William King b. 1809 Ottery St. Mary, Devon & wife Sarah King b. 1811 (nee Higgins) are at 6 Sand Hill, Middle Claydon, Buck in 1851 with children: Charles b. 1834 Joseph b. 1838 Mary b. 1839 John b. 1840 Maria b. 1847 and visitors/relatives/sisters of Sarah ?? Hannah & Elizabeth.
In 1881, William King still @ 6 Sand Hill but with wife Prudence, b. 1806 in Burton Warwickshire. And dau Maria (BLAKE) is widowed and there with her 3 children: James William Blake, Henry Spencer Blake and Annie Rebekah Blake
Is there any way to confirm that Sarah died between 1851 and 1881 and William remarried to Prudence.
Have found record of Sarah Higgins m. William King Sept. 16, 1833 St. Mary, Aylesbury, Buck. Only Sarah & William King marriage found on IGI so fairly certain this is correct.
Also would like to find find Sarah Higgens birth record for approx. 1811 in maybe Burton, Dorset? 1851 Census transcription may have garbled this to "Burtendaset".
Additionally, if any recognizes this as a connection to their family, son Charles m. Rhoda Smith and immigrated to US (Kansas) in 1870 w/ children Harry and Fannie.
Thanks for any assistance or infirmation. Kathy
