Do you have additional information on your family line into the 1790 era? Moses and his wife are found in the King Cemetery just south of Ithaca. I believe this line is connected to a Jones line in Somerset county, NJ ca 1781 from correspondence where Moses identifies himself as a cousin of Mary Jones, wife of Francis King.
