Thanks for the info. I re-read my message and I must admit it lacked clarity. What I wanted was to find any decendants of the people listed who may reside in America.

Once again thanks.

Most of my family grew up in Whitehaven, Cumbria, a place which had great links with Virginia, USA.
I'm searching for the families of 3 male members of the family.

Robert King, born 1845
William King, born1835
Hugo King, born 1854.

Any info at all will do.
