b. 1797, d. 25 March 1864
| Birth* | 1797 | Margaret M. Johnson was born about 1797 in Kentucky.1 |
| Marriage* | 17 March 1814 | She married John Samuel King, son of Henry Harrison King Jr. and Molly F. Killian, on 17 March 1814 in Bullitt County, Kentucky.1,2 |
| Census US 1850* | 19 August 1850 | Margaret and John King were enumerated on the 1850 census taken on 19 August 1850 in Patoka, Crawford County, Indiana. John was 56 years of age and a farmer, and Margaret was 45 years of age. John was able to both read and write, and Margaret was able to read only. The couple's two youngest children, Henry and Margaret, were enumerated with their parents in 1850. Both were recorded as 21 years of age, although Henry was likely age 23, and he worked as a farmer with his father. Both were also able to read, although not to write. Also enumerated in the King household in 1850 were three of the couple's grandchildren, Daniel, Margaret and John King, the three oldest children of their deceased son, William. Margaret was recorded as 12 years old, Daniel as age 11 and John as age 9. Our research indicates, however that the children's ages would more likely have been Daniel 13, Margaret 12 and John 11. All three had attended school within the census year. The children's sister, Nancy Ann, was enumerated in 1850 with their mother and stepfather, Catherine and Walker Lankford in Dubois County, Indiana.3 |

Note: It is wonderful to have found this online posting and we are very grateful to other researchers who share their treasures. We have happily included the document's information and are hoping that, during our verification process, we will be able to confirm its validity. The online posting was a copy of a typed (typewriter) document which was not dated and is reported to be page one of a longer document. It appears to this researcher that the main author, J. W.
