Forgive me Norman in that all I have to go on here is information in your timelines. You link people to places but I can't see how you came to this as I do not have the full information that you have. I don't see how you link James Kincaid, coroner to any other place. I am reacting to you point: "I now have enough circumstancial evidence to place them within the Sadsbury, West Caln, East Caln Townships, Chester County, PA Kincaid family cluster." I noted that the recent DNA result does not link the Sadsbury Kincaids to James Kincaid (m. Margaret Kuhns). I pointed this out because I am going on the assumption that James Kincaid (m. Margaret Kuhns) is connected to James Kincaid, the coroner. This is based on your placement of him in Hempfield township in 1773. It seems to me that since the Kuhns James and the Coroner James are both from Hempfield one would look to a relation. I understand from a previous post that Margaret's grandfather, Philip Kuhns, was Sheriff of Westmoreland County. Would one not further suspect one from the Coroner's line is of similar social status to marry one of the Sheriff's line? Given the times, I do, so I assume that the Kuhns James is of the Coroner James' line. Assumptions aside I hope this one could be figured out. I have a keen interest in Kuhn James' ancestry as I have a common ancestor with sample 15550. Best wishes!

I don't see sample 15550 as being closely related to your 4164. Sample 15550 is closer to 2519.

Another sibling could have acquired the lands James grew up on. Peter
I am getting confused by the references to Hempfield township. The only thing solid we have for James Kincaid who married Margaret Kuhns was that he was of Hempfield township at the time of his marriages. Why would you place him in Cumberland County as opposed to tying him to the Kincaids in Hempfield township in the 1770s?

Okay, so to be sure before I start, Peter, you are saying that you do not believe that James Kinkead, coroner and recorder of Westmoreland County, PA is not the son of John Kinkead of Sadsbury Township, Chester County, PA.

To add a different perspective on this discussion, the participants in the Kincaid DNA chart are not always placed according to DNA closeness. Sue does a good job of using lineage info in addition to the DNA results to place people on the chart. From a purely DNA standpoint, the FTDNA probability of common ancestor predictor for 67 markers shows Norman to have an 86% chance of common ancestor in 8 generations with 5850 in Set 1c as well as those who have an exact match for 67 marker results, Ted, Doug & Dick, Set 1a, and shown as the Apparent Ancestral Value for Group A. The next closest is 49289, Ron L, Set 2a at 84%, then James E. Kincaid, # 2563, Set 1b, at 70%, followed by 15550, Set 2a at 67% along with 96496, Set 1a, 1255 and 28835, both Set 1b followed by 122441 at 45% and lastly Grant, # 2519 at 28%. Those shown on the DNA chart as being in Set 2b with Norman are shown in blue which may or may not come through on the Kincaid List post. According to this 15550 is as close as anyone in Group A Set 1b to Norman except for Ron L, # 49289.

Although I am somewhat a casual participant to all the dialog, you were a tremendous help to me when my family and I visited Scotland on our own back in 2005. We visited Campsie and walked the hill to the Kincaid-Lennox castle. We are headed to Ireland and Northern Ireland next week. Any suggestions for places to visit in Northern Ireland that may have links to our Kincaid past? We will be driving into Northern Ireland from Dublin area and up to the Antrim coast. Thanks for your help. Robert Bruce Kinkade #35915 - Group C

Nevertheless, I'm still grouped with sample 15550 on the Family Tree DNA chart along with 2519. Plue you stated: "I think the results for sample 119921 (a reputed descendant of the Sadsbury Kincaids) elimates the likelihood that James Kincaid (m. Margaret Kuhns) of Westmoreland County, PA (represented by sample 15550) is of the Sadsbury Kincaids." If that is so why would I continue to look to the Sadsbury Township, Chester County, PA Kincaids for his paper trail? Especially when I lose track of James Kinkead the Coroner after 1786? I still think James W. Kinkead is from the Cumberland County, PA Kincaids. Although, lately, I have found vague connections between the Cumberland County Kincaids and the Chester County, PA Kincaids. Also I'm having trouble accessing Alice Gedge's table so I am unable to review the updates there. I'm still looking at the warrants, deeds, and surveys in Westmoreland County after 1786 to find more definitive answers to where James Kincaid, coroner, died. I still don't believe he is the guy who died in 1812 in Brooke County, VA, later WV. Although it appears that he is the James Kinkead in the Board of Property Case.

What a fun time you must have had. Amazing how the genetic features show up in the generations. My father's side of the family are all small people, 5'3" to 5'8" and so his most of my mother's. Exception: the Kincaid's, my mother's paternal side. Her father was 6' 1", his two sisters were close to 6", and his brother was 6'4". Their father was 6' 2" (born 1852). Since I firmly believe that I come from the Patriarch who was supposedly 6' 4", this tallness (is that a word?) makes sense. By the way, I also have Sharp in my family. Edward (b. 1700) came from Ireland and settled in Lancaster County, PA. His son Henry moved to SC in 1762.

According to the Clyde Kincaid book, records in Edinburg states that John The Patriarch's grandfather was Joseph Kincaid who married Mira North in 1685 and he emigrated to Ireland in 1701. Also, that John's father was Robert who married Elizabeth North in 1703. I have absolutely no proof of any of this, but it is an avenue for someone to pursue. Sharon Kisor "Don W.

