Source notes
- No Colin C. King, Arguile King, nor George W. King ( or name variants) found in the 1820 census. Their father John King not found. John W. King found in 1820, but by 1830 his age brackets rule him out as a match (1820 age brackets too broad to judge). In 1840, a male age 80-90 is living in Colin C. King household.
- The 1830 census lists 2 females under age 5; it is not known whether the older or younger was Elizabeth Hutchinson King.
Conjecture
The script writing in the will of John I. King does not make it certain whether his initial is "I", or "J". The initial differs from the "J" used in his first name, but may differ because letters follow the "J" in "John". This problem of identically written "J"s and "I"s from this era is ubiquitous. His name may be John J. King.
