I recently discovered this deed information about the King family of Orange County, North Carolina. It appears that the family may have originated in Lunenburg County, Virginia. The transaction took place between the brother of my ancestor, Joseph Royster, and the King family who had already settled into Orange County, North Carolina. Hope this helps someone John Fox Winston-Salem, NC A deed dated 29 October 1759 and recorded 6 May 1760 in Lunenburg County, Virginia states, " John King and Hannah, his wife, or Orange County, North Carolina to Jacob Royster of Lunenburg County....cons. 100 pounds.....238 acres on both sides of Grassy Creek and 385 acres adjoining "(Deed Book 6:67)
