    3. I do not know how Mr. Kincaid connectes to the WV Kincaid's. wvgazette.com #frank.cnpapers.net © Copyright 1996-2008 The Charleston Gazette R. Eugene Kincaid R. Eugene Kincaid, 89, of St. Albans and Niota, Tenn., was peacefully called home to his Lord on November 15, 2008 after a sudden illness and less than one year after the death of his beloved wife of 65 years, Anne. Gene was the son of Roscoe and Lydia Kincaid from Parkersburg. Born of proud and independent Scotch-Irish stock, he led a vigorous and accomplished life from his youth in Parkersburg to his years in the Kanawha Valley as an independent businessman and entrepreneur. He graduated from West Virginia University with a Bachelor of Science degree in chemical engineering in 1942, married Anne, a coalminer's daughter from Morgantown, shortly after and set out to change the world. Gene's life work contributed to the betterment of man. During the war years (World War II,) while at Union Carbide, he was instrumental in developing the chemical engineering process to make synthetic rubber. This was a critical step in the war effort and helped to save thousands of lives. Striking out on his own, he developed a successful agricultural chemical company which helped to increase the yield of corn in a farmer's field and helped to control the pests and diseases that attacked the food crops. Family illness took the family to Clearwater, Florida, where Gene continued his entrepreneurial path, but he returned to West Virginia where he found the second two “loves” of his life, flying and Alderson-Broaddus College. To him, nothing was better than landing a small plane on the grass airports around the valley. His lifelong willingness to help others was never more evident than in his relationship with A.B. College. Gene became a trustee of the college in 1981 and served for more than nine years. He and Anne started a scholarship fund in memory of their son, Daniel Thomas Kincaid, who died when 13 years old. Gene worked tirelessly to improve the school's standing and recently established a second scholarship fund in memory of his wife, Anne. These funds have helped many young West Virginian men and women to achieve a college education and particularly earn degrees in nursing, health sciences and chemistry. For his work, Gene was awarded an honorary doctorate from Alderson-Broaddus College and was selected as the Outstanding Philanthropist of West Virginia in 1990. The Kincaid Residence Hall at A.B. College is named after R. Eugene Kincaid. Gene loved his family and was very proud of his children, Brian Stephen and his wife, Lou Ann Kincaid, Carol Anne and her husband, Michael Vitek, and Ronald Eugene and his wife, Susan Kincaid; his grandchildren, Brian Stephen Kincaid II and his wife, Mandy, Christy Kincaid Farmer and her husband, William Farmer, Eric Daniel Kincaid, Ian Daniel Colton, Courtney Colton Beaupre and her husband, Jason Beaupre, Timothy Vitek, Jennifer Vitek, Lydia Abigail Kincaid and Caleb Claiborne Kincaid; and his great-grandchildren, Christian Michael Farmer, Brianna Rose Farmer, Keaton Briley Farmer and Juneau Colton Beaupre. He is also survived by numerous nephews and nieces. Gene was preceded in death by his sister, Marjorie Kincaid McDaniel, and is survived by his brother, Ernest Kincaid of Cincinnati, Ohio. A memorial service in celebration of his life will be held at 6 p.m. Thursday, November 20, at the First Baptist Church, St. Albans. Graveside service and interment will be 1:30 p.m. Friday in Mount Olivet Cemetery, Parkersburg. Viewing will be two hours prior to the service Thursday at the church.

    3. The 1920 census shows R. Eugene Kincaid, a. 2/12 months, living with parents Roscoe a. 31 and Lydia in Roane County, WV. R. Eugene Kincaid's first name was also Roscoe, according to the census. Father Roscoe's WWI draft card (registrations were in 1917-1918) shows his name as Daniel Roscoe Kincaid, born in Rushville, WV on June 10, 1888. He gave his employment merchant, post master and farmer in Looneyville, WV. The 1900 Roane Co, WV, Smithfield, census shows a Daniel Kincaid b. 1848 and wife Martha b. 1855 with a large family that includes the above Daniel R. b. 1888. The 1860 Roane County, WV shows a Daniel G Kincaid a.11 as the son of Geo W. Kincaid a. 42 and wife Mary C (Campbell). a. 32. They were living next to Daniel Campbell a. 63 and wife Catherine a.60 and daughter Sarah R. a. 15. In 1850, George W and wife Mary C. were in Fayette County, WV ---again living next to Daniel Campbell and wife Catherine. George and Mary had a George Thos. a. 1 in this census, along with Mary C. Kincaid jr. a. 3. This appears to be a line back to Thomas Kincaid/Hannah Tincher?
