1 NOTE The following information was from memories of my father. Grandma & 
2 CONT Grandpa raised eleven kids counting me so they always had a large garden. 
2 CONT It was over an acre. If Henry Fields Seed Co. had it in his catalog they 
2 CONT had it in their garden. Grandma canned a lot to get us through till 
2 CONT spring. Things that would spoil we kept in the cellar everyday therefore 
2 CONT we had to go to town each day and get a new block of ice. Grandma was 
2 CONT always kept busy at harvest time because neibors would help each other 
2 CONT bring in the crops. Sometimes there were 8-10 men there at noon and her 
2 CONT and the girls would cook the noon meal for the workers. She would make 
2 CONT things like lemonade and the smaller boys, like myself, would take jugs 
2 CONT back and forth to the workers. Our laudry was done by hand until I was 
2 CONT about five or six when electricity came through the area. After that 
2 CONT Grandma got a washing machine but we still heated water in a kettle over a 
2 CONT fire in the yard when the weather was hot and on the wood stove when the 
2 CONT it was cold. In the old washing machines the water was not heated and the 
2 CONT washing machine was rather primitive. The ironing was done by heating 
2 CONT irons on the stove until we got electricity. Each house got one small 
2 CONT appliance when the electricity was hooked up. Grandma got an iron from 
2 CONT them. The neibors kids would come over in the fall of the year and Grandma 
2 CONT and the girls would roast peanuts in the stove and make popcorn. Grandma 
2 CONT was too busy raising a family to do anything outside the home unless It 
2 CONT related to church. I remember them coming to my plays my senior year. They 
2 CONT did not go to the ballgames at school as they had church on Wednesdays, 
2 CONT Saturdays evenings, and twice on Sunday. On Memorial Day we always went to 
2 CONT the cemetarys and Grandma put a single red rose on every grave of a 
2 CONT relative Grandma was very particular that she found each grave and placed 
2 CONT a rose on it. I would pick the roses for them in later years when I would 
2 CONT take them there. I can remember Grandad talking about driving a wagon with 
2 CONT a casket in it to the grave site on a day after it had just rained and was 
2 CONT very muddy and how no one would ride with him because they were afraid the 
2 CONT wagon would turn over and dump the casket. Grandma sent me to music 
2 CONT lessons when we went to Greenfield on Saturday, which we usually did 
2 CONT because they had a clothing store. She sent me until I could play church 
2 CONT music to fill in when the piano player was not there.

