Although the King line traces to Francois de Coninck of Flanders who was born in the late 1500's and died after 1637, the majority of the book is about his 3rd great-grandson Isaac King, Mary Hankins and their posterity. Isaac (b. 1813) was born in Kent County, Delaware and moved to Ohio as a child. In 1835, Isaac married Mary in Fayette County, Ohio. They had 10 children from 1836-1859; their first two were born in Ohio, and the rest were born in Iowa. Includes Balke, Brown, Henderson, Henkle, Polen, Probst, Scott, Wisdom and related lines.

Vols. 8-10 of the 1965-1984 master cumulation constitute a title index.
