"Honor and shame from no condition Rise Act well your part, there all the honor lies " By Pope

From the Introduction, to his book The King Family of Suffield CT.

" Whatever may be one's responsibly to his descendants for their moral or physical characters, it is certain that no person is entitled either to credit or blame for the virtues or vices, the greatness or lowliness of his ancestors. Yet knowledge of whom they were, whence they come, and what pursuits they followed, is usually of interest too most men. If among them is found here and there some one who was eminent or distinguished in the times in which he lived, his descendants may be pardoned for feeling that natural pride of one kinsman in the achievements of another. Even between two friends the success of one is a source of gratification to the other. Influenced by some such feeling I venture to hope that the following remarks on the origin of the family names in general and of the surname KING in particular, the short sketch of the King family in Great Britain, and especially the genealogical and historical record of one branch of the King family, which has now been established in America for nearly two, and a half centuries-- eleven generations of which have lived upon her soil [1905] And many members of which have fought to establish and perpetuate the great Republic under which we live and to preserve the liberty we enjoy---may not prove uninteresting to those who are connected by blood with that family. Many years ago my Father, George Eliphalet King Esq. exhibited to me an old manuscript which gave some account of my Great- Grandfather, Lt. Eliphalet King. His service as an officer in the Continental Army, his presence at the battle of Bunker Hill and his participation in many other engagements during the struggle of the American Colonies for independence. After my Fathers death in 1897 I discovered that old manuscript had been accidentally destroyed and I resolved to supply its loss by collecting from authentic sources, such as data concerning the lives of my American ancestors as could be conveniently obtained. My intention at first was to write merely a concise history of my own immediate ancestors beginning with William Kinge who was the first of our family to come to America. Before I had proceeded far with my self appointed task I was urged to extend the scope of my investigations so as to include some research concerning our English ancestry. And also embrace, as far as possible, the various branches of the family in America, which are scattered over many States of the union. In an unguarded moment without fully realizing the vast amount of labor it involved I rashly consented and began the compilation of this Genealogy. Eight years have elapsed since then and during that period I have devoted all the time, which I could spare from my professional duties to this work. It has necessitated the investigation of parish records in England and of many Church and Town records in New England. The searching of probate courts and land records. Title examination of numerous ancient and modern deeds, wills and documents relating to members of the King family; the carrying on of a very extensive correspondence as a means of obtaining more accurate information; and the collection generally of the material which is herein presented to the reader. Members of the same family sometimes differ as to dates. A few records will be found incomplete, but generally- this is due to the failure of persons to make reply to repeated letters of inquiry. And though I have exercised the greatest possible care to avoid errors. Undoubtedly some will be discovered in the book. Not withstanding these imperfections I am content with the work. I have done the best I could do and I sincerely hope that my kinsmen who read these pages may also be satisfied with my effort."

