Lizzie Huggins King was born in July of 1886 in South Carolina, in the Dillon County area, the daughter of Thomas Huggins. Around 1905 Lizzie married Lonzo "Lonnie O." King, and they had a son, Rembert Lonzo King (born in 1909), and a daughter, Pauline King (born in 1917), and perhaps as many as three other children. Only Rembert seems to have survived to adulthood.
On March 12, 1919 in Dillon County, Lizzie, at the age of 32, passed away from the Spanish Flu and is probably buried somewhere in Dillion County. The pandemic may have been the worst epidemic in human history. Unlike most diseases a large number of young adults died. The peak age for death was 28.
Her ten-year-old son Rembert's first cousin, Walter Kit Bailey, took Rembert in after her death. Years after Lizzie's death, Lonnie remarried, to Mary Margaret Chappell King Wright.
Thanks so much to Lizzie's sister-in-law Nettie King Neely Riley and other King family researchers for much of this information. Any errors, however, are mine alone. Please go to the "edit" link on this site with any corrections or additions. If a closer relative than I would like to manage this burial site, please let me know. I would appreciate any information on what specific cemetery in which Lizzie is buried. I hope someone will add her photo to this site.
