Dear Gary: Good to hear from you. What follows are my mother's (Olivia Perkins Brisbin) notes on Ritchey Kincaid. I hope you find them interesting. in kinship; cousin James OPB notes: (Ed. Note - the following document is well footnoted as seen but the footnotes can not be located) Ritchey Kincaid, 6th son of John Kincaid and Nancy Young, his wife, b. posthumously, 17 Mar. 1815, at Fincastle, Campbell County, Tenn.; d. 23 Feb. 1881, (footnote 1) Clinton, Tenn.: m. (1) at Wells Springs, Campbell County, Tenn., on 14 Nov. 1837 (footnote 2), Margaret Maupin, b. 2 Jan. 1814, Albemarle County, VA.: d. 22 May 1859, Clinton, Tenn., 2nd daughter of Amos Maupin and Sallee Ayres, his wife (footnote 3); m. (2) 19 Oct. 1859, Mrs. Mahala Jane Brazelton, b. 1823, in Tenn.,; d. 27 May 1890, Clinton, Tenn. (footnote 2) The name Ritchey was not used by any of the early Kincaid families in Pennsylvania, Virginia or Kentyucky anbd it, like the mane Alvis, is peculiar to the descendants of John and Nancy Young Kincaid and appears frequently in later generations. Court records, census returns, deeds and even his will show that he consistantly used the name Ritchey, never Richard, and his descendants believe that it is a surname, rather than a nickname for Richard. Nancy Young Kincaid, his mother, died 29 Jan, 1822 when Ritchey was seven years old. "He was brought up in the family of his uncle, Thomas Kincaid (footnote 4), who proved to be a very stern taskmaster. He reared the orphan boy rigorously and showed him no tenderness." (footnote 2) Ritchey Kincaid sold his undivided Moiety or one-ninth interest in the 329 1/2 acres of land belonging to his father, John Kincaid, Sen., deceased, to his brother John (2) Kincaid (footnote 4) on 3 March 1838, for $125.00, "to hold the same as tenant in common". (footnote 5) On 28 July 1846, Ritchey Kincaid deeded one acre of another tract of land on the north side of the Powell Valley Road to John Kincaid (footnote 4), Isaac C. Petree, James Cooper, Martin B. Moss and James J. Marrs, Trustees, "for the purpose of building a meeting house and school and burying ground for the use and benefit of the Methodist EP. Church, S. ..." Witnesses were Jesse Williams and J. C. Shumate. The deed was registered 12 May 1847 by John Grimes, REgister of Campbell County, Tenn. (footnote 6) At a quarterly meeting held in Speedwell Camp Ground on 12 September 1846, two committees were appointed to build two churches, one at Fincastle and one at Big Creek Gap (Later, LaFollette). The committee at Fincastle were: John Kincaid (footnote 4), Isaac Petree and Ritchey Kincaid. "The Kincaid brothers gave the location for the church and parsonage, burned the brick on the ground and furnished much of the labor that went into the building of this first church which was used for a day school, Sunday school and for the benefit of the slaves of the community". (footnote 7) Ritchey and Margaret Kincaid removed to Anderson County, Tenn., where he purchased 400 acres on the Clinch River at Island Ford, for $2750.00, from Samuel Smith on 17 Nov, 1847. (footnote 8) Later, they removed to Clinton where Margaret died 22 May 1859. She was buried in Sunset Cemetery, Clinton. On 19 October 1859, Ritchey Kincaid married, as his second wife, Mrs. Mahala Jane Braselton who had four children by her former husband, and to this union four children were born. Records have not survived to show that Ritchey Kincaid ever owned slaves or what his position was on the question of States Rights before or during the War between the States (1861-1865), but the fact that his three elder sons, William Patton, Corporal; Creed Fulton, Private; and John Emory, Sargaent; served in Co. E. 19th Tennessee Infantry, C.S.A., (footnote 9) indicates that he may have sympathised with the cause of the Confederacy. A fourth son, Timothy Sullins, served as Sergaent in Co. F. 7th Tenn. Mounted