Hi Connie, I'm interested in facebook, only so far that it allows me to 'meet' some of the Kincaids. I am overwhelmed in trying to connect through letters. Many of you seem to have met through different Kincaid events that have occurred over the years. Or you are heavily versed in your genealogy. I am only moderately versed in my genealogy and my particular line of the Kincaid family tree has suffered great losses to the point that my sister, brother and I are the only surviving descendents of our generation going back to our Great-great grandfather. It makes connecting in seem even that much more remote. I am an experiential learner, so I do better if I can 'meet' people. Even this little bit of facebook exposure for me has allowed me to 'meet' Don and Ruth in much more personal fashion than I would have ever managed in 5 years of reading correspondence in a group setting. I'm looking forward to meeting Dick, Mary Louise, Karen and Meredith as well. I am endeavoring to take very serio! usly my responsibility to protect the group from anyone that would not belong. I just tested how vulnerable the facebook group will leave you. I tested you, Dick. :) I can see your profile picture, and if I click on you I am given the option to invite you as a friend, send you a message, or view your friends. I can do that to any stranger on facebook. I could not see your birthdate, personal info or pictures, or even if you have those listed on your facebook. I have posted 5 pictures on the group site. I did not post them lightly, because anyone on the group can copy them. Maybe I'm too trusting, but I want to meet you guys. Besides, there is nothing in my posts that can't be found in a newspaper search.

We don't have that here, we have a "great group" here and we all seem to get along great.Yes there are a few of us who do have some temper tantrums some times, but like children we ignore them until they calm down (SMILE) but that is the way it is with such a large family and group as we are. Although I do have several web pages with family information and pictures, there is nothing there to connect anyone with any of my personal info. No birthdates and so forth, someone with knowledge of a computer system or a computer geek can get just about anything they want when they want it,so anyway for some reason or another I think I will stay right here at Rootsweb, for some unknown reason I feel protected here.But we will see how things go with you and Facebook and see what happens, do let me know, okay?

Hi Debbie, I can understand that,it is nice to meet family and see their pictures if you have never met,in fact it is great to see what others look like and search for a family resemblance,but you gotta understand, we all do look different, thank the lord for that, and we can see in some family resemblances in some or all of us if we look hard enough,after all we are the melting pot of the great USA and other areas,even our DNA tells where we have been , where we are ,we could be any denomation. Isn't that great , a melting pot, that is what we are. I have been very lucky, I have met some of my Kincaid, Kincaide, Kinkeade,Kinkade, Kincade cousins in person and we do still stay in contact just about every day, I would not have not came as far as I have if it had not been for them and in us sharing our family information, but then this is a great bunch here on the Kincaid List and are willing to go out of their way in helping one another, that is what family is for to help one another in the best way they can,even though you can't reach out and give one another a hug when you would like to or shake a hand, we can always share what we have with you and many others. For instance there are 3 of us who live here in Kentucky, one of us lives in Indiana, we have family in Georgia, Texas,Massachusetts, just about here there and yonder,but that doesn't matter where we live at.......we are all have that one name in common we are a descendant of a Kincaid of any spelling and all spelling.

I am overwhelmed in trying to connect through letters. Many of you seem to have met through different Kincaid events that have occurred over the years. Or you are heavily versed in your genealogy. I am only moderately versed in my genealogy and my particular line of the Kincaid family tree has suffered great losses to the point that my sister, brother and I are the only surviving descendents of our generation going back to our Great-great grandfather. It makes connecting in seem even that much more remote. I am an experiential learner, so I do better if I can 'meet' people. Even this little bit of facebook exposure for me has allowed me to 'meet' Don and Ruth in much more personal fashion than I would have ever managed in 5 years of reading correspondence in a group setting.

Debbie, I'm really not sure about joining something like this, I would not like anyone to intercept any of my family information unless I choose for them to do so, and from the way it looks you would have to be {pass word protected} to keep this from happening.There are a lot of kooks out there just looking to pick up on information and start harassing others. We don't have that here, we have a "great group" here and we all seem to get along great.Yes there are a few of us who do have some temper tantrums some times, but like children we ignore them until they calm down (SMILE) but that is the way it is with such a large family and group as we are. Although I do have several web pages with family information and pictures, there is nothing there to connect anyone with any of my personal info. No birthdates and so forth, someone with knowledge of a computer system or a computer geek can get just about anything they want when they want it,so anyway for some reason or another I think I will stay right here at Rootsweb, for some unknown reason I feel protected here.But we will see how things go with you and Facebook and see what happens, do let me know, okay?