1 NOTE Reverend David Lamb King, as he was known throughout his adult life, lived 
2 CONT and worked on his father's farm near New Castle, Pennsylvania until the 
2 CONT age of 17 at which time he secured a permit to teach in the local 
2 CONT elementary school. To better qualify himself for this chosen occupation, 
2 CONT David attended Mercer Academy,Mercer, Pennsylvania and Allegheny College 
2 CONT in Meadville,Pennsylvania. Religion became a focal point in this young 
2 CONT King's life when he joined the Methodist Church in New Castle, 
2 CONT Pennsylvania in 1834 as an 18 year old youth. The year 1836 finds David 
2 CONT King, Missionary-teacher, and the family of John Holton, farmer, heading 
2 CONT for the Illinois Methodist Conference, more specifically,Red 
2 CONT Rock,Minnesota, then in Wisconsin Territory. A severe winter closed the 
2 CONT rivers to navigation and the party wintered at Praire du Chien, Wisconsin. 
2 CONT This small band of missionary frontiersman which now included Reverend 
2 CONT Alfred Brunson of Pittsburg and a former slave , James Thompson, those 
2 CONT freedom had been purchased for $1200. by Reverend Brunson, reached Fort 
2 CONT Snelling(Minnesota) Wisconsin Territory in June 1837. On the first Sabbath 
2 CONT after arrival Reverend David Lamb King preached to the garrison stationed 
2 CONT here. But let recorded history tell of this sermon. Reverend King's text 
2 CONT for the day was Ephesians 5:14:
2 CONT 
2 CONT " Awake thou that sleepest and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give 
2 CONT thee light."
2 CONT 
2 CONT The words were fervently eloquent and the style exceeding dramatic, in 
2 CONT fact he became so very forceful that the pulpit collapsed under his 
2 CONT fist-pounding which was accompanied by the soldiers' laughter. All of this 
2 CONT and young King had not yet reached his majority of 21 years. A Swedish 
2 CONT soldier in the U.S. Army, Jacob Falhstrom, was among those in attendance 
2 CONT and afterwards told Reverend King that he now wished to join the 
2 CONT missionary group, thus becoming the young minister's first convert. While 
2 CONT serving at Fort Snelling Mr. King helped establish the Kaposia Mission and 
2 CONT also a farm for Indians in the area. The First Methodist Church of South 
2 CONT St. Paul now stands near the land of the first mission and a monument 
2 CONT commemorating this early outpost is located there with David's name 
2 CONT thereon also with the other three members of the original group. In 1956 
2 CONT the Minnesota Methodist Conference meeting in Minneapolis celebrated its 
2 CONT 100th year of Methodism. A pageant, "When the North Star Calls," was 
2 CONT presented depicting among its many scenes the story of David King and 
2 CONT fellow members of that pioneer group.  ("Christian Advocate," 19 Apr 
2 CONT 1956,Dr. T. Otto Mall editor.) In 1843 Reverend King withdrew from the 
2 CONT mission field and settled in Butler's Point, Vermillion County, Illinois 
2 CONT to teach school and preach. To be seen in his school ledger, still intact 
2 CONT and legible, are the names of his many students including his future wife 
2 CONT , Mary Jane Whitcomb and several of her brothers. David and Mary Jane were 
2 CONT married in the home of her parents Francis and Jane (Evans) Whitcomb. This 
2 CONT house was still standing in 1975. David , wife Mary, and children 
2 CONT Elizabeth and William ,accompanied  by Mary's parents, the Francis 
2 CONT Whitcomb Family, moved to Mclean County, Illinois in 1847. In addition to 
2 CONT farming , teaching, and  preaching, Mr. King established a U.S. post 
2 CONT office at Padua on May 13, 1852. David resigned his postmastership Sept 28 
2 CONT 1854 and with his family started for Minnesota. The winter of 1854-55 was 
2 CONT spent at the home of his brother William in Jackson County, Iowa.  However 
2 CONT before wintered closed in, David, accompanied by several nephews and a 
2 CONT brother in-law journeyed north to Kalmar Township, Olmsted County, 
2 CONT Minnesota Territory to lay claim to land and to build a cabin for future 
2 CONT use. On May 2 1855, the King Family in a wagon train made up of some 20 
2 CONT people , principally relatives, four ox-drawn wagons, and other livestock 
2 CONT headed north across Iowa to Kalmar Township,Minnesota Territory. The new 
2 CONT home, the cabin built the previous year, was located about 3 miles north 
2 CONT of present -day Byron on the banks of the Zumbro River. To make room for 
2 CONT an ever increasing family, a two story house was built on the site in 
2 CONT 1859. Although this house does not now exist , the basement and old well 
2 CONT are easily discernible. Reverend King's ambitions and civic activities did 
2 CONT not diminish in this new land as evidenced by the following: first 
2 CONT ordination papers filed in Olmsted County; first methodist sermon, October 
2 CONT 1854; first religious service in Mantorville, Dodge County, Minnesota; 
2 CONT member of the first Minnesota State Legislature in 1859; chairman of the 
2 CONT first board of Kalmar Township supervisers and served three additional 
2 CONT years as a member; township treasurer two years; twice Justice of th 
2 CONT Peace. Although Reverend King was never a full time minister due to a 
2 CONT voice problem, he continued to preach and minister to people's wants 
2 CONT through all his years in Kalmar Township. David was also chosen as a 
2 CONT member of the Commission that drafted the Constitution for the State of 
2 CONT Minnesota. The Constitution was signed August 29, 1857. When the great 
2 CONT Master called in 1898, David Lamb King was laid to rest beside his wife 
2 CONT Mary Jane in the Byron, Minnesota cemetery. This buriel site is a fitting 
2 CONT climax to the life of this noted passionate man as he served as chairman 
2 CONT of the first Byron cemetery board when the cemetery came into being in 
2 CONT 1867.