Cavalry, U.S.A. (footnote 10) So Ritchey experienced the tragedy of having his "house divided", his sons fighting on opposite sides and the greater tragedy of losing two sons in the war. William Patton, his eldest son, was killed at the Battle of Murphreesboro, Tenn., 31 Dec. 1862 and Creed Fulton, his second son, was killed at the Battle of Kenesaw Mountain, near Marietta, GA., 27 June 1864. (footnote 11) * * * (source OPB) "Ritchey Kincaid, the father of these thirteen children, was a well-to-do farmer, and it is said that he reared his sons in his river bottoms, teaching them to be honest, industrious and God-fearing men. As each one came of age, their father gave them their portion of his property. Mr. Kincaid was a Justice of the Peace for twenty years, County Judge for one term, he was a Democrat, a Mason, a life-long Southern Methodist; he was a very devout man, a pillar in the Church all his life, serving as Steward for some forty years. Truly he was as "one of the Patriarchs." * * * A copy of the deed selling Ritchie's 1/9 interest in the 329 1/2 acres belonging to his father to his brother John is in the Ritchie Kincaid file among the OPB files in the McClung Collection, Knoxville, TN as is a copy of the deed providing land for the building of a church * * * In the Ritchie Kincaid File of the OPB files in the McClung Collection, Knoxville, TN there is an extensive genealogy dealing with the Maupin Family related to Ritchie's wife Margaret Maupin. * * * Ritchie bought 400 acres in Anderson Co., on the Clinch River from Samuel Smith for $2750. Anderson Co., Deed Book 1 p. 238. * * * A photo of Ritchie Kincaid and his wife Margaret Maupin is in the OPB files of the McClung Collection, Knoxville, TN. * * * Ritchie's grave in the sunset cemetery, Clinton, TN was crumbling away and a worker was brought in to repair the gravestone. In doing so he miss read the date and recarved May instead of Mar for the death date. * * * Ritchie's will is in Will Book 1-A 1859-1889 Pages 87 - 91.

Since John(/Margaret?) and Andrew/Mary seem to be brothers, and they move together next in 1770 to live adjacent to two other brothers, and known sons of JtW, the evidence is "almost" compelling that all four could be sons of JtW. Almost.

Note - the following document is well footnoted as seen but the ootnotes can not be located) Ritchey Kincaid, 6th son of John Kincaid and Nancy Young, his wife, . posthumously, 17 Mar. 1815, at Fincastle, Campbell County, Tenn.; d. 23 eb. 1881, (footnote 1) Clinton, Tenn.: m. (1) at Wells Springs, Campbell ounty, Tenn., on 14 Nov. 1837 (footnote 2), Margaret Maupin, b. 2 Jan. 814, Albemarle County, VA.: d. 22 May 1859, Clinton, Tenn., 2nd daughter of mos Maupin and Sallee Ayres, his wife (footnote 3); m. (2) 19 Oct. 1859, rs. Mahala Jane Brazelton, b. 1823, in Tenn.,; d. 27 May 1890, Clinton, enn. (footnote 2) The name Ritchey was not used by any of the early Kincaid families n Pennsylvania, Virginia or Kentyucky anbd it, like the mane Alvis, is eculiar to the descendants of John and Nancy Young Kincaid and appears requently in later generations. Court records, census returns, deeds and ven his will show that he consistantly used the name Ritchey, never ichard, and his descendants believe that it is a surname, rather than a ickname for Richard. Nancy Young Kincaid, his mother, died 29 Jan, 1822 when Ritchey was even years old. "He was brought up in the family of his uncle, Thomas incaid (footnote 4), who proved to be a very stern taskmaster. He reared he orphan boy rigorously and showed him no tenderness." (footnote 2) Ritchey Kincaid sold his undivided Moiety or one-ninth interest in he 329 1/2 acres of land belonging to his father, John Kincaid, Sen., eceased, to his brother John (2) Kincaid (footnote 4) on 3 March 1838, for 125.00, "to hold the same as tenant in common". (footnote 5) On 28 July 1846, Ritchey Kincaid deeded