Hi Stacey,
I hope this works , try ....
http://www.munpl.org/default.asp?PageIndex=800 Look at the deeds from
1850, it lists a Susanna as his wife !! The last name is different from the
one you are seeking. Also his death from the Meeks funeral home is available
, there is an L.D. King listed for paying a relative. You can print these
off .
I found some info for you Here goes ; JOHN H. KING married Mary
Parsons on Sept 11, 1863 in Delaware co Ind ; index to marriage records 1827
- 1920 ; W.P.A. original Record located ; county clerks office ; book C-4 ;
os page 286
JOHN W. KING married Susannah Stiffer on Dec 21, 1842 ; Delaware co IND ;
same as above for location of record except BOOK C-2 ; O.S. page 55 note
the "W" not "H" . I see there was a John West King & a John W .
King . You
can see that on the Muncie Library listing I sent above.
I will do a bit more research for you , have a vet appointment for my
dog.
Later,
Julie B in NC

I am hoping someone who lives in the area can help me with one or dare I
hope? both requests for this individual. First, a death record look up for a
JOHN H. KING JOHN H. KING
born: 03 October 1813 Pennsylvania (possible Franklin Co)
died: 05 December 1899 Muncie, Delaware Co. Indiana
At the time of his death, he was married to his 2nd wife, MARY PARSONS. I
have him last on the 1880 census placing him in Delaware County. Since the
1890 Census is fragmented at best and John has died by the 1900? Thats as
good as I've been able to do. I am trying hard to locate information on who
his parents might have been. I haven't been able to locate info on his
first wife, (My line) Susanna Stiffler/Steffler...like a definate birthdate
or death date...though she died in Delaware County, I haven't been able to
find a death record or her and John's marriage record that MIGHT provide
some clues as to her or John King's parents. I have John H. King's
obituary/death notice and a copy of his second marriage's record...again, no
luck. Hoping someone might be doing research in the area (Muncie/Delaware
County) and perhaps help with the death record look up...I will, of course,
re-imburse any copy expenses and?
2nd request is for someone who again, by luck or chance...might live near
the cemetery where John H. King and several other family members are buried.
It is called CLEVANGER cemetery but is also known as SWINGLEY Suppose to be
located about 1 1/2 miles southeast of Windsor off of Base road? In Stoney
Creek Township. I am interested in locating either a caretaker who might
have burial records or better yet? someone who could take photo's of the
headstones (if any left) I had planned a trip to Indiana to do all this
myself but a health issue now prevents it. I appreciate anyone who'd be
inclined or takes an interest. Stacey
