Who was she if Archibald and Andrew's mother, Mary appears in 1767? In 2006 I went to the Pennsylvania State Archives to do research on counties that I had not researched:Butler and York. But there was a micorfilm roll of taxables for Cumberland County, PA. And I had this Samueal Kinkead in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA for 1762 and I just wanted to confirm that he was there and that I hadn't made a mistake. Here are the taxables for Cumberland County, PA in 1762: 1762 John Kinkead, [93625] merchant of Carlisle, taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA for 150 warranted acres. Cumberland County Tax Record Roll 1399, Pennsylvania State Archives. 1762 James Kinkead [1259] taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA. Cumberland County Tax Record Roll 1399, Pennsylvania State Archives. 1762 George Kinkead [4164] taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA. Cumberland County Tax Record Roll 1399, Pennsylvania State Archives. 1762 Samuel Kinkead taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA at 1. Cumberland County Tax Record Roll 1399, Pennsylvania State Archives. 1762 John Kinkade, [93625] merchant of Carlisle, taxed in Carlisle, Cumberland County, PA. Cumberland County Tax Record Roll 1399, Pennsylvania State Archives. 1762 Andrew Kinkade [000018] taxed in Carlisle, Cumberland County, PA for 1 lot. Cumberland County Tax Record Roll 1399, Pennsylvania State Archives. Here are the taxables for 1763: 1763 Andrew Kinkead, [000018] carpenter, taxed in Carlisle, Cumberland County, PA for lot # 288. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA 1763 Widow Kinkead [1263] taxed in lower Tyrone Township, Cumberland County, PA for 100 unwarranted acres. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA 1763 Andrew Kinkead [000018] taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA, no acres. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA 1763 George Kinkead [4164] taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA for 200 acres..

Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA 1763 John Kinkead, [93625] merchant of Carlisle, taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberalnd County, PA for 300 acres. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA The widow in Lower Tyrone Township, Cumberland County, PA is most likely the wife of Samuel Kinkead of Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA. This is the only citation to this Samuel. But his presence leaves open the possibility of other offspring for this family cluster. And it also adds weight to Andrew the Carpenter being the father of Andrew & Archibald Kinkead of Tyrone Township. It also cleans up the timeline. Here are the taxables for 1761: 1761 George Kinkead [4164] taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA, no acres. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA 1761 John Kinkead, [93625] merchant of Carlisle taxed in Middleton Township, Cumberland County, PA for 300 warranted acres.

Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA 1761 Andrew Kinkead, [000018] inmate, taxed in Carlisle, Cumberland County, PA. Cumberland County Historical Society, Carlisle, PA I also discovered a possible earlier connection between the Kinkeads of Cumberland County, PA and Michael Kinkead of York County, PA. A John Agnew is listed as one of the mortgagees with John Kinkead, Merchant of Carlisle: 1765 John Kinkead, [93625] merchant of Carlisle, John Steel, John Vanleer, & John Agnew, all of Carlisle, received from Joseph Boyd, mason of Carlisle, Cumberland County, PA, a mortgage of 26 pounds.16.2 due October 1, 1765 for: a house & lot in Carlisle on Pomfret St. & 1 horse cart, 1 feather bed, 3 quilts, 1 chaff bed, 2 blankets, 1 tea table & equipage, 1 pewter basin, 6 plates,1 tankard, 1 spade, 1 shovel, 1 crowbar & sledge, 1 silk damask gown, 1 large bible & 10 small books, 2 silver teaspoons, 1 chest with sundry goods, carpenter tools, 1 trowel, 1 hammer, 2 brackets, & 1 tub.
