VA: Michael King of Nansemond County VA d. abt 1700 in Albemarle County NC arrived from Norwich, England and served his indenture with John Wright. First land patent Sep 8, 1671. MO: Price King steamboat pilot on the Mississippi out of St. Charles. Transported by others who patented land in Nansemond: Alice King 1664 by Lt.
