I'm not sure that I understand what is open to debate? Thomas Kinkead's land as compared to Widow Kinkead's land? Sincerely Norman Kincaide ----- Original Message ---- From: Peter A.

Near as I can tell this appears to be land in what became Madison Township, Perry County. Looks like the Liberty Valley area. What was the description of the land that Thomas Kinkead sold to David Dunseath in 1777? What became of this land? Any proof would have to address this question as well.
