This paper presents an investigation on the four open clusters Czernik 14, Haffner 14, Haffner 17 and King 10 located near the Perseus arm of Milky Way Galaxy using Gaia DR2, 2MASS, WISE, APASS and Pan-STARRS1 data sets. We find normal interstellar extinction in twelve photometric bands for these clusters. Likely cluster members are identified as 225, 353, 350 and 395 for Czernik 14, Haffner 14, Haffner 17 and King 10, respectively by using Gaia DR2 proper motion data. Radii are determined as 3.5, 3.7, 6.2 and 5.7 arcmin for Czernik 14, Haffner 14, Haffner 17 and King 10 respectively. Mean proper motions in RA and DEC are estimated as (-0.42 pm 0.02, -0.38 pm 0.01), (-1.82 pm 0.009, 1.73 pm 0.008), (-1.17 pm 0.007, 1.88 pm 0.006) and (-2.75 pm 0.008, -2.04 pm 0.006) mas/yr for Czernik 14, Haffner 14, Haffner 17 and King 10, respectively. The comparison of observed CMDs with solar metallicity isochrones leads to an age of 570 pm 60, 320 pm 35, 90 pm 10 and 45 pm 5 Myr for these clusters. The distances 2.9 pm 0.1, 4.8 pm 0.4, 3.6 pm 0.1 and 3.8 pm 0.1 kpc determined using parallax are comparable with the values derived by the isochrone fitting method. Mass function slopes are found to be in good agreement with the Salpeter value. The total masses are derived as 348, 595, 763 and 1088 solar mass for the clusters Czernik 14, Haffner 14, Haffner 17 and King 10, respectively. Evidence for the existence of mass-segregation effect is observed in each cluster. Using the Galactic potential model, Galactic orbits are derived for the clusters. The present study indicates that all clusters under study fallow a circular path around the Galactic center.
