I am the Jennings County Local History & Genealogy Librarian and am going through some of our old records. In an old Probabe Record book of our Court of Common Pleas is a document dated April 14,1855. Joseph Draper administrator of the Estate of William Demoss is petitioning for the conveyance of Real Estate from the Estate. It lists the following heirs of William Demoss - Wilson age 18, Elizabeth age 15, Charles age 12, Martin age 9, Maria/Mary age 7, Martha age 4 and the Widow Phebe. The entire record is four pages in the book, but I thought I would post this just in case someone is researching this family. William Demoss may have died quite a while before this was done as these Estates take a long time to settle and sale of Real Estate is not one of the first things usually done.
