Marguerite, thanks for the Pickett genealogy. My direct ancestor is Judith King, sister of Selah. Judith was widowed before she arrived in Franklin Co. in 1807(married name Perry) with brothers Moses, Nathan, and John King. We have always thought that Pickets and Kings came together from SC. She soon married Bartlett Ford. After he died, we think she married a Mr.Watson. She outlived all of her husbands, dying "on her property" in Franklin Co. I have looked in vain for any records of her or of where she was buried. I have followed the Kings,Longs, and Pickets to Catahoula Parish. Some went out to Texas. Have you ever run across Judith King Perry Ford Watson? I descend from Judith's daughter Harriet Perry who married Zachariah T.Kirkland Would appreciate anything which anyone may be able to offer. Also, we have traced the Kings back to Michael who was born in England. Do you have anything on that line? Thought we might share info.
