JAMES MADISON3 KINCAID, SR. (SUSAN2 WILSON, DAVID ROBERT1) was born January 01, 1830 in Powell Valley, Claiborne Co, TN, and died April 17, 1897 in Palouse, Whitman co, WA. He married OLIVIA P. MOSS March 10, 1856 in Knox Co, KY, daughter of WILLIAM MOSS and MARY DAVIS. She was born November 01, 1835 in Claiborne Co, TN, and died May 15, 1915 in Williamsburg, Whitley Co, KY. More About JAMES MADISON KINCAID, SR.: Burial: April 1897, Greenwood, Palouse, Whitman Co, WA Notes for OLIVIA P. MOSS: The following is an exact copy of the notes which Olivia Moss Kincaid made in her own handwriting to guide her in a short talk given before a banquet of Pioneer Women in Knoxville, Tennessee in 1911. The first page is lost so the copy begins with the 2nd page. "...if I can tell them of how I found the solution perhaps I can help some other women who is struggling under similar conditions. I was born in Tennessee, just a few miles from where the three great states of Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia join. My parents were true southern people and my early life was much the same as most southern girls before the war. I had good home training and was given a good education, being put in a female college and kept there until I finished my education. While not in school, my mother taught me all kinds of domestic work, for in those days, we had to spin and weave and then make our clothes by hand for sewing machines were unknown. At the age of 23 I married a well-to-do young southern man, (James Madison Kincaid, Sr.) five years my senior. His wealth consisted mostly of a large plantation and negro slaves. Our future was bright. My husband was a fine businessman, energetic, sober and all that a young woman could be proud of. While his attention was given to the plantation and slaves, mine was given to our home. But during all these happy days there was a dark cloud coming to wipe away all that we had worked so hard to save. With the Civil War came my first great struggle. For three long years we were in the midst of it. Oh! those Dark Days! I can never tell of my anguish! We had to stand helpless and see everything we had taken. Our timber, our crops, fences, barns, stock and finally our house. Oh! Those dreadful days and fearful nights ... never knowing what sorrow the next moment would bring. When we could endure it no longer, we left for Knoxville to seek protection with our 3 little boys for my husband was a southern sympathizer and his life was likely to be taken at any time. We were in Knoxville only a few months when General Longstreet besieged the city. Everything was burned and with it our home and all we had left, not even a change of clothing. There was nothing left for us to do but try to find some place where we could at least be safe. So, saying adieu to home, loved ones and all, we started ... we knew not where. Taking a flatboat at Knoxville on the Tennessee River with nothing but our little boys .. and no clothing, we traveled on the flatboat for 5 days and nights guarded by soldiers until we could reach a landing where we might take a train to Nashville and thence to Louisville, taking 8 or 9 days to make the trip from Knoxville to Louisville, which we can now make in a few hours by train Arriving in Louisville, we found ourselves without anything and only a few dollars. We had thousands of dollars in Confederate money but it was of no use at that time. From Louisville we found our way to a small Iowa town. You can never know the delightful rest and sweet sleep we experienced when we reached that small northern town, where all was quiet. After years in the midst of that dreadful war to know that least we could enjoy one more good nights rest. Without home, money, or anything of this world's goods, we at least were safe, but the little boys must be provided for. My husband soon found a position as a clerk in a dry goods store and I took in sewing, often working until after midnight to keep our boys in clothes and others in something to eat. About this time we began hearing and reading such glowing reports from the far west where new country was being opened and a poor man could find a home. Others were going almost daily from all parts of the North and South and we thought perhaps might be successful in finding a home where we might educate our boys. Early in life I learned to trust my Savior for ALL and this is the solution. Through all these trying days He was with me and in after life when trials came He was near me and all was bright and though my heart ached I could trust all to Him and smile and hope for brighter days afterwhile. Early in the fall of 1865 we started from Grinelle, Iowa stopping in St. Joseph, Mo., trying a few more months to build up provisions to help us on our western trip. Early the next spring with a small party of emigrants, we started from St. Joe on our long journey by ox team across the plains to California. Words are inadequate to express my feelings during all those fearful days and nights in 65 and 66 with the Indians on the war path and we did not know at what moment our lives might be taken for emigrant trains were massacred in front and behind us. Days and days we rode with ox teams and covered wagons through the heat and sand, storms and all. What slow progress we made! only a few miles each day. One can never know the anguish experienced. At night the men would drive the wagons in a circle to form a fort for fear the Indians might attack before morning, as they would spring on a party without warning. Inside the "fort" women and children would sleep while the men kept guard. We had to take all of our possessions with us, cooking on camp fires and going for days without fresh water. When we had traveled about 2 months, Marshall Moss Kincaid aged 18 months fell ill. What anxious days! Away out there on the great plains, thousands of miles from anyone - no physician - no help. At last his little life was taken from us and we had to bury his little body as best we could in the sands of that great desert, never to locate his grave and only to know that the wolves would devour his body. With broken hearts we started again on that long journey, hardly daring to hope for the end. Winter overtook us at Salt Lake City. Upon arrival there I was stricken with typhoid fever and other reverses detained us there for about 3 years. At that time Mormonism was at its highest. Brigham Young was then building the "Holy City" as Salt Lake was then