Robert Ferguson was a yeoman who, with his wife Jane, sold a parcel of land in Newark to Joseph Kinkead in 1781. He had previously purchased the land from Hugh Glasford on February 21, 1780.

Joseph Kinkead was a clock-maker who purchased land in Newark from Robert Ferguson in 1781. He sold the property to John Ochletree in 1796. Four years later he purchased four acres on the road from Newark to Welsh Tract. Previously (1788), Kinkead bought 20 acres near the Christiana Bridge on the road to Newark from Benjamin Ogle. In that deed Kinkead is described as "watchmaker of White Clay Hundred."