1 NOTE He left his home in Grafton County, New Hampshire, when twenty-eight years 
2 CONT old, and with his brother, Samuel, started West, living about a year in 
2 CONT New York(Lyons). His brother married, did not go further west just then, 
2 CONT but Francis pushed on to Illinois, settling near Terre Haute, Indiana. For 
2 CONT fifty years he was lost to his relatives who supposed him killed by 
2 CONT Indians. In 1819 he located near Danville, Vermillion County, Illinois, 
2 CONT where he lived for several years before moving to Catlin Township. He took 
2 CONT up the farm which Richard Jones lived on. He worked this farm for several 
2 CONT years and then moved to Mclean County, and lived on the Kickapoo, seven 
2 CONT miles this side of Bloomington, where some of his family resided. He was 
2 CONT one of the discovers and proprietors of the salt works near Danville, and 
2 CONT in 1821 the well yielding the salt water, had reached a depth of 490 feet, 
2 CONT a work of no little magnitude in that day. In 1826 he sold his interest in 
2 CONT those works, and built a mill on the north fork of the Vermillion River. 
2 CONT Two years later he sold out, and bought a farm at Bultler's Point. Which 
2 CONT is the home where his daughter Mary Jane and David Lamb King were married 
2 CONT in 1844. This house I believe is still standing and still serves as a 
2 CONT home. The year Francis moved to Mclean County was 1847. He sold his farm 
2 CONT at Butler's Point in 1849 for $3000.00 in gold. On one occasion he was a 
2 CONT participant in one of the races to the government land office which 
2 CONT frequently created much excitement among the early settlers of Illinois. 
2 CONT The land office was a distance of seventy miles, and the race was made in 
2 CONT two-horse wagons. He won the race and secured 338 acres of valuable land 
2 CONT at $1.25 per acre, a property afterwards worth $60 or more per acre. In 
2 CONT 1835 he united with the Methodist Church, and till his death was true to 
2 CONT Christianity and to the church of his choice. His honesty of purpose was 
2 CONT his chief characteristic and no one could doubt his sincerity. In all his 
2 CONT dealings with his fellow men he was just. He was a man of sound judgement, 
2 CONT and was sought after as an arbitrator of disputes. He was a lover of 
2 CONT peace, but a very brave man. He was temperate in habits and highly 
2 CONT esteemed by all who knew him. He died January 15, 1872 in Mclean County.

2 CONT road #45 about 500 yards east of the intersection of this road with the 
2 CONT local access road to Lindon Hall a stone house is on the north side. The 
2 CONT 1874 history of the King family says that because his parents died when he 
2 CONT was young he was brought up by an uncle who would not allow him to speak 
2 CONT dutch and thus the mother language was lost. William King's family 
2 CONT attended Old Drawyer's Church which was founded by his grandfather Francis 
2 CONT King and his wifes grandfather Hans along with two others. William King 
2 CONT was a man of wealth who owned slaves. All three early histories of the

2 CONT Revolutionary War. William King moved to Penns Valley about four miles 
2 CONT west of Potters Fort, Centre County Penn. about the times of the Indian 
2 CONT War. He bought land and was among the very first white settlers there. He 
2 CONT was one of the settlers who built Potters Fort, and for a time had to

