I have pondered that for a long time. Who was he junior to? I thought maybe John Kincaid the patriarch, but I think his John Jr. is accounted for. And John Kinkead, Merchant of Carlisle's John Jr. is accounted for. John Kinkead of Sadsbury Township's John Jr. is accounted for in Bart Township, Lancaster County, died in 1811. There is a John Kinkead in Chester County: 1768 John Kincade, inmate, taxed in East Nottingham Township, Chester County, PA. Provincial Tax of 1768. 1769 John Kincade, weaver, taxed in East Nottingham Township, Chester County, PA for 1 horse, 1 cow. Pennsylvania Archives, s. 3, v. 9, p. 573. 1771 John Kinkead, labourer, taxed in East Nottingham Township, Chester County, PA for 100 acres, 1 horse,1 cow, 2 sheep. Pennsylvania Archives, s. 3, v. 9, p. 742. 1772 John Kinkaid taxed in West Nottingham Township, Chester County, PA, payed 5 pounds rent to Phebe Meshman, 1 cow. 1773 John Kinkead, East Nottingham Township, posted a recognizance bond at Chester County Court of Quarter Sessions, February 1773 for James Campbell. Chester County Archives & Records Service, Index to Quarter Sessions Indictment Records, 1681-1778, K. 1773 John Kinkade, victim/complainant, riot, February 1773, against Robert Criswell, East Nottingham Township, Chester County, PA. Chester County Archives & Records Service, Index to Quarter Sessions Indictment Records, 1681-1778, C. Then there is this warrant that I have previously attributed to John Kinkead Jr. son of John Kinkead of Sadsbury Township, giving his son John this warrant. I could be wrong and this could be the father of the John Kincaid in Yohogania County and Samuel Kinkead (died 1779). 1772 John Kinkead [000012] received warrant #304 for 70 acres in Bart Township, Lancaster County, PA, May 21, 1772. A Lancaster County, PA deed, Deed Book D, Vol. 6, p. 27 stated that John Kinkead of Bart Township, Lancaster County, PA was the son of John Kinkead, Esq, who had been granted the Bart Township land on a warrant and had given it to his son. Pennsylvania State Archives 1772 John Kinkead. [000012] By virtue of a warrant bearing date the 21st day of May 1772, surveyed the 26th day of August unto John Kinkead the above described tract of land situate in Bart Township in ye County of Lancaster containing eighty-five acres & sixty-six perches of land besides the allowance of six pcent. Jasper Scull. Adjacent land owners: Abraham Beam, Jacob Graff, Thomas Smith, George Merkel, Jacob Foutz, Michael Wether. Pennsylvania State Archives, RG-17, Records of the Land Office, COPIED SURVEYS, 1681-1912, Vol. C-161, p. 233. One of the adjacent land owners is Abraham Beam. John Kinkead served with Jacob Beam in the Washington County, PA Militia. But if this is so it still doesn't explain to me who this other John Kinkead is? He could be the father of John and Samuel (Will 1776-1779). See also: 1763 Elizabeth Kinkaid married Jacob Beam, June 22, 1763 in Lancaster County, PA.
