OBITUARY:
KING. ­ On the 28th of September, 1892, near Allensville, Mifflin Co., Pa., David H., son of C. H. King, aged 30 years, 8 months and 29 days. He died very suddenly of cramps in the stomach. On the 27th he did a day's work cutting off corn. In the evening he took sick. The fore part of the night he suffered great pain, and then he fell in a faint and was unconscious till death released him of his suffering at nine o'clock on Wednesday morning. He leaves a sorrowing wife, one child, his father, step-mother, two sisters and two brothers to mourn his departure. Funeral services conducted at the house by Pre. D. J. Zook and J. H. Byler, after which the remains were consigned to the silent tomb, followed by a large number of friends and relatives.
"Brother dear, we all do miss thee,
Thou hast gone from earth away
To rejoice with thy dear Savior
In the realms of endless day.
"He is sleeping, calmly sleeping
In a new made grave to-day;
We are weeping, sadly weeping
For our loved one gone away.
"His song of life too soon is sung,
Too soon he's left the earthly shore;
His harp is on the willow hung,
We'll hear its notes on earth no more.
"His sun is set in dark eclipse
Ere it had reached its hour of noon;
The plans he formed for future life
Lie buried in the lowly tomb."

On 17 Feb 1891, David H. King married Lydia Jane Hostetler.
David and Lydia were the parents of one child, Edna Martha King.
