David (Kimsey)'s father, Benjamin (Kimsey) was this families' immigrant and he married in Virginia, Margaret Gregg, daughter of John Gregg of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania. John Gregg and Benjamin Kimsey were both in Augusta County, Virginia about 1750. David (Kimsey) was born about 1755 (Note: other sources place his birthdate closer to 1763), probably in Augusta County, Virginia. Both David and his father Benjamin were in Buncombe County, North Carolina in the 1800 census.
