Captain William King, son of Robert King and Hannah Scarborough, was the first of the name whom we find in the records of Stafford County, Va., as settling there permanently. He married Martha Richardson of Middlesex County, Va. He was a captain of militia in that county. After her death he married Judith Peyton, daughter of Valentine Peyton and Frances Gerrard. Col Valentine Peyton, born in England in 1629 a son of Henry Peyton and Katherine Bathman, came to Virginia about 1654 and settled in Westmoreland County where his estate was known as "Nominy." He was descended from the Peytons of Isleham, in Cambridgeshire, England. He married in 1660, Frances, daughter of Dr. Thomas Gerrard and his wife Susanna Snow, (widow of Col. Thomas Spake), of Maryland and Virginia. Captain William King died in Stafford County, Va., in 1716, leaving a will in which he named his children as follows: Elizabeth, Sarah, Jane, Margaret, William Alfred, Thomas and John.
