My Koenig / Kings travelled from Hamburg GY to Rockingham Co. VA in 1786 aboard the Patsy Rutledge. Johann Christian Koenig, b. 1754 in Bosenbachen GY was the son of Johann Jacob Koenig, who was born in Essweiler GY in 1720. Johann C. and his wife Anna Catherine Baum arrived in America and by 1802-1804 were in Perry County OH. Johann and Anna C. had many children, in cluding Peter, John Jr., Marillis, Catherine, George, Christian, Elizabeth (I am moving and this is all I can remember from memory right now, although I have the full list if anyone has a connection). My George died in Stoutsville OH c. 1862. Many of his children remained in the area, but several, including Adam, Henry, Sarah (m. Samuel Gehrett), L:ydia (m. Peter Mowery), George W., and David, moved to Wells County IN. George's widow, Catherine Moyer, came also, and is buried in WC in Stahl Cemetery. Adam had thirteen children, including Adam Jr., whoi married Lovesa Blair. Adam and Lovesa had four, two of which survived to adulthood. Their son Harry married Josie Burgess and they had six children, including my grandmother, Dayle King. She married Ray Rains and they had five children, including my mother Shirley, who married Ronald Love and had three children, of which I am one. Anyone who has any connections, I would love to hear from you and exchange information. Are there any more of us out there?
