This is lengthy, I'm sorry, but only way to explain and perhaps relate to any of you. I'm interested in the above families. They traveled with Daniel Boone from VA > KY > MO. Fayette was one of the many stops for these families. Hoping someone might have more information, possibly a relative or two. I have wondered about several things. Like getting copies of marriages from county/state books, copies of census records that I don't have. Church Records? Birth Records? Just a few heavy duty items that I can't get here in Indiana and on the Web. Would any of you suggest the counties or state records(which is best). Also, Cemeteries? Anything is appreciated. I have found most of the census from Ancestry.com - however I'm sure there is more! Related names (women's maiden names): 1. Elizabeth Betsy McKinney(b. 1870 in KY but married to John King on MO-brother is John McKinney of Staunton, VA per KY Biographies ), 2. Mary Jane Spires(b. 1815 in MO & married to Harrison King on 25 JUL, 1833 in Vernon Co.{actually Warren Co), MO - daughter of Greenberry B Spires & Elizabeth (Nancy) Hall Welch, 3a. Lucy Virginia(Jennie) Spiers(b. 1853, MAR in MO & married to David King on Feb, 1870 in Warren Co., MO - daughter of ?) 3b. Margaret Blandine White(b. Abbt. 1814 in Wright City, Warren Co., MO & married Harrison King 14 JAN, 1852 in Vernon Co.(actually Warren Co.) MO - daughter of ?. 3c. Henrietta Tucker (b.? married Harrison King on 6 OCT, 1864 in St. Louis, MO 0- daughter of ?). 4. Then my line: Elliott Pringle King came to Indiana and married. However his two brothers were in MO. Also other names: Bryans, Boones, Pratt, Welch, Bowen families. Years that I'm looking at and locations are: Births 1790; About -Virginia - John King 1812, 14 OCT: St Charles Co., MO - Harrison King 1846, March - Wright City Hickory Grove Twp., Warren Co., MO-David King 1876, Sep. - Wright City, Hickory Grove Twp., Warren Co., MO-Elliot Pringle King Census: 1900 Census: Prairie Township, Montgomery Co., MO 1880 Census: Hickory Grove Township, Wright City, Warren Co., MO 1870 Census: Hickory Grove Township, Wright City, Warren Co., MO 1860 Census: Post Office: Pitts, Hickory Grove Twp., Warren Co., MO 1850 Census: District 99, Warren Co., MO 1840 Census: Charette Township, Warren Co., MO 1830 Census: Charette Township, Montgomery Co., MO 1820 Census: 1817 Census Enumeration: Femme Osage Township, St. Charles Co., MO John King and Elizabeth Betsy McKinney married and settled in Marthasville, MO (now Warren Co.)- per her brothers KY Biography. The McKinney's tie into the Boone family and had traveled from VA>KY>MO. Tax Lists: 1817, Montgomery Co., MO - Missouri Pioneers Volume 8(where is the book located?) 1819, same location as above Whew!!! I do have more, but thought this was enough for now. I'm hoping to hear from all of you and looking forward to possibly meeting with you too? I will be posting this to several sites for possible more input. Have been in contact (via e-mail) with William L. King, Betty Brooks and other side line families(ie.. Spires & Bowen). Thanks for reading this!
