Newspaper Heraldry: Kincheloe/Neale

Sun (Baltimore, MD)
23 February 1908

Messrs. Editors:

Perhaps the following data, which I recently came across at Fairfax Courthouse, may prove of assistance to "M.," Washington, D.C.  My interest in the Kincheloe family comes from the fact of an intermarriage between one of that name (Elizabeth Kincheloe, daughter of Major Robert Kincheloe) and Lewis Neale, son of George Neale, Sr. At this time these two families were residents of Wood county, West Virginia. What I copied from records at Fairfax was taken from the will of Daniel Kincheloe, dated July 16, 1776, and recorded October 17, 1785, in Book E, page 115. His wife's name was Suckey. To his son John he "gave but 5 shillings, already having his portion." His other children were Daniel, Elizabeth Prince, Nancy Smith, Sarah Wickliffe, Mary, Cornelius, Robert, Nestor, Hector and Jesse. He had land in Prince William county, too.