known. The Temple was being built, the great wall that was to surround the city, the (?tabernacle?) and so much of what is of interest to tourists now. Our stay was anything but pleasant for one who was not a Mormon and could not be persuaded to become one. No Christian influence, no schools, no churches. We could not raise our boys under such conditions. As soon as we were able we started again hoping to find some place we might have a Christian influence for our children. After traveling three months we found a spot where we could rent a garden and send our children to school --- previous to this time I had taught them myself. Through all these trying years when my husband would work so hard trying to get a start when some reverse would come to sweep it away, he would become so discouraged and despondent which would make it so hard for me since I had many of the burdens to bear with him. But thru it all I could smile and say "the Lord's will be done". It would be brighter after a while. Then I could talk to my little boys, now six of them -- and tell them what great men they would make and for each to try to make the world better for having lived in it and I have come to see my dreams realized. After a few years in southern California, we went to a stock farm in the northern part of the state and there did well until a hard winter came for which we were not prepared. Our stock were all taken, breaking us up again. It seemed that this was the hardest struggle yet. We were older, our children needed advantages and there we were hemmed in by another Indian War (Modoc). I can see my little ones walking on the snow without either shoes or stockings. I had used everything that I could find, making shoes out of old hats, coats or anything to keep them warm. We had very little to eat -- beans and some bacon. I would season the beans with the bacon and then save it to fry for breakfast. When the Indian War was over and weather would permit, we started again, this time for the Washington Territory where we had learned that new country was being opened (we had started to this location years before but circumstances had kept us back) and we could find good farming land and get a home for improving the land. This trip was also made by wagon and over such mountain roads as I have never seen. In crossing the Sierra Nevadas we had to cut down and tie large trees to our wagons to hold them back - and so many like experiences that I haven't space to mention. At a small town in Oregon, our children were stricken with diphtheria. What a seige! Our only little girl was taken -- making one more grave to leave. Again with broken hearts we continued on within a few miles of the place we expected to locate. We were again delayed and surrounded by another Indian War. This time we had to seek a Fort for protection. At last the war was over and we were allowed to leave the fort. We found, in a few more days of travel, a country rich in timber, water and farming land. The government would give title to one hundred and sixty acres to any man who would improve the land. This was known as the homestead right. We settled on the land and prepared to build us a home. We were pioneers and only those who have labored under the same conditions can appreciate the word. Myself and the little ones lived in a tent while my husband and the older boys worked in the mountains to get logs to build the house. We built a 2 room house, which after a few months I papered with newspapers and covered the rough floor with rag carpets. You can never know just how proud I was of that home. We were over a hundred miles from the nearest market and it took several days to make the trip. But these conditions did not remain long as the western country changes wonderfully in a few years and in those few years we had good schools, churches and all the advantages for our children that an eastern town could give. I still have my home at this place -- my husbands death occurring 14 years ago. We lived to raise 9 children to useful man and womanhood of the 11 initially born to us. Words cannot express all that we went through but for the sake of my children I could smile through it all and I have been more than repaid. Just to see these fine young men and one young woman -- each trying to make the world a better for having lived in it -- the lesson I always tried to teach them. This is enough to make any Mother's heart glad. Received from Robyn Coyle Cross on 2/17/2001: I noticed that you have a Olivia "Moss" listed on your Roll Call list.

SCOTT May 22, 1884 in Knoxville, Knox Co, TN. She was born November 11, 1845, and died September 12, 1911 in Knoxville, Knox Co, TN. Notes for HENRY HARRISON KINCAID: He lost a leg during the American Civil War. Fought with the Union Forces. Mariana Wilke has "Harrison was listed in the 1850 Census for Claiborne County,Tennessee as living with his parents on their farm and with most of his siblings. The farm is Dwelling 1352 of the 7th Sub-division ofthe Census. He is listed as attending school within the last year. Harrison received wounds in the Civil War which later required amputation of both legs per 'Early Iron Industry of Norris Area' by M.A. Wilson, in a quote from John Keck, age 88 in 1935 and living on Big Barren Creek not far from the site of Kincaid Forge. The 1880 Census for Claiborne County lists 'Henry' H. Kincaid asliving with his brother, Alvis, in Claiborne County. He is a miller and is listed as 39 years old. This may not be Harrison, but it is assumed that it is. The Civil War Pension Records for Henry H. Kincaid provided the following information. According to William C. Kincaid of Anderson County, TN who was 34 years old in September 29,1883, and living in Clinton or Chilton and who is the nephew of Henry, Henry fought in the Federal Army coming home in March 1864. William C. was living with his uncle William Kincaid in Claiborne County about 12 miles from the mother's home of Henry. He says the Rebels were raiding in and out and very many times he was compelled to visit William Kincaid and saw Henry's leg which was swollen and giving yellowish discharge. Henry dealt in cattle and seldom walks. Alvis S. Kincaid, Henry's brother also testified on Henry's behalf September 29, 1883. Alvis was 35 years old and living in Chilton. Henry served as a Second Lieutenant, Co. H in 8th Tennessee Cavalry and later First Lieutenant. On November 11, 1897 his wife Sallie was 52 years old and living in Knoxville.
