==George William Kincaid== George William "Billy" Kincaid was born 11 Feb 1882 in [[Perry County, Arkansas]], the son of [[#James B Kincaid|James B Kincaid]] by his wife [[#Frankie Coats|Frankie Coats]]. (He states his own birthplace, on his WWII Draft Registration Card in 1942.) In 1900, George is enumerated living with his parents in Wilson Township, Yell County, Arkansas. (Yell County is just West of Perry County (see [http://www.myarkansasgenealogy.com/ar_maps/ar_cf.htm Arkansas County Formation Maps]) On 12 Sep 1902, while residing in Pontoon, [[Yell County, Arkansas]], as "Billie Kincade" he took out a license to marry "[[#Margaret Florence Roper|Miss Florence Cobb]]". They married however in Conway County, by a Justice of the Peace. The part of Yell County where Pontoon was, sticks into Conway County, so perhaps it was closer to find a JP in Conway. Also the 1910 census proves that she was born Florence Roper and at the time of her marriage to Billie, was either a widow or divorcee, with one young son Emmett Cobb (b 1899) from her 1898 Yell County marriage to Robert H Cobb. (See Emmett on [http://trees.ancestry.com/owt/person.aspx?pid=167455555 OneWorldTree here stating that he was born in "Fowler, Yell County"]) George and Florence lived in Yell County until at least 1910, but by 1918 they are living at Atkins, in [[Pope County, Arkansas]]. They are enumerated in 1920 in the township of Lee, Pope County. George and Florence had about eight children in Arkansas, where she died in 1922. My client tells me that around this time, early 1920s, George William "Billie" Kincaid shot and killed 2 or 3 persons in his barn, on his property. He spent some time in prison for this. He moved to Little Rock, [[Pulaski County, Arkansas]] where he is living in 1942, but later moved to Los Angeles, Los Angeles County, [[California]] where he died on 24 Apr 1960. ===Primary documents for 2=== *[http://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&rank=0&gsfn=&gsln=Kincaid&sx=&f19=&f20=&f21=&f14=&rg_81004011__date=1882&rs_81004011__date=2&f16=&f9=&f10=&_8000C002=&_80008002=&_80018002=&f23=&f22=&gskw=&prox=1&db=1900usfedcen&ti=0&ti.si=0&gss=angs-d&pcat=35&fh=12&recid=3286192&recoff=3+16 1900 Census of Wilson Township, Yell County, Arkansas] : "John B Kincaid, Oct 1858, 45 [sic], married 20 years ago, AR/AL/AL, farmer, rents home; Frankie Kincaid, Mar 1858, 42, married 20 years ago, mother of 7, 7 living, AR/TN/TN, no occupation; George W Kincaid, son, Feb 1881, 18, single AR; Maudie Kincaid, daughter, Aug 1884, 15 AR; Eliza Kincaid, daughter, Dec 1886, 13 AR; Charles O Kincaid, son, Apr 1889, 11 AR; Ora E Kincaid, daughter, Mar 1892, 8 AR; Mary E Kincaid, daughter, Sep 1895, 4 AR; James A Kincaid, son, Oct 1898, 1 AR; Mina WARD, 21, boarder AR; Arcel W TRACY, 21, boarder AR; Maudie OWEN, 18, boarder AR" *Marriage, Yell County, Arkansas : **"Marriage license for Billie Kincaid of Pontoon, Yell County, aged 21 and Miss Florence Cobb of Pontoon, Yell County, aged 22; signed 11 Sep 1902 G W Hunnicott County Clerk, W C Hunt, D.C." **Marriage certificate Conway County, T.C.
