Origins of the Families of Okey L. King Jr.

.....I made this page many years ago. But, since that time, I have found so many families that it is not practical to list them as I have listed them below. Therefore this page is obsolete. To see my families and their origens, click on the page above. It contains a report of my families and their origens listed in a systematic way. However, the various related families listed below are still valid.

A Little Genealogy and Family History

NOTICE: SINCE, IN GENEALOGY, NOTHING IS WRITTEN IN STONE EXCEPT FOR NAMES AND DATES ON TOMBSTONES, THE MATERIAL ON THESE PAGES IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE. THEREFORE, DO NOT TREAT IT AS GOSPEL.

If you are interested in these families and in those listed below, you may feel free to email me at okeyl@earthlink.net or write me at #12 Amazing Grace Lane, Caldwell, WV..24925.

All of the following individuals are grandparents and all represent individual lines as the oldest individual of that line. Just recently, I found a site that had roughly an additional 30 family lines. Many of the names in these lines had sir or lord in front of them. I am not given to using these titles because we fought a war to get rid of the nobility in this country and I have no use for them. But, with tongue in cheek, I have added a few of these names. Also, never take any of these lines as gospel. Just the other day, I discarded ten lines, that were once listed below, because I found that they came from faulty information that I had aquired when I first began this page.

These letters beside the names denote the known places in Europe where the families came from:

E:.....England
I:.....Ireland
IE:....Ireland via England
W:.....Wales
G:.....Germany
S:.....Scotland
IG?:...Ireland or Germany
N......Netherlands
NOR....Norman
