I have wondered who Richard was because he is buried next to Joseph & Charlotte King, but I did not know how he fit in the family... I have attached the following scans in this e-mail and one other (can only send a max of three at a time so I sent two and two):

Terry Wallace King 1882 - 1958 (son of Joseph Pollard & Charlotte) Jessie Eleanor (Baker) King 1888 - 1957 (wife of Terry Wallace) Edith & Edward King 1919 (infant twins of Terry & Jessie)

Joseph Pollard King 1848 - 1911 Charlotte Rubena (Thorpe) King 1865 - 1934 Bessie E. King 1892 (infant daughter of Joseph & Charlotte)

Richard D. King 1850 - 1937

They are all buried at Thompson cemetery in Columbia Twp., Van Buren county, Michigan.
