Hi Patricia.....I'm sorry that I don't have any information to help you, but I'm wondering if you have any knowledge of a Matilda (KING) connected to your family.
I have Matilda (KING) in our old Abbe/Abbey family bible. The edge of the page is torn away, so all I can read of her birth date is July 29, 17??
She married:
(1) Mr. ROGERS abt. 1802
(2) Joshua ABBE 1816. He was b. 1750/51 Windham, Windham Co., CT.
(3) Mr. BROTHERTON aft. April 1820
One of the children that she had with Joshua ABBE is my ancestor, Eli ABBE b. April 12, 1820.He married Rachel (FERGUSON) 1840.They lived in Upstate NY., and some of their descendants went to Van Buren Co., Michigan.
I do not know where Matilda (KING) ROGERS-ABBE-BROTHERTON died, but the date of death in the bible is Sept. 2, 1839.
The earliest ROGERS child that Matilda had was born in 1803, so I estimate that she was born about 1780.
If you run across anything for a Matilda (KING) I would very much appreciate hearing of it.
Good luck with the research.
