In 1756, when he was 18, he had a relationship with Experience Richardson and their son Simeon was born on 14 Jun 1757. Experience sued him for 'child support' for their son . She won child support but was prosecuted for fornication.

Simeon is considered a Revolutionary War patriot because he was a Minute Man in the Lexington Alarm in 1775. His service is documented in "Massachusetts Soldiers and Sailors", Vol 9 p. 272. This will get you into the DAR.

Simeon & Mary (Carver) King were definitely in Brandon, Rutland County, VT from about 1785 until maybe 1810 but then may have moved on to upstate NY. A Simeon King was named a trustee of the First Congregational Church of Bridgewater, Oneida County, NY at their Annual Meeting in 1815. After this, nothing has been found.
