From the King Genealogy, p. 155:
This in brief is the record of a worthy couple who with five children moved to Manchester, NY., in 1802, at which place there was afterwards born to them two more children. Mr. King settled about two miles west of Clifton Springs, NY., on the old State road. After a time many of their old neighbors came from Suffield, Hartford, CT., and settled there also, among whom were the Deweys, Redfields, Grangers (Hezekiah Granger was the step-father of Stephen A. Douglas), and Bements. Joshua Kendall King was a very enterprising man and took great interest in all public improvements; building bridges, imporving roads and erecting churches and schools. In course of time it became necessary for the convenience of travelers on the stage coaches and emigrant wagons to have stopping places with more and better conveniences. Mr. King, to accommodate these, threw open his house with the modest sign "King's Inn," which old sign still remains (1908) as a relic of pioneer days. The old homestead and farm being still in possession of his descendants. He did not accumulate a great amount of worldly goods but left an unsullied name and a record for business enterprise, probity and useful citizenship of which his descendants may justly feel proud.