one acre of another tract of and on the north side of the Powell Valley Road to John Kincaid (footnote ), Isaac C. Petree, James Cooper, Martin B. Moss and James J. Marrs, rustees, "for the purpose of building a meeting house and school and urying ground for the use and benefit of the Methodist EP. Church, S. ..." itnesses were Jesse Williams and J. C. Shumate. The deed was registered 12 ay 1847 by John Grimes, REgister of Campbell County, Tenn. (footnote 6) At a quarterly meeting held in Speedwell Camp Ground on 12 September 846, two committees were appointed to build two churches, one at Fincastle nd one at Big Creek Gap (Later, LaFollette). The committee at Fincastle ere: John Kincaid (footnote 4), Isaac Petree and Ritchey Kincaid. "The incaid brothers gave the location for the church and parsonage, burned the rick on the ground and furnished much of the labor that went into the uilding of this first church which was used for a day school, Sunday school nd for the benefit of the slaves of the community". (footnote 7) Ritchey and Margaret Kincaid removed to Anderson County, Tenn., here he purchased 400 acres on the Clinch River at Island Ford, for 2750.00, from Samuel Smith on 17 Nov, 1847. (footnote 8) Later, they emoved to Clinton where Margaret died 22 May 1859. She was buried in Sunset emetery, Clinton. On 19 October 1859, Ritchey Kincaid married, as his second wife, rs. Mahala Jane Braselton who had four children by her former husband, and o this union four children were born. Records have not survived to show that Ritchey Kincaid ever owned laves or what his position was on the question of States Rights before or uring the War between the States (1861-1865), but the fact that his three lder sons, William Patton, Corporal; Creed Fulton, Private; and John Emory, argaent; served in Co. E. 19th Tennessee Infantry, C.S.A., (footnote 9) ndicates that he may have sympathised with the cause of the Confederacy. A ourth son, Timothy Sullins, served as Sergaent in Co. F. 7th Tenn. Mounted avalry, U.S.A. (footnote 10) So Ritchey experienced the tragedy of having is "house divided", his sons fighting on opposite sides and the greater ragedy of losing two sons in the war. William Patton, his eldest son, was illed at the Battle of Murphreesboro, Tenn., 31 Dec. 1862 and Creed Fulton, is second son, was killed at the Battle of Kenesaw Mountain, near Marietta, A., 27 June 1864. (footnote 11) * * * source OPB) Ritchey Kincaid, the father of these thirteen children, was a well-to-do armer, and it is said that he reared his sons in his river bottoms, eaching them to be honest, industrious and God-fearing men.

Mr. incaid was a Justice of the Peace for twenty years, County Judge for one erm, he was a Democrat, a Mason, a life-long Southern Methodist; he was a ery devout man, a pillar in the Church all his life, serving as Steward for ome forty years.

Since John(/Margaret?) and Andrew/Mary seem to be brothers, and they move together next in 1770 to live adjacent to two other brothers, and known sons of JtW, the evidence is "almost" compelling that all four could be sons of JtW. Almost. It's maddening not to be able to put in the final nail. -------------------------------------------------- From: "John Kinkead" <johnkinkead@hotmail.com> Sent: Tuesday, August 21, 2012 5:12 AM To: <kincaid@rootsweb.com> Subject: Re: [KINCAID] [SPAM]Re: Our Kentucky Pioneer Ancestry by June LeeMeffordKinkead > That being said, to perhaps further confuse the issue, at least two of John/Margaret's children married in Bath County and perhaps as many as four or five. The sons named in John/Margaret's will are Thomas, James, Joseph, Archibald, William and John. James married Jean Curry in 1791 in Bath by Rev. John Montgomery. Archibald married Nancy Quarles in 1792 in Woodford County, KY. He's verifiable as the son of John/Margaret. Joseph married Nancy Dickenson in 1795 in Bath.
