Facts and Events
John Kincaid was one of the Early Settlers of Augusta County, Virginia __________________________ [edit] Advisory on John KincaidCaution, this John Kincaid has been sometimes confused with another John Kincaid, son of David Kincaid of Albemarle County, who lived in Albemarle County, Virginia and married Elizabeth Logan. This John Kincaid lived in Augusta (and later Bath) County, Virginia and died in Bath County, VA on 2 July, 1801. It is now known how this John Kincaid is related to the other Kincaids of the Calfpasture of Augusta County, more research is necessary. Based upon the will of John and his second wife Elizabeth (possibly Hamilton), it is fairly evident which children came from each marriage of John Kincaid (see placement of John Kincaid's children, below) [edit] Early Land Acquisitions in Augusta County, VAAs listed in the Land Record, below, John Kincaid acquired land (530 acres) in the "Calfpasture" area of Augusta County, Virginia in 1754: Acquisition of Land from Chalkley's:

The terms of her and her husband's will, in which they appear to distinguish between "his children" and "her children" have led to the assumption that she was wife number two. John's first wife is also supposed to have been an Elizabeth.*28 The terms of (2nd wife's?) Elizabeth's will are abstracted as follows: ... I Elizabeth Kinkead of Bath County and commonwealth of Virginia relict and Widow of the late John Kinkead of said county and state ...
