The History of Danby has her marrying Jeptha King, but it also mentions that some time after their marriage in 1793 she left to join the Mormons at Nauvoo, in Illinois.  However, Nauvoo was not settled by Mormons until 1839.  This source also mentions that she did not have any children, but records appear to show that Jeptha and Lucretia King had children in early 1800s censuses.
