John Knox, the gr-grandfather of John Welsh, was the well known founder of the Presbyterian Church in Scotland. John Knox was from Edinburgh and had many clashes with Mary, Queen of Scots. who was born in France and wanted to reinstate the Catholic Church in Scotland.

He was the grandson of John Welsh, minister of Ayr, and a great-grandson of John Knox. He is called "of Irongray" - referring to the parish of Irongray in Dumfriesshire, to differentiate him from his grandfather." Encyclopedia > John Welsh of Ayr John Welsh of Ayr (1568-1622) was a Scottish Presbyterian leader. He was born in Dumfriesshire, and, after a wayward youth, attended the University of Edinburgh and obtained his MA in 1588. He became a minister in Selkirk, and married a daughter of John Knox. Welsh later ministered in Kirkcudbright and in Ayr, where he spent five years and with which he was ever afterward associated. His preaching resulted in imprisonment on the orders of King James VI of Scotland, and in 1606 he was exiled to France, where he continued his activities for many years. His grandson was the Covenanters' leader, John Welsh of Irongray. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Covenanters The history of prominent Covenanters Archibald Campbell, Marquess of Argyll, and Alexander Henderson at the above website are also very interesting. It is believed by several Campbell researchers that descendants of the above Archibald Campbell of Argyll went to America. The Thomas Kennedy of County Tyrone, Ireland, (below) may have been the minister who baptized John Kincaid of Chalcarroch's child: Spring 1661: Ulster's Ejected Ministers In Spring 1661, 61 of Ulster's 68 Presbyterian ministers were ejected from their pulpits on the orders of King Charles II.

John Henry Kinkead was not the first governor of Alaska; he was the first Governor of the District of Alaska. Following the purchase from Russia, Alaska was known as the Department of Alaska (administered by Army, Treasury, and then Navy personnel) until 1884, and then became known as the District of Alaska.), which preceded Alaska Territory and then statehood by some 70 years. He had previously been Governor of Nevada. The first Governor of the state, in 1959, was William Egan. Bill Kincaid Ann Arbor, MI'
Dick, I have been to Kincaid Park in Anchorage, (which I believe is in Juneau County), and found it a beautiful park, well deserving of the name! I tried at that time to learn about the source of the name, but was unsuccessful. It may well have been, alas, another presumption that the name "Kinkead" is really spelled "Kincaid". 11:20 AM, Richard Kinkead wrote: > The article linked below contains a photo taken in "Kincaid Park" > supposedly in Juneau, AK.

Gartcows was basically an estate. It is in today's Falkirk. Follow your link and zoom in more. It was situated on the south of the Falkirk and District Royal Infirmary. If you zoom in you will see Gartcows Road, Drive and Crescent basically encomasing the estate.

The meaning of head of the pass for Kincaid came from interpreting it using modern Gaelic. An interpretation based on its original spellings indicates that it was P Celtic and probably meant head (or end) of the woods. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pencoed for a similar placename in Wales which kept Pen. Keep in mind that Kirkintilloch was also originally P Celtic with Kir substituted for Kir and kin for pen. This shows how Q Celtic of the Scots came to take over the area from the British who formerly had their Kingdom of Strathclyde centered on Dumbarton. Best wishes! Peter P.S.

Peter, Thank you, again for your help! I have heard that the Kincaid family was blood-related to the Stuarts/Stewarts, is there any truth to this? Also, is it possible for you to give me a list of my cousins on the mailing list? And also, is there a site for Kincaid's to visit and chat on message boards?

It is in today's Falkirk. Follow your link and zoom in more. It was situated on the south of the Falkirk and District Royal Infirmary. If you zoom in you will see Gartcows Road, Drive and Crescent basically encomasing the estate. A little to the west was Bantaskine House which Alexander Kincaid, provost of Edinburgh was stated as being representative of. Best wishes! Peter A.

Is Gartcows a community within Falkirk? When I search Google maps for Gartcows, I get several roads in or near Falkirk but no place with that name. http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=falkirk&sll=49.891235,-97.15369&sspn=27.839907,56.601563&ie=UTF8&ll=56.012202,-3.794403&spn=0.37617,0.884399&z=10<http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=falkirk&sll=49.891235,-97.15369&sspn=27.839907,56.601563&ie=UTF8&ll=56.012202,-3.794403&spn=0.37617,0.884399&z=10> Thanks, Don To see the Kincaid of all spellings DNA chart in Excel: http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~adgedge/Research/April%202004/Kincaid%20%20DNA.xls<http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~adgedge/Research/April%202004/Kincaid%20%20DNA.xls> ------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to KINCAID-request@rootsweb.com<mailto:KINCAID-request@rootsweb.com> with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message

I can appreciate your eagerness but I still see this as quite speculative. I can't state that this 1743 Peter survived beyond childhood. I just have the baptism reference. To put things in perspective we also have a Patrick Kincaid, son of John Kincaid and Jean Melvil, who was baptized in Bo'Ness Parish, West Lothian on 19 April 1741. This is still within a reasonable timeframe of a 1743 date and Bo'Ness was a bit closer to Edinburgh. However, I also do not have anything to suggest this Patrick survived to adulthood. Falkirk is about half the distance between Edinburgh and Glasgow but more to the nortwest. You can use Google maps to see the lay of the land. The following is a direct link. Hopefully it works with Rootsweb. http://maps.google.ca/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=falkirk&sll=49.891235,-97.15369&sspn=27.839907,56.601563&ie=UTF8&ll=56.012202,-3.794403&spn=0.37617,0.884399&z=10 One problem is that both Falkirk and Stirling were well know (given famous battles there). You would think a person would say they were from Falkirk or Stirling rather than Edinburgh. Again I would concentrate more on looking at possible relations for your Patrick in Maine (ie. neighbours, witnesses to legal records, etc.). I've learned that it is better to work from the known.

I am so happy that you have given me this information. It was very helpful. Does anyone, including you, have a family tree for these James Kincaid and Elizabeth Crawford? This is the first break in that family line of ours in over 50 years! Thank you, thank you, thank you. Now, I know that this info is only speculation, but it sure is darn close, and a very probable possibility. Also, where is STIRLING? Is it near Edinburgh? Thank you. Take care. Richard B.
