    1. Re: [KINCAID] Kinkeads from Londonderry
    2. Sue Liedtke
    3. My suggestion as to which Kincaids would be Thomas/Margaret Lockhart d 1750, John the Weaver and possibly Andrew/Isabella who bought land on Cubb Creek in 1764 along with son Andrew Jr. (Andrew Jr is of Augusta Co. when he sells the land in 1770. There is an Andrew in Augusta Co.1752-4. Andrew & Isabella are very important names in the Capt. William/Eleanor Gay family). My hypothesis is that these 3 Kincaid elders plus David/Winnifred and James/Jean can account for all early Greater Augusta Co. A-1 Kincaids. Hamilton, Elliot, Walkup, Graham, Campbells and Gay are all associated with the Great and Little Calf Pasture Rivers in Augusta Co. Elliot and Walkup were pretty much confined to the Little Calf Pasture. Hamiltons and Grahams appear on both Rivers. Campbells are on the Great Calf Pasture and in Albemarle Co. The families are closely woven together for several generations. Hamiltons, Elliots, Walkups, Grahams and Campbells all show up in early Greenbrier Co. as well. The 1739 migration may be a secondary migration of these families as at least some of the Hamiltons arrived in 1733 on the Ship Hope. Archibald Hamilton Res. Ards County Downs with wife Frances Martha Hamilton unmarried age 17 Andrew Hamilton age 24 with wife Martha Kinkead Hamilton age 21 Andrew/Martha Hamilton owned land on the Great Calf Pasture near the land of Rev John, John the Weaver and Thomas/Margaret Lockhart d 1750. Their daughter Isabella m Andrew, son of William/Eleanor Gay Kincaid. William/Eleanor Kincaid lived on land at the head of the Great Calf Pasture near land granted to William Preston in 1750 who sold to George Campbell & Samuel/Margaret Campbell Tincher who sold to Thomas/Hannah Tincher Kincaid in 1770. Hannah was dau of Samuel/Margaret Tincher. According to what I have gleaned from World Connect Archibald (m Francis Calhoun), Martha and Andrew were children of Audley Harrison Hamilton b 1677, Londonderry IR d 1762 Donegal Castle, Donegal, IR. William/Alice Hamilton who owned land on the Little Calf Pasture is also Audley's son. The Hamiltons were in Lancastor Co. PA prior to coming to Augusta Co.

Andrew/Mary were neighbors to Alexander Hamilton on the Little Calf Pasture River in 1777.. The History of Woodford Co.

    2. Peter A. Kincaid
    3. I don't see anything in Lyman Chalkey's writings here that the Kincaids came from Londonderry. He talks about who went with him to Orange Co., Va. Furthermore, in the absence of a quoted source he, writing in 1912, would not be a source for a family arriving in the early to mid 1700s.
