About Catherine Demoss
Evidence needed to support Catherine Demoss as daughter of Pierre Callet & Catherine Callet
Disputed origins
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Unknown-558987
The maiden name of Catherine, wife of Lewis DeMoss is nowhere recorded. That she is a Catherine Callot or Callet from France is part of discredited information claiming that her husband Lewis Demoss was the son of Louis Dumas and Marthe Duval de Rocoulle. See Lewis Demos profile for further information.
Family
The origins of Lewis [sic] Demoss are currently unknown but he is found in Baltimore County by 1715 and still resided there in 1731. He married Catherine _________________. In Aug 1719 he was fined for refusing to repair his road.[1] Please note there is no documentation of his wife's maiden name nor the date of marriage.
By 1735 he is found in Old Frederick County, Virginia where he is first mentioned 12 Nov 1735 in the 1315 acre patent on Mill Creek for John Mills. James Wood surveyed land for his wife Catherine in 1734 or 1735.[2]
It may be read that he is interred at Bunker Hill, Berkeley, West Virginia and this was his last known residence. However, there is no documentation of his date or place of burial.
Children[1]
Note: Barnes cited immediately above did not find first daughter Catherine in the records and thus does not list her but she is named in the Will. All children believed born Deer Creek, Harford County.
