Biography

Beriah King was the son of Consider King and Sarah Palmer.

His date of birth 06 Feb 1763 was published by George F. J. King in the Sep 1909 issue of The Genealogical Exchange (vol. 6, no. 5, p 35; see photo attachment), ^[1] along with the dates of birth of his ten siblings, with no corroborating sources for any of the dates of birth or death. (However, the dates of birth of Ebenezer, Beriah and Abigail can be corroborated as cited, the ages of Sarah and William in the 1850 US Census are both consistent with their published dates of birth, and Ebenezer stated in his Revolutionary War pension file that the source of his date of birth was the family Bible):
