Individual Details
Malissa Catherine Harmon
(26 Nov 1853 - )
Malissa married (1) Andrew King and (2) Wilson.
In 1885, when she testified for her father's attempt to get his Civil War pension, she was Melissa King, living in Burr Oak, Jewell Co, Kansas. Her husband's given name not stated.
The 1880 census does have in Burr Oak, a Joseph King, age 25, born in Canada and his wife is "Minerva", age 26 [right age for Malissa], born in Iowa, father b. KY, mother b. IN. A daughter Ina Ora was age 1 and born in Missouri - since the Harmons seem to have not lived in Missouri, this probably eliminates any possibility this is Malissa's family.
