Born Jan. 5,1955 in Cincinnati Ohio. I was one of six children. I lived in Ohio until the age of six when my family moved to Northern Ky. where I spent most of my childhood. I married in 1978 my wife of 39 years raised four beautiful children. We are now retired and live in the south eastern part of Ky. where my parents,and grandparents and their children lived. Also it is the birthplace of Joshua William King which the book is about he is my third great grandfather. Hope everyone enjoys the book.
