that may be him!!

maybe he was sick and when he said farni or ferney or farnee or forney

maybe how he said it being sick and how it sounded made person who writes names

think that it was spelled vorney

so maybe jacob's accent plus his sickness might have contributed to this spelling

from how it sounded when he said it

and I do think he was sick on the st. andrew ship

some of my own research

and some from online

honestly I just was curious who
Ephraim Malone Johnson's
1st Wife / my 5th great grandmother who was she

and I saw she was a King (surname) and I was like aw cool!

I gotta try and trace this line!

hello

thank you in advance

if you can provide any help at all

any and all help is for sure appreciated

thank you

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

my possible King (surname) ancestry was at least from South Carolina, and possibly Georgia,

and maybe even as far back as Devon England, possibly from Alnwick Castle,

or Castle Alnwick, Devon, England

or Dodebrook, Devon / Devonshire, England

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

anyways

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

my 5th Great Grandmother is Rebecca King, 1st wife of Ephraim Malone Johnson.

their son, Abraham Malone Johnson, and his wife Thankful Whiteside Johnson,
founded the community of St. Elmo in Chattanooga Tennessee

(they are my 4th Great Grandparents on my Grandfather's (my Mom's Father) Johnson side


https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/7367797/abraham-malone-johnson


so she was part of the Johnson family South Carolina,

(maybe she married Ephraim in South Carolina?)

and later of the Johnson family of Chattanooga Tennessee
(or maybe a past (gone from this earth) member of that family by then)

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

anyways

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

Rebecca King was born in Pendleton, Oconee, South Carolina, USA on 21 NOV 1806
to Robert King and Frances Tilly.

Rebecca King married Ephraim Malone Johnson and had 7 children.

She passed away on 9 Apr 1837 in Gainesville, Hall, Georgia, USA.

I was able to trace back all the way to a Henry de Percy Kynge

(\/ is this him too? \/)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Percy,_1st_Earl_of_Northumberland

(/\ is this him too? /\)

but I have no idea if it is right

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

and these are two crests for the devon king family possibly
but which one is mine?

(I don't know if it is my ancestors or just family connections to the older "Kynge" line)

~~~~~~~~-------------------------------

my last name / surname is Harris, not King, just to let you know

and I am from the state of North Carolina United States of America

and the King surname is from my Grandfather on my Mother's side

so she is my 5th Great Grandmother

my Mother's 4th Great Grandmother

and my Grandfather's 3rd Great Grandmother

and so on and so on