1 NOTE Obadiah and John M. Smith from Howard County, Missouri settled along Cedar 
2 CONT Creek in 1837. Obadiah's wife and two sons accompanied him his first trip. 
2 CONT One of whom is my Great-Great-Great Grandfather Reubin. Obadiah was a 
2 CONT prosperous farmer, dedicated preacher, and Political Leader. He and his 
2 CONT five sons were all killed in the Civil War. Like those other hardy 
2 CONT immigrants who were coming here at that time, he came in one of those 
2 CONT heavy pioneer wgons, drawn by several yokes of oxen, and loaded with 
2 CONT various tools and supplies which are necessary for settling in a 
2 CONT wilderness country. Obidiah's wife Catherine Lucinda Hartman was with him. 
2 CONT Lucinda as she went by was born in North Carolina, and had migrated with 
2 CONT her parents to Missouri some years before. Obadiah was also from the 
2 CONT South, his parents having come out from Kentucky while he was yet a young 
2 CONT man. He arrived by keel boat at Fort Hempstead on July 1809 with his 
2 CONT parents and three other brothers and sisters. His parents were Andrew 
2 CONT Smith born 1779 in North Carolina and Sara Scriviner born 1770 in 
2 CONT Kentucky.  Obadiah and Lucinda were married in 1832, and when they 
2 CONT migrated to Cedar County they had two small children Reubin who was four 
2 CONT and John who was two. Obadiah was not as robust as his brother , but was 
2 CONT by no means a physical weakling. He had very little schooling, but had an 
2 CONT interest in intellectual pursuits, particularly in such things as reading 
2 CONT and understanding the teachings of the Holy Bible. When the Smith brothers 
2 CONT arrived in Cedar County territory many other settlers were already their. 
2 CONT There was an abundance of land left, however, and Obadiah settled on the 
2 CONT west side of Cedar Creek, on a part of section 3, Township 35, and Range 
2 CONT 27. He evidently knew land values, since his farm later became quite 
2 CONT productive and enabled him to aquire the entire section. Obadiah Smith was 
2 CONT only 32 years of age when he arrived in Cedar County, but he had 
2 CONT experienced many of the vicissitudes of Life.  He had been an officer in 
2 CONT the Black Hawk War, having served with General Claiborne and Jackson. He 
2 CONT not only had worldly experience, but religious faith, and a passion for 
2 CONT living a righteous life in accordance with his convictions. Even before he 
2 CONT completed his own living quarters he began promotional activities for the 
2 CONT establishment of a church in the new community. The first church in the 
2 CONT territory which later became Cedar County was organized in the summer of 
2 CONT 1838. Obadiah Smith was largely responsible as he assisted in bringing 
2 CONT officers to officiate at the organization. The minutes of the 
2 CONT organizational meeting have been preserved, and are as followes: "Cedar 
2 CONT Creek, St. Clair County, Missouri, July 1st, Saturday, 1838. In compliance 
2 CONT with a request of the members of the Baptist Church, whose names are 
2 CONT hereafter annexed, Elders Elijah Williams and Hiram Savage, with William 
2 CONT Savage, an ordained Deacon, attended at the place and time mentioned as 
2 CONT Presbyters for the purpose of constituting said members into a Church. 
2 CONT William Ainsworth                      John Connor Lucretia Ainsworth 
2 CONT Warren P. Revis John Long Exra Hamor Obadiah Smith Hesiah Hamor Church 
2 CONT services were held at Cedar Church the following day with Hiram Savage 
2 CONT delivering the service. Cedar Church was an accomplished fact, but there 
2 CONT was no building and no ordained minister. From the begining of time every 
2 CONT community has had itsreligious leader; even the most uncivilized tribes of 
2 CONT people had their high priests, or medicine men. Likewise, the early 
2 CONT settlers on Cedar Creek had their leader in Obadiah Smith. Most such 
2 CONT leaders make an occupation of their calling and receive pay for their 
2 CONT services. Sometimes however, there comes along one of those rare 
2 CONT individuals, who labors only for the enjoyment of his accomplishment. One 
2 CONT of the latter was Obadiah Smith.  Marion Williams who attended services 
2 CONT while he was preaching said, "In education he was not superior to those 
2 CONT about him, but his was an unusual individuality. He was just the large 
2 CONT hearted Christian man to reach out to all the new settlers to draw them 
2 CONT together for religious worship. In the begining, Obadiah made no pretense 
2 CONT of being a preacher, or minister, but was described as being" religiously 
2 CONT aggressive". Later, and in conformity with the precepts of the Baptist 
2 CONT denomination, he felt he had been "called" to preach and spread the Gospel 
2 CONT throughout the land. The members of Cedar Church nominated Smith for 
2 CONT moderator at the second meeting of the Church, in August, 1838. This was 
2 CONT the begining of his career in church work which was to continue for the 
2 CONT next 25 years. From this small begining, mainly through his efforts , the 
2 CONT Baptist Accociation was to extend throughout the territory covering the 
2 CONT northern part of Cedar and part of southern St. Clair Counties. It took 
2 CONT approximately four years to raise the money and start work on Cedar 
2 CONT Church. In the meantime meetings continued to be held at the homes of 
2 CONT various members. During the summer of 1842, services were held in the 
2 CONT house of Dr. William Gordon. It is interesting to note that among the 
2 CONT converts was one known as Gordon's Matildah. This was Matildah, a Negro 
2 CONT slave belonging to Dr. Gordon, and her conversion is an indication that 
2 CONT Cedar Church did not discriminate because of color or condition of 
2 CONT servitude. Obadiah Smith, together with L.R. Athworth, who had recently 
2 CONT arrived from Virginia, were ordained as ministers in September 1841. It 
2 CONT had taken more than two years to have Obadiah Smith ordained, since there 
2 CONT were so few in the country authorized to officiate in such church matters. 
