JAMES KINCADE
In the fall of 1852, James Kincade, coming from Indiana on his westward way in search of a new location, brought up in Pymosa township, where he settled and began improvements. He remained until the time of his death, which occurred about two or three years after his arrival. After his demise, his family removed from the State and scattered, some going to Colorado, the remainder to California. Kincade was a native of New York, where he had spent his youth. From there he removed to Indiana, coming here as before stated. He was a good citizen and well liked.
