Hi all, My relative Jim King and I are finally making progress on our ancestry, having found we descend from the following couple: Stephen King (Sr.) and Dorcas Watson (daughter of Robert Watson and Rebecca Richmond) who married on 24 Feb. 1789 at Exeter, Washington Co., RI. There is a marriage record also of Earle King and Content Richmond (married on Jan 24, 1768 at Exeter, RI). We suspect these are the parents of Stephen King Sr. We don't find this family in the birth records of Exeter and have been trying to look elsewhere. I am wondering if it is a failure of the records to be recorded. Does anyone know of the book that exists that would include this family? I am hoping to visit the local LDS Family History Center this week and plan to take a look at their listing of books on the King surname. I am sure there are many of them and I would like to narrow down the possible books. Many thanks. Gary Gary K.
