A facsimile of the 1611 KJV printing can be viewed at

(Opens at the beginning of the apocrypha). 

I see pilcrows at the title of each book and one appearing at I Esdras 2:8, I Esdras 3:13, I Esdras 4:13, ...  I'm not counting them all, but they originally appeared more frequently than every 30 pages (if the book I'm referencing is what it claims to be.)

I myself don't have a printed copy of the KJV complete with the Apocrypha.

If anyone on this list has one, could I have a yes / no answer as to whether
any of the Apocryphal books contain  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilcrow
pilcrow  ¶ signs. 

My gut feeling is that most (if not all) online digitized copies would omit
these. 

It seems to be a generally overlooked punctuation mark.