Col. Cameron Haight King was born near Rochester, New York in 1844 and completed his education at the university of Rochester, class of 1863. Col. King comes from a race of lawyers. His father was a prominent lawyer of Western New York and his ancestral grandfather Fletcher M Haight, was judge of the U.S. District Court in California. Col. King was engaged in mining in Montana from 1865 to 1868 but came to California in 1868 at the request of his uncle, Henry H. Haight, who was then Governor of the State. He was appointed Executive Secretary of the Governor and at the same time began the study of law in his uncle's office and was admitted to the practice of law April 14, 1873, by the Supreme Court. In 1870, Col King was elected the Secretary of the Code Commission of which Col. Creed Haymond was Chairman and John C. Burch and Charles Lindley afterwards succeeded by Charles A. Tuttle, were members. Col King assisted in the compilation of the Codes and in the annotation of the Commissioners edition and gave marked evidence of unusual legal ability. For a number of years Col King was connected with the State Militia and was a Lieutenant Colonel on the staff of the Governor of California. One of the first efforts of Col. King at the bar was his able defense of the notorious Charles Mortimer, who had committed many murders and was finally hanged at Sacramento, Ca. for the murder of Mrs. Gibson. Col. King also successfully defended Edward J. Muybridge, the photographer, for the killing of Harry Larkins. In this trial at Napa City. The young lawyer displayed his oratorical powers to great advantage and divided the honors with Hon. Wirt Pendegast etc. In civil practice, in the contest of the will of John S. Manson, Col King and Hon. Arthur Rogers, his partner, received for their services a fee of $33,000. In the suit of Smith vs. San Francisco he recovered for his client $66,000 for lumber burned on Beale St. Warf during the Denis Kearney anti Chinese agitation. Etc. From 1881 to 1888 Col. King was absent from California, during a portion of which time he was traveling. In 1885 he was engaged with a lawsuit in Arizona. In that year also, he was appointed by President Grover Cleveland, Special U.S. Attorney for Arizona. In 1866, He was appointed by the Gov. and Legislature of Arizona as Commissioner to revise its laws. Col. King was made chairman of the commission and the rapidity of his work has been frequently extolled. All the preexisting laws of the Territory were repealed in toto and a new Code, or revised Statutes as was called, was enacted, all vested rights were preserved. Upon the completion of the revision of the laws of Arizona, Col King was appointed, by the Governor, Commissioner of Immigration, and finally resigned from this office to resume the practice of his profession in San Francisco. On his return to San Francisco Col. King as attorney for Duncan F. Macdonald was successful in an action to establish Macdonald's partnership right to one half of property valued at $250,000 standing in the name of Captain Charles E. S. Macdonald who came to California in 1850. Col King was a Tilden President Elector in 1876 and has been honored by his party with the State Senatorial nomination for his district.

He was buried on 19 Jun 1904 in Arlington National Cemetery, Washington, D.C. Obituary notice of Admiral James A Greer from the Army and Navy Journal of June 25,1904

" Rear Admiral James A Greer U.S Navy Retired, died at his home 2010 Hillyer Place Washington, D.C. June 17 in his seventy second year. He had been in poor health for the past 3 months and had been confined to his bed. Admiral Greer, who was born in Ohio, had a notable record of Service. He was appointed midshipman Jan 10,1848. In 1854 he was promoted to the rank of passed midshipman and in 1855 to that of master. He was commissioned a Lieutenant in 1855,and while on board the San Jacinto in 1861 assisted in the removal of Mason and Slidell from the English Mail Steamer Trent. He was made a Lt. Commander in 1862, and commanded at different times the Ironclad Carondelet and Benton, and a division of Rear Admiral Porter's Squadron in the Mississippi River. In the passage of Vicksburg, April 16,1863 he fought the Batteries of Grand Gulf for 5 hours and in the combined attack on that city he was almost constantly under fire for 45 days. He had charge of the navel station at Mound City, ILL in 1864, and soon thereafter was given command of the flagship Blackhawk, which position he held until Feb. 1865. He was commissioned a Commander in 1866 and commanded the purchased steamer Tigress when she went to the Polaris Relief Expedition, discovering the lost ship wrecked on the coast of Greenland, he crew having gone south in search of aid. Before returning South himself Commander Greer cruised for some time in northern waters looking for the survivors and taking notes. In 1876 he was made a Captain, and as such had command of the training Frigate Constitution, and later the sloop Consitlation. He was employed afterwards in taking U.S. exhibits to La Have, France for the Paris Exposition. For a time he commanded the steamer Hartford at the South Atlantic station. He was a member of the naval board of inspection later and president of the naval examination and retiring boards from 1885 until 1887. In 1886 he was commissioned as a Commodore, and the following year was appointed acting Rear Admiral. He commanded the European Squadron from 1887 to 1889. In 1889 he was president of the board of organization tactics and drills, and was fulfilling other duties. He was commissioned a Rear Admiral in 1892,and after that time was again president of the naval examining and retiring boards. He was retired Feb 28,1895, and spent the rest of his life with his family in Washington. He was stationed at the navy yard in Washington for many years. The funeral took place Sunday afternoon June 19, with Military honors. And interment was at Arlington. Rev. Dr. Alfred Harding, rector of St. Paul's Episcopal Church conducted the service. He leaves a daughter Byrd Page Greer and 2 sons all of who live in Washington. His wife died 4 years ago."

