Hi, I am trying to find the graves of William Edward ("Eddie") King (born 1850) and Margret J. Edwards King (born 1851). They were both born in Robeson County, NC, as were their older children. Later they moved to what became Dillon County, SC where the rest of their children were born. They have to be buried in either Robeson County, NC, Dillon County, SC, or Marion County, SC. Has anyone ever run across their graves? Thanks, Sharlotte
Sharlotte, When and where were they when you last find them in a record?

Hi, Sam, Thanks to you I know that William Edward ("Eddie) King (born 1850) and Margret J. Edwards (born 1851) were married October 20, 1870 in Robeson County, NC. Again, thanks to you, I know Eddie's parents were Stark King and Jane (maiden name unknown) King and that Margret's parents were Eli Edwards and Jane Phillips Edwards. Their surviving children, in birth order, were daughter Dannie King, daughter Mattie E. King, daughter Loula L. King Tolar, daughter Mary King, son Laurance A. King, son Lonzo ("Lonnie") King, daughter Nettie Donnie King Neely Riley, and son Ernest B. King (aka Ernest Robert Cain). There may also have been a daughter Pauline King Bailey. Eddie King was a farmer and a carpenter. In the 1880 census Eddie and Margret were living in Thompsons Township in Robeson County, NC. In the 1900 census Eddie was living as a boarder in Manning Township in Marion (now Dillon) County, SC, and Margret and some of the children were living in Hillsborough Township in Marion (now Dillon) County, SC. I cannot find them in any later census. Some of their children appear in the 1910 census. In 1910 my grandmother, Nettie Donnie King Neely Riley, was living in Dillon, SC with her brother Laurance King, his wife Addie Hamilton King, their daughter, and his parents-in-law. Both Nettie and Laurance worked at the Dillon Cotton Mill. Another brother Lonnie King and his wife Lizzie Huggins King also were living in Dillon, SC, and Lonnie also worked at the cotton mill. My grandmother met and married a co-worker at the cotton mill, Joseph Bowden Neely, Sr., from Horry County, SC. In the 1920 census Nettie King Neely and her husband were in Savannah, Chatham County, GA. Ernest B. King (as Ernest R. Cain) and his wife and family were in Kingstree, Williamsburg County, SC. In the 1930 census Nettie was widowed and still in Savannah. Laurance was in Weldon, Halifax County, NC, and Lonnie was in St. Paul's, Robeson County, NC. If I could find out the death dates of Eddie and Margret King and where they are buried, that would solve my biggest genealogy mystery.
