[or-roots] Huntley - King

[George Ross]

Les,
I have Nathanial Calhoun HUNTLEY, b. 23 Feb 1827, Athens, Athens, Ohio; d. 
1908, Gold Beach, Curry, Oregon; m. 25 Feb 1847 Henry, Missouri, to Mary 
Jane KING, b.1832, Missouri.
As of this date, that is all I have. However, I appreciate the added info on 
Mary's father.
George
