2. | John King was born in 1787 (son of John King and Rachel Margaret Young); died in 1864. Notes:
Later in John Jr.'s life, the family story goes that Peter Claywell gave them the land which was his RW land grant, in what is now Williamsport, TN. At the time the NC state line was a bit west of there. I have not been able to find the original Land Grant and family lore sometimes says it was Peter Claywell's RW land grant and others say it was John King's RW land grant. Peter did fight a battle in the RW, John (Sr.) did not.
