    3. Hi I have posted my line but no answers. As far as I know my line is German and not English. Jacob and Becky King (maybe Koenig) with son Philip came to the U.S. in 1832 or 33. Philip married Eliza Baker in Wells county Indiana. Her 1st marriage was to Peter Baker and had a son Henry born in 1847 Married Philip in 1851. They had 4 children, Rebecca, Martin (my ggrandfther) Matilda nd Valentine. All the children were married except Valentine when they moved to Kansas in 1877. Martin married Samantha Kreigh in 1875 They were cousins. Children were Perry born in Indiana Ada, Leslie, Goldie and my grandfather Jacob Russll King who were all born in LaMar Kansas Philip and Eliza had a farm near Delphas Kansas In 1894 they all moved back to Michigan. Just across the Indiana State line. After their return they mostly lived the rest of their lives in Michigan. I wonder if anyone can tell m where they came from and where they lived upon arriving in the US. It's too bad we don't ask more questions when there is someone alive to answer them. I hope someone can help me. Thanks----Sonya
