one of the large mtDNA groups. Interesting but not very useful. The closest I've come to any practical research use is a lady whose ancestress was adopted at a time and place that may (or may not) point to a connection with my ancestress born a McIninch. In order to be useful in research, DNA needs to be linked to that surname. This is accomplished by using yDNA which is passed from father to son along with the surname. If you want to further your Kincaid research by using DNA, you will have to find a male descendent of a Kincaid in your line.

Thanks for the info... so doesn't it seem like a good idea (even with the Kincaid project) to do the dna on women as well? Even if our probabilities would take us back only half as far, we could still then be linked to some male descendent, who can then be linked back further. I'm not arguing for it, since I'm not sure that I would participate at this time anyway. But it does seem that it would open more doors for those interested in their Kincaid roots (at least for the 50% or whatever that descend from a female). I've had a couple more Kincaids ask to join the group, but other than you and Dick, who I have now on my personal facebook, I haven't made a lot of connections through the group. I have, however, very much enjoyed getting to know you two a little better!! :) I've thought about opening up a yahoo e-mail account and setting up a secondary 'personal facebook' account that would allow me to post comments and write on walls for other members that do the same thing. Then I would just open up another tab on my internet explorer and keep that e-mail open as well (since it's the e-mail that tells you most of the activity that goes on in your facebook). It would still be secure in that I would only post on that facebook pics and info that I don't mind sharing with a crowd. :) >From my experience with my high school class group, which is doing very well, the group site itself is rarely used (it's the connections you make through it).

A while back I wrote to let you know about a reporter from the L.A. Times who wanted to d o a story on the Kincaid DNA project. The story appeared Sunday in the L.A. Times. The link is: http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-dnasurprise18-2009jan18,0,5045230.story The article is pretty good over all, but as a typical reporter, Alan Zarembo took a few liberties with his story. I am quoted as saying things I did not say as he twisted some of my words. Some stories told to him by others probably should not have appeared in his article, but he included them for shock value/interest. The headlines were atrocious! On a positive note, this story will hopefully increase the interest in DNA as it applies to a surname project. One of the positive things is that Sunday afternoon a radio show producer from New Zealand called asking for me to be interviewed on New Zealand radio on Sunday night so we did and are hoping to get at least one dna participant from new Zealand. The producer did a phone search and found there were 17 Kincaid's listed in New Zealand. We have also received emails from several folks who read the story asking for further information so we gladly sent them a copy of the Kincaid DNA results chart done by Sue and gave the the link for the Kincaid DNA Project. Several genealogy websites have put the story on their websites with the first I saw being Pasco County in Florida. Today I saw that is was posted on a website for China!
