Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UkB.2ACI/4854.1.1 Message Board Post: It appears that J T (Joel) KING and W S (William) KING were indeed brothers who married two of the Marasky sisters. According to the 1860 District 22, Wilson Co, Tennessee census, William is the younger brother of Joel by two years. They are sons of Joel S KING and Martha A Johnson. They also appear as next door neighbors in the 1880 Precinct 1, Collin Co, Texas census. What were they doing in Collin County? Are there any descendants still in the area? When did Joel move to Indian Territory and why? Where did William S and family go when Joel moved to Indian territory? Try to solve mysteries. Thanks for your help. Johnny King

Surnames: KING, MOROSKI-MARASKY-MARASKEL-MARASKEY Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UkB.2ACI/4854.1 Message Board Post: Thanks to the wonderful Collin County genealogy site and especially the good work by Sue Patterson I found alternate spelling for Myersky-Moroski-Maraskel and also for the date of William Moroski's death 25 Feb 1866. He was apparently survived by his wife and four daughters. I found where Paulina Maraskel married J T KING 26 Nov 1879. I think J T KING was Joel T KING, my great grandfather. I would still like more information such as where was William MARASKI buried, was he indeed hung by thieves, where did he come from before Collin Co, were J T KING who married Paulina MARASKEL 26 Nov 1879 and W S KING who married Retta (Henrietta) MARASKY 18 Dec 1879 related?

Thieves came and hung this couple. Their daughter Polly (Pauline?) escaped into the night. Polly later married Joel T KING who was born in Tennessee in 1852. Joel and Polly had a son, Robert E Lee "Jack" KING and a daughter Lena. Joel later wound up in Oklahoma from 1895 through 1930 married to Arie O Cornell. Roy C KING, son of Robert E Lee "Jack" KING was born in McKinney about 1910. Does anyone have information on the MYERSKY family or the KING family? Where might I find info about the murder? Thank you. John King

During his entire service in the department, he never lost his rank. Death Broadcast. For the first time in the history of the department, the death of a member was broadcast over KVP to all officers on duty Friday night. Inspector J. M.

Surnames: Sirkel/Sirkle, Winters Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/UkB.2ACI/800.1.2.1.1 Message Board Post: Robert, thanks for the reply...I wish I could help you with JJ or Mary but my knowledge of the various Sirkel/Sirkle families is limited to that information posted on the internet and what little I have found at the Austin (TX) History Center. All this started when I began tracing my husband's maternal genealogy: Bertha Ada Winters' first husband was John Sirkel; they married 6-23-1917 in Austin, Travis Co., TX. One child, Lela Marie Sirkel (AKA Rich) was born in 1919, then Bertha and John divorced (still looking for the exact date/location). Now this was a complete surprise and that lead to the search for just who John Sirkel was and what happened to him. I believe his full name to be John Reed Sirkel/Sirkle, that he was born 11-29-1897>1899 in TX. There were several other Sirkels in Austin about the time of the marriage: Travis County Marriages - Austin History Center Archives: Year 1917: M.M. Sirkel (female) to H. H. Howell A.L. Sirkel (male) to Fannie Appling (both lived near Waco, buried Austin) John Sirkel (male) to Bertha Winters (my husband's GPs) Year 1920: J.R. Sirkel (male) to Lucile Ayers [Is this 2nd. marriage?] Year 1924: Bertha Sirkel (female) to D.C. Rich [2nd. marriage] John Reed Sirkel's WW1 Draft Card records: Birth Date - November 29, 1897 in TX Next of Kin - Wife, Bertha adr. Sour Lake, Hardin Co., TX Occu - None Physical - Med Height, Med Build, Eyes Blue, Hair Blnd Card Dated - Sept. 15, 1918, Kountze, TX NOTE: Suspect JR Sirkel was looking for work in the oil fields... Now this census leads me to believe Webster was his father: 1900 TX Census - Collin County Series: T623 Roll: 1621 Page: 209 B 156/157; Lns 79-85 Sirkle, Webster D, Head, W, M, April 1866, 34, M, 13, TX, SC, TN, Farmer [he's buried in Grandbury, TX) Sirkle, Alice L, Wife, W, F, July 1866, 33, M, 13, 6, 5, MS, AL, SC, Sirkle, Sarah, Dau, W, F, Aug 1888, 11, S, TX, TX, MS Sirkle, Alford L, Son, W, M, Dec 1890, 9, S, TX, TX, MS Sirkle, Bertie, Dau, W, F, Feb 1893, 7, S, TX, TX, MS Sirkle, James, Son, W, M, Aug 1895, 4, S, TX, TX, MS Sirkle, Johnnie, Son, W, M, Nov 1897, 2, S, TX, TX, MS [IS JOHNNIE our John Reed Sirkel/Sirkle?] I found John R Sirkel in the 1930 Census, Bell Co., Killeen, TX, living with Alfred L Sirkel family of 9 children! It shows John R. as "brother" and "divorced"! Alfred's occupation is dairyman on dairy farm. So the question is what happened to John after that? I have found a John R. Sirkel born in TX who died in Silverbow, Montana in 1949, who was the right age, but who knows? Please keep me in mind if your run across anyone or anything that may help me; I will do the same. Sincerely, Tommie Clayton PS - You mentioned one of your ancestors being full blooded Indian; I found where a Daniel Webster Sirkel filed a tribal application number 5118 with the 1896 Dawes Commission.
