Hello Mae,

May I check with you the blanks that need to be filled ?
Dates of birth of the parents - William and Alice
Exact birth date of Albert, Anna Maria, Alice and Isobel.
Check if there was a son William and if so exact date of his birth.
Since they lived all their lives in Portadown they were probably regular attenders at their local church.
It should be easy to establish which church they attended if you know which faith was followed by the family.

Are there any other blanks that need to be filled ?

Best Wishes,   Christopher

christopher hi.  Most of the information I,ve given you is all I know about the king family. The address at the birth of william king (february 9,1884) was  20 william street and the address for the date of death for the three sisters was 107 thomas street, both addresses in portadown,northern ireland.1965. william king was a church of england minister and practised in newcastle area,northumberland,I think he was another son. William king senior was a carpenter,his wife alice courtney were both protestants.I believe their church was st.saviors,portadown and they # sisters are buried at the dobbin cemetery.They could have been members at st. marks,portadown but they don,t have a cemetery there.  I found a date for an isabella king,november 7, 1879 portadown northern ireland her parents are listed as william king and alice courtney. this might be the proper date for her birth.  At the time of the sisters funeralsa reverend thomas mcgonicle looked after  Isobel and anna maria king in 1964 and 1965 and alic in 1965 was looked after by reverend  m.h.g. mayes.    hopefully this will help.  A  1914  record for albert king says his father is at 20 william street portadown northern ireland. Hopefully this mixture of information will help.  Thankyou christopher