The Dayton, Ohio Journal also said

" The death of Rear Admiral Greer retired, removes a noteworthy link between the old and the new in the history of the U.S. Navy. His youthful years of service belong to time when there were still sloops and frigates and line of battle ships, when a man-of-war carried the population of a town and rows on rows of cannon. He witnessed the introduction of steamships into the navy. And all the changes from the wooden vessel to the modern floating castle of steel. From broad sides of 64 and upwards of old smooth bore guns that were best fought at a distance of a few hundred feet to long great steel guns that throw a shell clear over the horizon and hit a enemy hull down and almost out of sight. His life covered the whole series of changes in tactics. From the day when it was of the highest importance to get the wind gage in a contest at sea. Down to the time when the important factor in maneuvering is to know the radius of a circle in which a ship can turn and in how far she can go without refilling her coal bunkers. Aside from the armored float, which Napoleon the 3rd tried in the Crimean war. Admiral Greer shared some of the earliest experiments in Ironclad, those in which river steamships were converted to gunboats with sloping covers of railroad iron. Up and down the the Mississippi, up and down Red River, his name is written in history of a kind of naval warfare almost unexampled in the experience of mankind. When fleets were built and manned to fight tremendous battles hundreds of miles from the sea, sometimes in places that led Abraham Lincoln to say that Uncle Sam's sailors were web footed and ready to sail their vessels wherever there was a heavy dew. No doubt this was a very different kind of warfare from that he had dreamed of when he was with the sloop-of-war St. Mary's in the Pacific, or the frigate Columbia or the Independence in the fifties. Even at the outbreak of the Civil War he was still a salt-water sailor and shared in the historical achievement of taking Mason and Slidell from the British steamer Trent. And after the war was over and the river fleets worse from his fresh water experience. The Navy has changed much so far as its ships are concerned and its guns and projectiles and powder. But it will never see the time when it will not need men like Admiral Greer."

He was buried in West Point, N.Y.

"Major General Thomas John Wood, U. S. A., b, Munfordville Ky. Sept 25, 1823 d. Dayton, Ohio, Feb. 25, 1906. Gen. Wood was well known, not only because of his services in the War of the Rebellion, but as a survivor of the Mexican War, in which he served as a Lieutenant, as did Grant, Sherman, Johnston and many others who won high rank in the Civil War. Gen. Wood's chief military renown was the result of his splendid work in the War of the Rebellion as a brigade, division, and corps commander. Unlike some other general officers he declined to be invalidated and leave his troops even when wounded and there are few if any who served longer in the field than he, or with more ability.

