>From what we know, the candidates for who this could be are Rev. John Kinkead, John Kincaid, the weaver, and Dr. John Kincaid (m. Margaret Preeson). Since he was made a guild brother, I would be inclined to cross of Rev. John Kinkead. Since he was an Esquire, I would be inclined to favour Dr. John Kincaid over John Kincaid, the weaver.
