H1S1\ )R^ r OF Cl)e King 5^^^^il}-l/ Who vsettlecl in the woods, near where the vil- lage of Delta, (Ohio) now stances, in the year 1834. By Rev. William K'Og. Chatham. Ontauio. i820 to Ireland and purchased a farm near Newton- Limavady in the county of Londonderry, Ireland. The original farm was divided amf)ng three sons, Matthew the youngest, got one of those farms, which passed from him through three generations, to the subject of the l)resent memoir, who married Elizabeth Torrence, whose ancestors came from Scotland to Ireland about the same time the King family came from England. On that farm near Newton- Li mavady, the present King family were born, consisting of three sons and four daughters, namely, James, .John, Elizabeth, Jane, Mary, Catherine, and William. James and William received a liberal education, and John got the farm. He considered the home.stead too small for the family and he rent- V- ed a lar^c farm in Carry rniifldlc. wlicrc lie could keep two men and two span of Iku'hcs oniployod the year round. The family removed to the now farm in 1824. The farm was situated on the banl\s of Lou> to Cincinnati, and from thence down the St. Mary's river to Fort Wayne, and from that down the Mauniee to where the city of Toledo now stands. There was no city there at that time. A warehouse stood at Manhattan where a steamer called twice a week on her way from Cleveland to Detroit. There were no railways nor telegraphs in those days: all traveling was done by water '»nd by the old lumbering stage coach. From Manhattan William went to Cleveland and met the family who had come there from New York. Ttiey proceeded by boat to Manhattan at the mouth of theMaumee. where two lumber wagons were obtained to take the family and baggage to Providence, at the head of the rapids, where they expected to find a boat t(» take them up the river to Fort De- fiance: where William had looked out a place on the Maumee river oppo- site Fort Defiance, which he thought would suit the family for settle- ment. While waiting at Providence for a boat to go up the river. Mr. Manor went out with John to look at a tract of land in the "'six mile woods." John was so well pleased with the land and location that he concluded to go no further, but purchased a section of government land densely cov- ered with timber. That formed the original homestead on which the fam- ily settled in June 1834. The country was all new with only a few families who had settled there that spring. The following week after the family came into the woods a tornado swept through wJiere they had settled, and laid the tim- ber flat. It took a whole week to cut their way out to the oak openings. The family were mercifully preserved, a few trees had been cut where the shanty was erected and that saved them. Three of the daughters were married before the family left Ireland, namely: Elizabeth, Mary and Catherine. Catherine had emigrated with her husband to New Brunswick, Canada, two years before the family sailed for Am;'rica. The otluT two families nMuaiiicd behind but they all camo out afterwards and settled near tlie lioniestead. The parents lived after settling in the woods to a ri})" old age. and were buried in the family l)ur.v- ing ground on the farm. .lamei'i and William remained on the farm one year after they settled. William went south in Noveml)«'r. IS.T). and obtained a situation as Keetor of Matthew's Acadeniy in conneetion with Louisiana College : and James followed William south in the following year and got a situatio!i under him in Matthew's Academy ui«d n'lnainedat .lackson. Louisiana, tlllingdif- ferent situation > as teacher, mayor of t lie town, and Governor of the Lunatic Asylum : which last otlice lie held during tlie rebellicwi and only n^signed it a few years before his death which took phu'e at .lackson, Louisiana in August, 1875>. The following is a brief account of the King family, consist ing of three sons and four daughters. The list extends to tlie fourth generation. One hundred and sixty-eight were alive on tlie 22nd of .Jun<'. lHt)2. and seventy- four were jjresent at the reunion on tlie old lumiestead. on that day. ^ ^ ^ James )pair coiinly roads, which he did to the Hatisfaction of the public and the County CorniiiiHsioiicrs. who k^ivc him liit^h i cstiriionials for tidclity In the discharRc of public duty, when they heard he was alM)Ut to leave the country. llearlnKin 1830 of the richness and cheapness of land, l)oth in the United States and Canada, he coiu'luded to enilKrate with the family to America, three of the dauffhtcrs havin^f iM'en married and left the family. In tl»e spring of IHIi'l he sold th<' homestead and dis|M)sed of the rented farm, and on the r)th of June, 1H3;]. the family sailed for IMiiladelphla. where they arrived on the 12th of A ujfJist. after a voyai^e of sixty-ei^fht days. From Philadelphia the family proceeded to New York where they met William who had jfone before them, havinj? sailed from I^on(l()nderry the Hrst week in April, I8;];i. The family concluded to remain in New York until sprinj,'. In tin meantime William went west and spent the winter in the iieijfhl)orhood of Cleveland and in the sprinj-f he travelled thniu^h the western part of Ohio and eastern part of Indiana to Fort Wayne then down the Maumee to where Toledo now stands, and from that to Cleveland, where he joined the fami- ly who had come that far west from New York. The family then pro- ceeded by steamboat to Manhattan, at the mouth of the Maumee river, and from that place by wa>?ons to Providence at the head of the Maumee rapids, now (Jrand Rapids. William, who had been along the Maumee. had selected a farm oppf)- site Fort Detlance of 300 acres with 20 acres cleared which he thouj^ht would suit the family. Hut while waitinjf at Providence for a boat to f^o up the river to Fort Detlance. .lohn was persuaded by Mr. Manor to goaud see land in the "six miles woods." alxuit 12 miles north from the Maumee river. He was so pleased with the land and the situation that he con- cluded to jfo no further, but to purchase in the six m'le woods. lie went to the land oftice and secured 040 acres of heavy timbered land, the tim- ber consisting of oak, ash, hickory, maple, baswood, elm and black-walnut. The family settled on the new home on the 11th of June. 18,34. There being no house on the land a lumber shanty was hastily erected, with lumber brought from the river, and a few trees cut down around It to let the sun in. Thi.s precaution saved tlie family when the cyclone passed over the place the second week after the family settled In the woods. None of the family understood handling the axe, two men were hired to clear a patch large enough for a garden, and to put up a hewed log house. The first year only a few garden vegetables with a little corn and potatoes could be raised, but the second year ten acres were ready In the spring for a crop which was planted with corn and potatoes. The nearest market was Maumee, 20 miles distant. In 1K4() .lohii Kiii^ inarri<>(l Miss Hai'biu'ii SluKMiiakcr, of Muru'.v, Pa. liy hth. IHT),'}, and Thom- as W.. lM>rn March 4tli. 18.').').