However, James Kinkead who married Margaret Kuhns is not the immediate offspring of James Kinkead the coroner of Westmoreland County, PA. James Kinkead, coroner of Westmoreland County, PA was married to Mary Simeral, sister to John Simeral who married Mary Kinkead, daughter of John Kinkead of Sadsbury Township, Chester County, PA. See below from John Kinkead of Sadsbury Township's will: . Item, I give & bequeath to my well beloved son James fifty pounds in cash to him or heirs. All which legacies I do hereby order my beloved son Charles to pay in the following order, viz: at the expiration of one whole year after my decease to John Sumrall & Thomas Killpatrick the above bequeathed twelve pounds to each of them & 25 pounds to my son James being the one half of his share. And at the end of two years after my death to pay to my said son James his remaining 25 pounds in full of his legacy, and to my son Samuel the 20 pounds as above bequeathed to him.

Pennsylvania Archives, s. 3, v. 22, p. 29. 1773 James Kinkead [000013] brother-in-law, appointed executor of John Sumrall’s will, of Westmoreland County, PA, will written, Feb. 24, 1773, proved, April 8, 1773. Chester County Historical Society, West Chester, PA, Kincaid file. I have been trying to figure out what happened to James Kinkead, coroner of Westmoreland County, PA. I keep looking at the James Kinkead who died in Brooke County, VA (later Brooke County, WV) in 1812. And the Board of Property case between Kinkead v Stone. And I don't know how much to credit the story about James Kinkead of Brooke County, VA having an estate in Ireland. Below is information from Alice Gedge: (4) 1797: Moved to WV, about 6 miles from Steubenville, OH, in the neighborhood known as Cross Creek. Located near Holliday's Cove on Harmon's Creek about 3-4 miles from where this creek empties into the Ohio River. The homestead is about 3 miles up Harmon's Creek back up the hills along the creek from what is now Colliers Station, one mile from the summit of the hills. (4) Brothers John and James KINKADE purchased, for 101 pounds 5 shillings, 270 acres from the heirs of John Lee WEBSTER, who held the patent on the land. (1c) The original KINKADE and ADAMS farm consisted of 270 acres which were patented to John WEBSTER by Gov. RANDOLPH in 1787. (4) 1802, 26 Apr: John and James KINKADE conveyed to William ADAMS, for $742, the north half of their 270 acre tract. This land continued as the KINKADE and ADAMS homesteads until sold by the heirs. The KINKADE homestead was sold to James MARSH. The ADAMS homestead was sold to J.Q. CRISS, whose heirs still owned the land in 1901. (4c) 1803: James KINKADE received a patent for land. (4c) John KINKADE conveyed his interest in their half of the homestead lands to James KINKADE. (4b) 1812: He was getting ready to go to Ireland to claim the "estate and title" when he became ill and died. He was offered 500 guineas and 300 acres of land for his interest in the estate in the North of Ireland. (4) 1812, 9 Oct: James KINKADE wrote his will. Left his wife Nancy the 1/3 part of the real estate for use during her life and 1/3 of all the personal property. Left to his son John 40 acres to be delivered after one year, provided he lives with the family and is careful and industrious during the term of that year and makes no charges for his work. He was also given the black mare, the best saddle and the big plow, one par of horse gears, an axe, and 1/4 of the fall gain that was growing. Gave to daughter Eleanor one bed and bedding, one colt, one heifer, two sheep, and a new saddle. To his dauther Jane he gave equal property to that given to Eleanor as to quality and quantity. To his daughter Mary Ann and Ruthanna he gave each $79. The remainder of his estate was to be divided among his 4 youngest sons - the whole was to be at the disposal of his wife during her widowhood, for the maintenance of her family and the schooling of her children. (4) His estate, as enumerated, indicates that he was a well-to-do farmer. It included wagons, plows, horse-gear, pack saddles, men's saddles, and women's saddles, wheat, oats, rye, corn, hay, flax, 10 horses, a humber of hogs, geese, coes, sheep, potatoes, turnips, a loom and spinning wheels, rifle, dresser, several bedsteads, woolen yarn, flax seed and a large number of small articles. I'm still not convinced that it is James Kinkead, the Coroner from Westmoreland County, PA. I still think that James Kinkead who married Margaret Kuhns was the son of John Kinkead who married Mary Lee in Carlisle, PA in: 1796 John Kincaid [15550] married Mary Lee at First Presbyterian Church, Carlisle, Cumberland County, PA on April 27, 1796. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA The above John Kincaid I believe to be the son of James Kinkead of West Pennsboro, Cumberland County, PA. These were later the Kincaids of Dickinson Township, Cumberland County, PA. Sincerely Norman Kincaide Sincerely Norman Kincaide ----- Original Message ---- From: Peter A.

Second the close connection for 2563 and 119921! The 67 marker FTDNA probability of common ancestors is 95% at 8 generations. For 67 markers results this is high! For comparison the 4 in Group A, Set 1a who are exact matches on the whole 67 markers have a probability of a common ancestor within 8 generations of 97%, so almost as high as the exact matches. Since 2563 traces back to John Kincaid, The Patriarch and 119921 traces back to John Kincaid of Sadsbury Township, Chester County, PA, it seems the earliest possible common ancestor would the the grandfather of these 2 Johns. (Unless 2 sons in the same family were named John.....not very likely) Don ----- Original Message ----- From: Peter A.
