Your mutation to 11 at marker 4 (DYS 391) appears to be a parallel so you can discount it. This puts you at straight AAV for A-2. Within our project it appears your most likely closest match is #49289, however, it is also possible that you would connect to the common ancestor for 2b before you connect to him or any other 2a participant. This connection would be long before any removal to the colonies and several generations back. 2519 and 15550 appear closer to each other than to you because they share 2 mutations from A-2 AAV (CDYb and 413b), however, both of these mutations show up in other sets within Group A in a pattern that suggests there were multiple parallel mutations at these markers. We really do not have enough results in A-2a to determine which of the mutations is significant and which is not. So yes, your best bet is to look to a possible relationship with 15550 given the locations of your ancestors and seek a connection to set 2b in Ireland or Scotland. The more set 2b participants connecting to each other, the better the possibility of finding a historic ancestor with the initial mutation to 18 at marker 30 which is the defining mutation for this group and the better the odds that you connect within an historic time frame to this set. #49289 has me a bit stumped because he shares a mutation with 2519 but does not share the mutations that 2519 and 15550 share. So far he is the lone representative of A-2 among a sea of A-1 Kincaids whom he interacts with in the same WVA location. He could represent a 1800 immigration from Ireland. 2519's ancestor (born 7 years earlier than #49289's vetted ancestor) lived and died in Limerick. He could also represent an 1800's immigrant from PA into WVA or the 9 at marker 15 (459b) could be (shudder) parallel. And yes, Peter, there is the possibility that the 9 was the original and A-1's 10 is the mutation in which case every individual in 2a and each of the subsets common ancestors could derive from an ancient branch without a relationship to any of the others within historic times.

So my sample 4164 is closer to 15550 than 5803 and 93625.. So in a hypthetical my George Kinkead could not be the brother of John Kinkead, Merchant of Carlisle represented by 93625. James Kinkead of Rowan Co. NC I believe to be the James Kinkead that is in Lancaster County and Cumberland County, PA from 1759-1767.

On 37 markers they differ only at marker 35 where 5803 has a 40 instead of the AAV 39. They both have a 38 at marker 34 where the AAV is 37. 15550 has the AAV of 17 at marker 30 while 5803 and 93625 have the 18 indicative of the A-2b subset. I consider this last mutation to be significant and to have occured at least one generation prior to 1739 when James/Hannah of Rowan Co. NC was born (this line is unvetted). 15550 also has a 38 at marker 35 meaning his line dropped a repetition at this marker while 5803's line gained one. I can pretty much guarantee that 5803 and 93625 are related more closely to each other than to any other participant in the project.

This is significant because James Kinkead of West Pennsborough Township, later became Dickinson Township, Cumberland County, PA, was a weaver. Your William could have apprenticed with James Kinkead of West Pennsborough. For me, I accept John Kincaid's Revolutionary War pension application as conclusive that he is the son of John Kinkead, Merchant of Carlisle and that sample 93625 is representative of John Kinkead, Merchant of Carlisle's line along with his ownership of the land bequeathed to him by his father. I believe your William is from one of these two families: James Kinkead of West Pennsborough/ Dickinson Township or John Kinkead, Merchant of Carlisle. I would need clarification of which line he is closer to genetically: sample 15550 or 93625.

In comparing DNA 93625 to 5803 in group A set 2b; it shows they match except for marker 34. It would be nice to see how they would match at marker 67. How certain is 93625 to be the s/o John of Carlisle? As Norman has indicated he has suspicions that William Kinkead 1785 possibilty could be a unknown son of Andrew Kinkead 1746, thus a grandson of the merchant of Carlisle. William Kinkead's tax records indicate he was a weaver in Rye Twp, Cumberland Co. and Perry Co. from 1820 to his death in 1849. Records also show that Williams family lived in Rye Twp from 1820 thru 1857 near Sherman Creek along which John Kinkead the merchant retaind property. I am also searching all the census records for various Kinkead spellings for possable birth dates that match Williams 1785; to date no luck in finding that Andrew 1746 is a match.
