Notes for Mary Allen Demaree:
I have the following information to prove that Mary Allen Demaree is connected to The Demarest Family by the Demarest Family Association: -the reference on page 1148 of the History of Switzerland County mentioning her parents David Demaree and Rachel Blunk -Abstract of a death abstract for the Indiana board of health giving the same information (inf: Scott Culbertson)-the nearness of the grave of David Demaree's Mother's grave at Long Run Baptist Church-Allen is a family name that is used often in that line -it would be easy for reaserchers to overlook her because she was probably born after David died. I have her birthday based on the death report. I think the date is probably right, but a year late. This would be confirmed by the 1850 census where she is listed as being 33.
