William McKindree was a Methodist minister who rode a circuit in VA and KY in the early 1800s. Since the family was Methodist, I've wondered if the name was given to honor the minister or a female ancestor's line. I always leaned toward the minister because I had never seen the name in my research in Nicholas and surrounding counties. This adds a new possibility. What is your time period?
