[snip] Next I give to my cousin Michael Kinkaid ... [snip] In reading Samuel Kinkead's will I do not see a Michael Kincaid Jr. Only cousin Michael who is the father of Samuel. [My reply]. I do not see how one can make Samuel a 1st cousin once removed.  For many years cousins were cousins and in many cases uncles, etc. were simply referred to as kinsmen.  In the first bequests, he clearly leaves land to his cousin Samuel and goes to further identify him as son to Michael Kinkaid.  This is the first reference in the Will to a Michael Kinkaid and he does not call this Michael his cousin.  The next references to a Michael he does specifically call his cousin Michael.  I have not, in the slightest, entertained a notion other than that Samuel died leaving land to his 1st cousin Samuel, son of a Michael, and also left personal property to his 1st cousin Michael, possibly another son of Michael or perhaps son of another uncle. Hence, my reference to a Michael Sr. and a Michael Jr. In context here Samuel is in all appearances a young single man - he being about to march in the Continental Service.  He is old enough to hold land and clearly did so.  His cousin, Samuel, is also old enough to hold land as he was left land in the Will and no references are made to others to hold land for him until he reaches the age of majority.  Samuel, son of Michael, starts to appear in the tax lists in 1779.  However, we first see a Michael Kincaid in 1762 - then being old enough to having fathered children. To me this supports the notion of a Michael Sr. An interesting question is where did the land that Samuel come from.  It is interesting to note that Samuel, son of Michael, appears in the Fawn township tax lists as holding 270 acres the same year as the Probate of his cousin's Will.