I've been on Facebook for several years now. I first started because it seemed that all the kids in my Sunday School class were on. They thought it was pretty cool that their old SS teacher was on too. Now most of my family and some old friends are on and we converse regularly. I've had no problems. If someone wants to be your friend you have to confirm them otherwise you can deny them. I'm not sure how it would work for the whole clan but I enjoy it.

Wow, I'm really confused by this. I've really tried to explain from the start that the group is already a 'closed group.' Just remember, that if you have facebook and join this group, you can quit the group any time and it doesn't affect your personal facebook. I enjoy my facebook so much, that I would not sacrifice it's 'security' for the sake of a Kincaid group. There is no reason to think that the facebook is less 'secure' than the kincaid@rootsweb is already. Anybody can start writing letters in this group. I had no problem joining in. I suppose if I started writing offensive letters, I would be excluded from the group. There would be no difference with facebook. As the admin, I've already removed one person. Although this person may have been (and probably was) utterly legitimate, his/her profile did not appear with the rest in the group. That was an abnormal presentation of a facebook member, so I just removed that person. If he/she (it was some kind of French looking name) has a problem with it, they can clear up the questions I have. I'm opinionated, but not lonely. Dick, I didn't understand your e-mail at all. Peter, smaller closer family groups CAN be nice, but for someone like me, I would probably be left with a facebook group consisting of my sister and me (since the three of us siblings--we haven't gotten our brother doing facebook, yet-- are the only surviving members of our Kincaid ancestry until you go back to our great-great grandfather's siblings. I can't even fig ure out what DNA clan we would belong to yet (A, B, C??) No clue. I have to say, I feel a little left out when it comes to all this Kincaid correspondence, and I guess I'm looking for a way to get to know everyone because it's not going to happen through close relations. -----Original Message----- From: Richard Kinkead <rkinkead11@comcast.net> To: kincaid@rootsweb.com Sent: Tue, 30 Dec 2008 8:39 pm Subject: Re: [KINCAID] facebook / kincaid group Well, to borrow from Ron White, when you're alone (and lonely and opinionated), itting in a beanbag chair naked eating Cheetos® chatting with your LEFT hand, he nasty tends to flow.

The feature of putting pictures up is really nice. I was warned of potential viruses or spam but I really don't see this as any more of a problem than general Internet use. I set up a closed group of New Brunswick Kincaids and we are a nice small family. I joined a group called 'The Kinkaid/Kinkead/Kincaid and any other w ay you care to spell it group' hosted by a KinKaid from Northern Ireland but there is little exchange there yet as it is quite small (five members). Now for a more serious issue with Facebook which led me to drop 1/3 of my friends so I could only have family and some closer or special friends. There is a feature where people can comment on what you are doing now. This is put up on their friends wallboards to see. You can get some really obnoxious comments and really politically charged comments or photos. For example, I became acquainted again with someone who I went to school with and it quickly became clear they were quite into drugs. I removed the person due to the graphic language used by these people. If you are offended by pictures of gays kissing then you should be wary of Facebook as it seems like this is the preferred profile picture of anyone in the gay community. You can expect one political party member knocking another. Bottom line is that I now have no interest in organizing a Clan Kincaid Facebook group. I think the odds are that any benefits will be outweighed by the risk of dealing a lot with people having more extreme social behaviors. I think a smaller more close knit group is better (ie. say Greenbrier Kincaids). One should make it closed so one can first screen them (ie. check the language they use, etc.) or drop them if they get too obnoxious. Best wishes! Peter ----- Original Message ----- From: Don W.

