Looking for Wesley Benjamin KING b.1820, known to be from Lancaster and York Co, PA. According to census, his parents (unknown) were born in PA. Wesley married 1846 prob in PA to Sarah Jane OLDHAM b.1824 in Lancaster Co, PA. Per census, her father was born in PA, and her mother was born in MD, both unknown.
