Hello Ellie,

It is actually my husband's family on his mothers side.  I do have good
information on Solomon and some on his father William, but I am trying 
to
trace William and Anna back.  Below is the information I have on 
Solomon, it
comes from three sources; Pomfret Vermont vital records found in a book
edited by Henry Vail, and the Corbin Manuscript; birth and death
certificates; and vital records from Dedham.  I will also send you the
information I have on William and Anna.

Notes for Solomon KING
Solomon was born in Massachusetts and spent the majority of this 
boyhood
there.   He can be found in the 1800 census in Dover, Massachusetts 
with his
wife and his first-born daughter, but by 1810 he moved with his family 
to
Pomfret, Windsor County, Vermont where he was a farmer and machinist.  
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.