2 CONT Marion Williams who attended services at Cedar Church and knew Obadiah 
2 CONT Smith personally says of Smith, that "through all this timeSmith had 
2 CONT continued the same unceasing worker, and it will here be stated that 
2 CONT through faithful ministry of a quarter of a century he neither asked nor 
2 CONT recieved pay for preaching. He would stand up in his pulpit and ask his 
2 CONT people to contribute to other preachers, adding sometimes, with a smile, 
2 CONT that a good horse can work on the grass, an expression which all in the 
2 CONT new country well understood. Smith acted on principle. He earnestly sought 
2 CONT the conversion of the unsaved. In all their farming operations the Smiths 
2 CONT were well up with their neighbors, and Obadiah neither asked nor received 
2 CONT help from them. If a camp meeting continued one week or two weeks, which 
2 CONT they often did, Obadiah would be there day and night till its close. There 
2 CONT would be no work from him about his home or his business --- never a word 
2 CONT that would remind anyone that he had a home. His whole mind and might at 
2 CONT such times, were in the meetings, which were closed only when it was 
2 CONT thought the good of the cause required. In church his dress was usually 
2 CONT just a little better than the average of his congregation, but the day 
2 CONT after the close of a meeting he would be in his everyday clothes and at 
2 CONT work like any farmer. He had his crops and his live stock. Among the 
2 CONT farmers he was one of them. He knew how to sympathize with them in their 
2 CONT failures. Preacher and people were near together. They knew that he 
2 CONT studied his sermons between his plow handles. Quick in discernment, firm 
2 CONT and positive in his convictions, doing with his might what his hands found 
2 CONT to do, he was born to be a leader. he was sociable and ready in 
2 CONT conversation, which he constantly tried to make helpful and which he never 
2 CONT permitted to descend to trifling frivolity. His generous hospitality was 
2 CONT almost unbounded, his doors were always open and his table always spread 
2 CONT for his friends and for any that might be in need." It is almost an axiom 
2 CONT that all great movement are accompanied by tragedy. The movement to 
2 CONT establish churches throughout early day Cedar was no exception. The Cedar 
2 CONT Association as an organization gradually dwindled away after the Civil War 
2 CONT for lack of a leader. Its motivating force was the altruistic spirit of 
2 CONT Obadiah Smith and its fortunes must rise and fall with his. Obadiah's 
2 CONT wife, Lucinda, died shortly after the family settled in Cedar County. 
2 CONT Reubin and John were the couples only children. Soon after the death of 
2 CONT his first wife, Obadiah married Elizabeth Hartman, a younger sister of 
2 CONT Lucinda. To this union six children were born : they were, Andrew, Henry, 
2 CONT Peter, Campell, Samuel W. and Catherine. Catherine, the only girl and the 
2 CONT youngest was born in 1849. When the Civil War started Obadiah Smith was 55 
2 CONT years of age. In spite of the vast time he spent in church work, he 
2 CONT continued to prosper from his farming operations and was one of the 
2 CONT wealthiest men in Cedar County. In those days of confusion when Cedar 
2 CONT County was almost equally divided between those who maintained loyalty to 
2 CONT the North and to the South, men of means were likely victims of either 
2 CONT side. Obadiah Smith was no exception, in spite of the fact that he was 
2 CONT known far and wide as a God Fearing man. After the War started all 
2 CONT organized church work had to be abandoned. The Smith boys who were at the 
2 CONT time of military age enlisted on the side of the North. Obadiah entered 
2 CONT politics and was appointed Representative from Cedar County to the State 
2 CONT Legislature for the 1862-1863 session. He returned home from Jefferson 
2 CONT City in the Spring of 1863, at a time when his sons were away fighting. On 
2 CONT April 18, 1863, a group of men wearing ragged blue uniforms approached the 
2 CONT house of Obadiah Smith, and called for him to come out front. The men 
2 CONT appeared to be a group of Federal Scouts, so he and his wife, Elizabeth, 
2 CONT went out to see what they wanted. Obadiah took along his rifle, which was 
2 CONT a weapon far superior to the ordinary musket of that time. After talking 
2 CONT to the men for a time, one of them asked to take a closer look at 
2 CONT Obadiah's weapon. Still assuming they were Union troops he gladly 
2 CONT complied. Obadiah realized too late, that he had made a fatal mistake-- 
2 CONT his callers were Rebel Guerillas; he was executed by his own weapon while 
2 CONT standing by his wife. The manner of the passing of Obadiah Smith is partly 
2 CONT legend but the time and place of his death are authentic. All five of his 
2 CONT sons died in the Civil War.  His passing brought to an end the career of 
2 CONT one of Cedar County's most devoted and dedicated religious leaders. His 
2 CONT last resting place is near the middle of the western part of the Hackleman 
2 CONT Cemetery --- there is a marker not far from the markers of those  other 
2 CONT early pioneer's like John G. and Nancy Williams, Robert and Levicy 
2 CONT Williams, Thomas and James Gordon, and many other's. The tragedies of the 
2 CONT Civil War halted the expansion of the Cedar Association --- but Obadiah 
2 CONT Smith's work was not lost. "He was like a man who built a house, and 
2 CONT digged deep, and laid the foundation upon a rock: and when the flood 
2 CONT arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: 
2 CONT for it was founded upon a rock." Likewise the churchs which Obadiah Smith 
2 CONT and his followers founded were built upon a solid foundation of integrity, 
2 CONT self denial, and brotherly love. In spite of the ravages of the Civil War, 
2 CONT the panics and depressions, and the luxuries of modern good roads and 
2 CONT quick transportation, after 125 years, a number of those old Cedar 
2 CONT Association churches are still in existence.

