Thanks. > >Pat Taylor > > > > Pat, Is it at all possible that this family was originally from York County, Pennsylvania? The reason I ask is that my line descends from Victor King. Victor King was one of five children who accompanied their parents, John and Jean King, from Ireland to the portion of York County which is now Adams County, Pennsylvania. The other children were: Samuel, William, James, and Martha. Martha and William never married. James seems to have married, but not to have had any children. Samuel is known to have married and had at least two children, John and Joan. Samuel disappears from the Pennsylvania records and is thought to have migrated to Virginia, or the Carolinas. Any chance that your Samuel is this Samuel's son? Bill
