AMAZING information just came in from Woodford County that shows my lineage back to the John Kinkead, husband of Margaret, who died in Woodford County, KY in 1820. The documents show land records for John's son William, named in the will of John dated 1817, receiving a lot of land in 1823. This same land is sold in August of 1841 by John D, Presley, Evelina, Margaret and William's wife Elizabeth. This is the missing link that now allows me to positively connect back two more generations from my John D Kinkead (1811-1895). It also shows that the William in the will of John(Margaret) Kinkead was married to an Elizabeth (I believe Elizabeth Fawcett) and positively places my Kinkeads in Woodford County. Super super super exciting! Ok, just took a quick break to let yall know. Back to looking at the docs...
Exciting indeed! Good luck on getting even further back in time!
