NOTES:
Conventional wisdom has Elizabeth Green Bruce King buried in the family cemetery. It is possible Elizabeth Green Bruce King was buried in Old Paint Lick Cemetery in Paint Lick, Garrard, Kentucky.

From Yvonne on December 23, 2012:
I have the cemetery books for Garrard Co & my book doesn't say any Kings are buried in this Bruce Cemetery, BUT....I do find an Elizabeth King in.... Paint Lick Cemetery, kind of in the general area as Bruce Cem. Her dates are 1781-1811. Sounds like that could be her. There are also Greens and Kings in that cemetery. It might be called Old Paint Lick on FAG.
**The Greens and Kings in Old Paint Lick Cemetery are not related to Elizabeth Bruce King's family.

From Bruce King on January 17, 2013:
The dates she [Yvonne] stated (1781-1811) are scary close to what they should be for Elizabeth Green Bruce King. Elizabeth's burial in the Bruce Cemetery is based on Sherlock's Lineage Memorial, which has errors. I think Yvonne is more than likely correct.

From Shelby Williams on March 4, 2013:
I searched a book that I have titled "Cemetery Records of Garrard County, 1792-1996." This was a complete survey completed in 1997 of all the cemeteries that could be found. I was not able to find a Elizabeth King in any cemetery in the county, including the Bruce Cemetery. I checked another resource for the "Lancaster Cemetery Records from 1857-1994," again without finding a listing for Elizabeth King.

From Catherine Shively on August 29, 2018:
Suggests birth year of 1780.
Suggests born in Virginia.
Suggests death year of 1806.