I do not know this about American Airline's claims of facebook. My experience is that facebook has been largely a teenage social networking tool that their parents' aged friends are starting to join in on. I, like you, would not appreciate belonging to a group that flaunts non-traditional values. My only concern in administering this group is that I do not know how I will go about 'screening' who joins and who doesn't. Like you, I think our group needs to be for Kincaid relatives only. Obviously, that is the whole point of the group--to be a meeting place for us to actually 'get to know one another.' I have already placed a few pictures of my family on the site. I've already reported to facebook that there should be a better way to 'organize' photos that are uploaded to the group site, but as of yet I have not found a way to make folders so any pictures are just uploaded to an ever-increasing 'stack' of pictures. Two people have requested joining the group that I did not recognize (no big surprise, since I've not been heavily involved in the Kincaid group other than to receive the mailings). I would think that the more Kincaids that are in the group, the more efficient the oversight would be, since you guys could tell me if I allowed someone into the group that noboby recognizes. I've considered requiring any person that asks to join the group e-mail me their lineage BEFORE I allow them to join. That will be rather cumbersome and will probably have the effect of driving people a way. It might be nice if a few of you do  join that (after we have a base), I will only confirm 'friends' that have been referred by someone already in the group. As I think of it, that will probably be the most effective way to handle this. I've done this long enough that I can imagine this would be the best way to handle it. If you could sign into the facebook group I have set up (it's already a closed group), you could determine if the members that have requested to join the group so far are people you recognize. Debby I don't like the fact that Facebook attracts non traditional life styles and hat they flaunt their activities.

When I finally got onboard and joined Facebook I was quickly rewarded in getting acquainted with some relatives we lost touch with. The feature of putting pictures up is really nice. I was warned of potential viruses or spam but I really don't see this as any more of a problem than general Internet use. I set up a closed group of New Brunswick Kincaids and we are a nice small family. I joined a group called 'The Kinkaid/Kinkead/Kincaid and any other way you care to spell it group' hosted by a KinKaid from Northern Ireland but there is little exchange there yet as it is quite small (five members). Now for a more serious issue with Facebook which led me to drop 1/3 of my friends so I could only have family and some closer or special friends. There is a feature where people can comment on what you are doing now. This is put up on their friends wallboards to see. You can get some really obnoxious comments and really politically charged comments or photos. For example, I became acquainted again with someone who I went to school with and it quickly became clear they were quite into drugs. I removed the person due to the graphic language used by these people. If you are offended by pictures of gays kissing then you should be wary of Facebook as it seems like this is the preferred profile picture of anyone in the gay community. You can expect one political party member knocking another. Bottom line is that I now have no interest in organizing a Clan Kincaid Facebook group. I think the odds are that any benefits will be outweighed by the risk of dealing a lot with people having more extreme social behaviors. I think a smaller more close knit group is better (ie. say Greenbrier Kincaids). One should make it closed so one can first screen them (ie. check the language they use, etc.) or drop them if they get too obnoxious. Best wishes! Peter ----- Original Message ----- From: Don W.

Well, to borrow from Ron White, when you're alone (and lonely and opinionated), sitting in a beanbag chair naked eating Cheetos® chatting with your LEFT hand, the nasty tends to flow. That's why I personally stay away from chat boards and the like. I'd try anything once, but with caution. (And Jalapeño Cheetos are wonderful!)

I will defer being a co administrator of your Facebook for Kincaid's in favor of Ruth or someone with a longer time involved with the Kincaid Rootsweb list & DNA Project. While searching to see if there is already a Kincaid Facebook site, I ran across this site: http://www.ancestry.com/facts/Kincaid-family-history-sct.ashx which has a map of Scotland showing where Kincaid's were located in 1891. Also found an article on American Airlines using Facebook platform which enforces what Peter mentioned: FORT WORTH, Texas - After more than 80 years of bringing people together through the air, American Airlines is now bringing people together through cyberspace on Facebook® Platform - one of the nation's social networks most often familiar and especially popular with lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender customers. I don't like the fact that Facebook attracts non traditional life styles and that they flaunt their activities. I also ran across other problems in doing a search tonight and tend to agree with him on whether it is viable for a group as large as the 300 or so members of the Kincaid Rootsweb List or even just the 140 participants of the Kincaid Surname DNA Project. Our church started a My Family site a few months ago and requires a password to access it or post photos, etc. and I believe any Kincaid group whether Facebook, My Family or similar programs should keep the project private to members only and even then the administrator should be able to remove inappropriate items. Having said all this, if a Kincaid Surname Facebook project is done, I will participate provided I have the option to opt out & remove my personal photos and info if problems arise. I found this site dedicated to starting a surname Facebook project: http://fbbootcamp.blogspot.com/2008/08/creating-and-managing-group.html Don W.

If it does, I will probably just set up a whole new facebook account under my name and set up the group over again.

I really don't think a duplication of DNA numbers would be necessary as it is already being hosted by Alice Gedge on Rootsweb. Plus, I would hesitate in making this too big too fast. I would respectfully suggest that we just leave it as a place where we can post our own photo so that we can see what each other looks like and also post some Kincaid/Kinkade ancestor photos if possible.