1 NOTE It is almost certain that Peter King II and his family left The

2 CONT Alliagiance to the English Government which was done in the presence of 
2 CONT William Penn the newly arrived Proproetor of Pennsyvannia and the Three 
2 CONT Lower Counties which made up Delaware. For several years Peter de Conicnk 
2 CONT II lived in the Labadist Colony in Cecil County, Maryland. Labadism was a 
2 CONT strange strict new religion which quickly died out. It was based on the 
2 CONT idea that everyone lived in a communal and worked for the good of the

2 CONT colony and the religion collapsed. Peter King's son Peter King the third 
2 CONT received his fathers share of the land since his father by this time was

1 NOTE The year of 1648 was a troubled one for Flanders but a significant one for

2 CONT southern part of Flanders including the Wytschaete Ypres region were the 
2 CONT ancestors lived and worked. Subsequently, by the Treaty of 1648, the area 
2 CONT became part of France leaving many of the Protestant families in a dilema. 
2 CONT They could stay and face certain persecution from new Catholic authorities 
2 CONT bent on revenge and exploitation, or they could flee the region and 
2 CONT attempt to start life anew somewhere else without the security of home or 
2 CONT business ties. The decision of the de Coninck family was to leave. Their 
2 CONT new home would be in the southern part of The Netherlands. It had an 
2 CONT advantage of lying only about 40 miles north of the north of Ypres and 
2 CONT being under Protestant control. ALong with the possible fact that some 
2 CONT relatives of the De Puydt family allready lived here. Pieter and his 
2 CONT family first settled in Sint Anna ter Muiden in the southwestern portion 
2 CONT of the Zeeland Province in The Netherlands. Pieter and his wife became 
2 CONT members of the Reformed Dutch Church. They then moved to Groed in Zeeland 
2 CONT Province. Church records in Groed indecate that Pieter died in Groed some

