The name of Catharine (Ruth) Konig is found in the King Family of York, Pennsylvania book[1]. Some online family trees say she was born 10 March 1770 in Berks County, Pennsylvania to George and Anna Maria (Bentz) Ruth of Berks County, Pennsylvania.
There is no known record of the marriage of Philip Jacob King and Catharine Ruth. It may have occurred in York or Berks County, Pennsylvania. They were probably married in about 1789, before the birth of their first child in January 1790.
Philip and Catharine had 12 children between 1790 and 1813[1]. They were:
* Anna Maria King (1790- ), married 1806 George Kann (1783-1877)
* Catherine King (1792- ), died young.
* George King (1794-1860), married Rachel Johnston (1800-1874)
* Elizabeth King (1796-1863), married 1815 Daniel Spangler (1791-1851)
* Salome "Sarah" King (1797-1836), married 1821 Jacob Ehrhart ( 1794 - 1975)
* Lydia King (1799- ), died young.
* Catherine King (1801- ), died young.
* Jacob King (1803-1878 ), married Sarah Salome Smyser (1808-1895)
* Rebecca King (1805- ), died young.
* Barbara King (1808-1852), who married 1829 Peter Zacharias (1800- ).
* Julia Anna King (1810-1825)
* Henry King (1813-1886), married about 1838 Leah Johnston (1816-1844)
Note that the first female child is named Anna Maria, and the first male child is named George, which are the given names of the purported parents of Catharine Ruth.
Catharine (Ruth) King died on 8 December 1813 in York, York County, Pennsylvania, leaving Philip Jacob King with a household of young children[2].
No burial location is known, although she is probably buried in Prospect Hill Cemetery in York.
