The David Logan and John Mills are also intriguing. I wonder if Elizabeth Logan m John Kincaid was related? A John Mills held land in Albemarle Co. A Hopewell church group from NJ went to Towan Co. NC where they started what is called the "Jersey Community" where they built a church. This was a Baptist church but was alos used by Quakers and Presps and expect maybe some Dutch Reform. Rev John Alderson Sr was associated with the Hopewell Church in NJ. He held land recorded in Frederick Co. He became minister at the Smith & Linville Creeks Church in Augusta Co. (Rockingham Co) and extented his circuit into Greenbrier Co. My Fulkerson family moved from Hopewell NJ to Rowan Co. at the same time as the Hopewell group. They then moved to Washington Co. VA with my line moving on to Campbell Co. TN then Cole Co. MO. In Campbell Co. they lived next to James Miller/Elizabeth Kincaid and Robert Glenn.
