Notes |
- There are reports from Roscoe DeLoach, Sr., and Charlotte Lance DeLoach that Margaret Atkins was married prior to wedding Nathan DeLoach.
In the 1840 Carter County census, there is a Margaret King who is the head of this household:
Margaret King Males 1(0-5), 1(10-15)
Females 1(0-5), 1(5-10), 1(20-30), 1(70-80)
In the 1850 Carter County Census listing for the Nathan DeLoach household, Joseph L. King, 9 years old, is listed following Nathan's sons Samuel and William. Margaret is 38. There is another King household in the 1850 Carter County census:
Albert S. King 25 VA
Elizabeth King 17 VA
Unlike the other households, this one does not have a marriage date listed, which would leave you to be believe that Albert and Elizabeth are siblings. If Margaret were the mother of Albert, Elizabeth and Joseph, she would only be 13 years older that Albert. Perhaps she was the second wife to the father of Albert and Elizabeth. So, all of this leaves open the questions, is this the same Margaret that married Nathan DeLoach, and if so, who was her first husband and what happened to him?
In 1860, Joseph King is living with Mary Kendrick, and Albert King appears to be married to a 40 year old Nancy..