His intelligent comprehension of the plans of his superiors and prompt co-operation in the necessary movements, were material contributions to the success of campaigns. His personal bravery was never questioned, nor was his reputation as a soldier ever successfully assailed. Gen. Wood was graduated from the Military academy at West Point on July 1, 1845, as a brevet second lieutenant in the topographical engineers, and was at once ordered to report for duty to Gen. Zachary Taylor whose headquarters were at Corpus Christie, Texas. The next spring Taylor marched his little army to the Rio Grande which movement provoked a declaration of war from the Mexican government. Lieut. Wood was engaged at the battles of Palto Alto, Monterey and Buena Vista and was then transferred to the cavalry service and assigned to the Second Dragoons He remained on duty in Mexico until that country was evacuated by the American troops. In the fall of 1848 Gen. Wood went with his regiment to the Indian frontier of Texas where he remained for eleven years. He served as aide to Gen. Harney at San Antonio and Austin in 1849 and was Adjutant of the Second dragoons from September 1849, until July 1854. At the outbreak of the civil war he was assigned to the command of a division of infantry. He participated in the battles of Shiloh, Perryville, Stone River, Chicamauga, Missionary Ridge, Franklin and Nashville and all the many actions of the Atlanta campaign. He was severely wounded at Stone River and again at Lovejoy's Station. He was for three years in command of a division until promoted to the command of the 4th army corps, as successor to Gen. Stanley, wounded at the battle of Franklin, Tenn., Nov. 30, 1864. This corps he commanded until it was mustered out of service in 1865. Gen. Wood's long and active service compelled his retirement for disability in 1868. He was placed on the retired list as Major General, a rank he had fairly earned and well deserved. Gen. Wood was a good disciplinarian without being in any degree martinet. He abhorred pillaging and straggling as subversive of military discipline. He was solicitous for the comfort of his soldiers and the commissary department of his division was one of the best in the army. So far as it was possible for him to provide, his men had their full share of whatever rations were in sight, and if their haversacks were sometimes empty they always had the regulation "forty rounds" in their cartridge boxes. In action he was cool, resolute, resourceful, and even jocular, as shown by his remark to Gen. Chittenden. Just as the division was going in battle at Stone River, Dec, 31,1862: "Good bye, General, we'll all meet the hatter's as one coon said to another when the dogs were after them." Only two brigades of Wood's division were engages at Chicamauga. One brigade remaining in Chattanooga on garrison duty. After the disaster to the right on the second day, Gen. Brannan formed his division on "Horseshoe" ridge but did not connect with Reynolds's division next on the left Wood was moving to close this interval when the advancing enemy came within musket range. Changing front under fire, always a dangerous movement, Wood faced is division south instead of east, ordered a charge with fixed bayonets, drove back the Confederates and gained the precious moments necessary to bring his troops in to the gap between Brauman's and Reynolds division. Here for five hours raged an incessant storm of battle. Thomas, from the rear of Wood's division, sent up two cannon with the message, "The position must be held." "Tell Gen. Thomas," was the reply "that we will hold the position or go to heaven from it". During that Sunday afternoon of terrific fighting, the only men that fell away from the Federal position were the wounded and the heroic souls that went "to heaven from it."

When the blessed night came the Union line was still intact and the army had been saved. For many years one of the most familiar sights on the streets of Dayton was a sturdy old soldier with a kind work and smile for every one he met, and when a stranger would ask what he was, the answer was always the same, "That's the General." Rich or poor, high or low, made no difference with him, his broad nature took them all in and made mankind his friend. Such was Thomas J Wood, the citizen, in the daily walks of peace and these last years served to round out his life. For many years on Memorial Day he acted as Grand Marshall and sat upon his horse up to his eightieth year as well as he ever did in youth. His daily ride was a feature of his life and it was a matter of comment that no one could sit a horse as well as Gen. Wood could. In his home life he believed that a man's highest duty was to those who gathered round the same fireside. When the last days came, when strength and health were gradually fading away, never for a moment was that serene nature daunted, never a complaint came. With a smile on his lips he fought the battle to the end. Up to the last two years of his life, he retained the strength and vitality of a man of sixty, but gradually his health broke down. There was no special sickness or disease. The machine, a good machine at that, which had done faithful service in the bloody days of the sixties, was wearing out, and the spark of life burning low. Although he fought his grim adversary as valiantly as he had on the slopes of Snodgrass Hill, the victory could not be his. At last on a peaceful Sunday afternoon that gallant soul quietly passed away. A brave soldier had gone over the river to join his comrades of the days of yore.

Years before General Wood had expressed a desire to be buried in the cemetery at West Point and inconformity to that wish his body was interred on the beautiful banks of the Hudson. There he rests in peace, his life work well done. As a soldier he never failed to do his duty. As a citizen he neglected no responsibility, as a man he did justice to every man, and surely that beautiful verse which Saint Peter wrote many years ago expresses his character, I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith; henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness".
