This record suggests that William came from England I have included it below. I do not know when they got married or what her maiden name was. I have looked extensively at possible William King's through out Massachusetts and can rule out lots of families. > > There was a John King in Dedham during the Revolutionary War. He went on a secret mission with Paul Lewis (Solomon's father-in-law) to Rhode Island, but I find no further mention of John King in Dedham. > I am also looking at William's neighbors in Dover as possible relatives for Anna. I need to go back to Salt Lake. It is so hard to do this kind of research without easy access to that library. I went to Salt Lake early this year and have a lot of information from Wills and Deeds, but nothing so far that indicates Anna's maiden name. I'm still looking.

That is the meaning on the death certificate when it listed his burial place as 11 Charter Street Cemetery (Charter Street Cemetery is another name for the Copps Hill Burial Ground) up above the Old North Church. INTERNET Search Results 1805 Directory from ancestry.com William King Description: In the early 1800's, Boston, Massachusetts, was one of America's busiest and most vibrant commercial ports. It attracted visitors and brought in goods from other ports along the Atlantic coast as well as Europe and Asia. A center of banking, shipping, and manufacturing, many of America's first large businesses called Boston home. This directory of over 4,600 Boston inhabitants reveals a wide range of people and occupations, including bankers, attorneys, fruit vendors, soap boilers, shoe makers, innkeepers, sea captains, and grocery merchants. Copied directly from the 1805 Boston City Directory, this database includes first name, last name, occupation, and street address of many of Boston's residents and businesses. From the street addresses researchers can compare information in this database with census information of the same time period. Though this directory lists few women, many fathers and sons are listed together. This is especially evident when they shared both a business and an address. This database can be a valuable resource for researchers interested in learning more about their ancestors who, in 1805, lived in Boston, Massachusetts. Source Information: Jacobs, Steven, comp.

Note:8-31-93 The Soloman King, of Dover, Massachusetts is one of William's brothers. RESEARCH: TO DO Research the Coronors report...call the office and see where the records would be... CORONER'S INQUESTS Although coroners are often associated with murder, their records should not be overlooked. A coroner may have been called in to investigate deaths occurring under the following circumstances: accident, suicide, sudden death when in apparent good health, unattended by a licensed physician at time of death, suspicious or unusual causes, poisoning or adverse reaction to drugs or alcohol, disease constituting a threat to public health, employment related illness or injury, during medical diagnostic or therapeutic procedures, in any prison or penal institution or while in police custody, dead on arrival at hospital, unclaimed bodies, any body brought into a new medico-legal jurisdiction without proper medical certification, or any body to be cremated, dissected, or buried at sea. As with most records, the contents and condition of an individual's inquest file may vary greatly from county to county, and even from year to year. Many inquest files contain sworn statements made by family and friends of the deceased and any other witnesses present at the time of death or when a body was discovered. A 1935 Chicago inquest, for example, included a form requesting the full name of the deceased along with the person's address, age, sex, marital status, color, birthplace, length of residence in the United States, length of residence in the city, occupation, employer, past occupation, wages or salary due, amount of life insurance and to whom it was payable, value of personal and real estate property, level of education, number of dependents, and 10 questions regarding the decedent's physical and mental health at the time of death. Personnel in the county coroner's office should be able to provide information on the location of files. Selected Readings: Naanes, Ted, and Loretto Dennis Szucs. "Dead Men Do Tell Tales."

Her educational background led her to a career as a banker and a trainer with the Northern Trust Company in Chicago. In 1997, she left her position as an officer to devote more time to her three daughters and to pursue her interest in family history research. She has been actively involved in researching her own family history for 10 years and is also currently working on her husband's family.

Probate Records Vol 10 & 11 FHS# 0029164. I have Probate Records for Windsor County (1848) FHS# 0029179 on order. The Town Records show Daniel King as a Lister (I have no idea what a Lister is) on March 26, 1787. He received a tax abatement on Jan 4, 1790 (Daniel King 0..4..4..1). Daniel King was admitted as a member of the associated Religious Society by Benjaman Emmons on Oct 6, 1792. He received another tax abatement on March 11, 1793 (Daniel King 2/4). He was a highway surveyor for District No. 7 on March 11, 1794. He was selected as a Petit juror on March 11, 1795. After 1795, the next mention of Daniel King is on March 25, 1805 (Daniel King 3.. 3.. 1/2) Daniel King probably moved to Hartford around 1796 as there is a deed showing Daniel King selling property to Christopher Smith in 1796 and the deed mentions that Daniel King is from Hartford. Evidently though Daniel King still maintained some property in Pomfret in order to be included in the tax roles. The Town Records record information for Solomon King for the first time on Sept 9, 1805 with a notation of a new road being surveyed by his property. On March 11, 1806 there is a vote to annex Solomon King among others as a part of the North School District. (Pomfret is getting big at this time with new people coming in lots of roads being surveyed and some 17 school districts. Today, Pomfret consists of three buildings.) In March of 1807, Solomon is listed among others as having three children in the Northern School District. On March 17, 1808, Solomon King has 4 children in the Northern School District, Joseph Spear has 3 and William King has 1 child in the school district. March 13, 1810, Solomon King is selected as a highway surveyor for the 14th district. On March 13, 1821, Solomon signed a petition to create a new road near his home. Solomon King has 7 children in school in March 1822, 1823 and 1824. In 1837 Solomon has only one child left in school. I did not find any other references to Solomon's participation in civic duties. The Town Records have a very interesting feature. Not all of the town clerks were diligent, but some of them listed all of the parents for each school district and the number of children they had enrolled for each year. There are huge gaps in these records but there are blocks of years where it is possible to track citizens. For instance, in 1808 Solomon King, Joseph Spear and William King all have children in school in Pomfret. There are no more records until 1822 where Solomon is still listed, but Joseph Spear is not and it now shows Lucy not William as having children in school. This must have been the time that Joseph moved to Sharon as the deeds indicate. William must have died before 1822. The Deeds show: Daniel King and Samuel Marsh both of Hartford selling 3 acres to Benjamin Gould for 9 pounds on 22 Oct 1796. Signed by Samuel Marsh and Daniel King and witnessed by George Gould and Samuel Udall, Jr. Daniel King of Pomfret selling 90 acres in the third division lot #45 to Christopher Smith for 120 pounds on March 12, 1796. Signed by Daniel King and witnessed by Samuel Udell and John Crowley. Christopher Smith of Pomfret sells to William King of Boston two acres for 28 dollars on Dec 11th 1801.

He would remain in Pomfret for the rest of his life and is buried in the cemetery north of town. Pomfret was the home of the King family for nearly the next hundred years. Kings can be found in Pomfret in every census until the 1900 census when the last remnants of the King family are gone from Pomfret. Windsor, a county in the S. E. central part of Vermont, has an area of about 1040 square miles. It is bounded on the E. by the Connecticut, and is traversed by the White river and other smaller streams, which furnish abundant waterpower. The surface is generally uneven, and in the W. part mountainous. Pomfret was chartered by Governor Benning Wentworth on July 8, 1761, to Isaac Dana and his associates, of whom there were sixty-seven. The first proprietors£ meeting was held in Pomfret, Connecticut (this town being named after the one in Connecticut) on September 7, 1761. The first town meeting held in Pomfret, Vermont was in March of 1773. John Winchester Dana was chosen clerk and moderator and supervisor. At one time Pomfret was a bustling community with hundreds of residents; today there are only three buildings that make up the town, the Library and the Town Clerk£s office being the most prominent.
