King Family
« on: Wednesday 15 July 09 07:23 BST (UK) »
Hi
I would love some assistance with the King's. Joseph King died in 1879 and had been in Victoria Australia about 30 years. His death cert states that he was born in Mitchell Dean, Gloucester, about 1809 and his parents were John King, paper manufacturer, and Mary Mills. Any info on his parents, siblings  or migration would be appreciated
thank you in advance

Hi Lozza

You might well find this site interesting - you'll need to register, but it is free and has lots of transcribed records:

Have you tried Historical Directories to see if the father's business is listed?

Kind regards, Arranroots  ;)

thanks Arranroots
I'll have a look at that site. I have looked at a few finds but can find no trace of these people
Cheers