1 NOTE The earliest known King ancestors did not spell their name King. Rather, 
2 CONT their name was de Coninck which is the flemish version of the same 
2 CONT surname, and thier residence in the late 1500's was in what is now the 
2 CONT western part of Belgium, about 60 miles west of Brussels. At this time 
2 CONT however this was a part of Flanders. Unfortunately, no specific 
2 CONT information was found on the earliest-known direct ancestors as to their 
2 CONT social relations, cultural background, and their ideas and prejudices. 
2 CONT Nonetheless, certain general deductions can be made due to their known 
2 CONT standing in the early 1600's as "buitenpoorters" (non-resident business 
2 CONT persons) of the city of Ypres. First it is certain that the de 
2 CONT Coninck(King) ancestors were educated persons because the conduct of 
2 CONT business required a fair degree of intelligence and executive ability. 
2 CONT They evidently had training in mathematics and probably were familar with 
2 CONT the use of counters and of the abacus. Furthermore, they had to have had 
2 CONT an understanding of bookkeeping and finance, and also would have had 
2 CONT training in letter writing and were probably bilingual. They would have 
2 CONT known both Flemish and also the language of the business world, French. 
2 CONT Thus from an intellectual viewpoint the ancestors in early 17th century 
2 CONT Flanders can be visualized as able and hardworking but with knowledge 
2 CONT probably little beyond what was necessary to earn a living. Like others at 
2 CONT the time, they probably were religious and attended church regularly. Also 
2 CONT like many others in the area, The de Coninck ancestors apparently severed 
2 CONT their ties to Catholicism in the mid to late 1500's and became members of 
2 CONT the "Reformed" Church. This change may well have led to their move to The 
2 CONT Netherlands.

2 CONT the river to New Orleans. After disposing of the cargo the enterprising

2 CONT Young William Evans made this journey twice on foot. This was the stern 
2 CONT education which prepared him for the sucess of after life. While living 
2 CONT near Pittsburg he cleared two farms of forty-five acres each. William 
2 CONT Evans was of mixed Welch and Irish descent, his father being Welch and his

2 CONT west side of England. August 1639 John White was received as an inhabitant 
2 CONT of Salem, and granted 60 acres land, near Mr. Smith's farm. Continued 
2 CONT research has uncovered the name of his wife her ancestry and a little more 
2 CONT about John. John married on May 28,1627 Joan West. The newly married 
2 CONT couple lived for a little time in Drayton, where there two oldest sons 
2 CONT were born. In 1638 or before he owned a home in Southharpe, in the parish 
2 CONT of South Petherton, which he sold to his brother Robert before coming to 
2 CONT New England with his wife and little children to make a new home in the 
2 CONT wilderness. He settled first in Salem . Although Savage and others have 
2 CONT told us( and was supposed on good authority) that he came in 1638, it is 
2 CONT not possible to find his movements until 1639, and it is now believed he 
2 CONT left England in April and reached Salem in August of 1639 when he granted 
2 CONT his land.

2 CONT the thirteen petitioners belonging to Sudbury asked the General Council 
2 CONT for a new plantation. Edmund Rice had a vision which involved both 
2 CONT leadership and ambition for the acquisition of land. Not only did Rice 
2 CONT become the largest individual landholder in Sudbury, but he represented 
2 CONT his new town in the Massachusetts legislature for five years and devoted 
2 CONT at least eleven of the first fifteen years to serving as selectman and 
2 CONT judge of small causes. Rice remained a dissenter all his life. He moved 
2 CONT from Suffolk, in England, to Hertfordshire to Watertown, Massachusetts; 
2 CONT and from Watertown to Sudbury. Two generations of Sudbury men selected 
2 CONT Edmund Rice repeatedly as one of their leaders, with full realization that 
2 CONT they were ignoring men of far more English governmental experience who had 
2 CONT come with him. Rice continued his practice of buying up lots of land and 
2 CONT emerged with the largest single farm in Sudbury. Improvements in the 
2 CONT structure of borough government in England were difficult to make. 
2 CONT Tradition dominated, the charter defined all " rights and privileges," and 
2 CONT the function of a burgess was simply to impose ancient customs and demands 
2 CONT on the populace. One thing was certain. Borough government flourished when 
2 CONT there was trade and languished when business declined. For English borough 
2 CONT government consisted in a set of rights rented from the King, and these 
2 CONT rights allowed governing council to levy fines and to rent property, all 
2 CONT in the name of keeping peace and order. The rights were rented not given. 
2 CONT If the bailiff failed to pay the annual sum within 28 days of the stated 
2 CONT time the whole borough of Berkhamsted would cease and be void.
