If Mary was 18 at the time of her birth, Mary would be born in 1680. Three men with the King surname are found among Baltimore County land records buying property in the county before 1700 that could be her father or brother: Thomas, Henry and Richard.[1] Henry seems to warrant the most research since they named a child Henry.
