John King b 1849 Lanarkshire Scotland
« on: Wednesday 14 August 13 10:55 BST (UK) »
John left Scotland  around 1864.  His parents were George King and Isabella Robertson the family settled in Pennsylvania

I think I found John there on 1880 census  with a wife Ella also born in Scotland  daughter
Margaret aged 3 and son George aged 1 but then the trail goes cold.

Any help much appreciated.

Sorry Sandra  William McNeish Allen who married Elizabeth King was born in Lanarkshire -- same as John King I keep forgetting this as his father George King was born in East Lothian

On the 1870 marriage in Trumbull Ohio George King father gave permission for John's marriage
and he had to sign that John and Ellen were no more than 2nd cousins.

What do you think am I beginning to crack it ?
