Hi JoAnn,

I am interested in your William King Bradford, and brothers in that there were
certainly connections with the John King of old Orange County, now Alamance
County, North Carolina. Two Bradfords, D. Bradford and Thomas Bradford were
witnesses to his will of May 1797. I suspect that there were more than just a
cursory connection with these two families, but have not found anything
concrete to make this connection. I know that this is not much help at this
point, but if there are others who seem to have the King attachment to their
Bradford lines, it may be a wise decision to compile what we can on these two
families to see what comes out of the mix.

Also, I understand that you have a Graham family connection; I have Grahams
who intermarried with the Kings of Orange/Alamance County as well.
