Supposedly, the deed executed by Ticey AMBROSE in 1846 says "David and Mathias are deceased". Yet David appears on the census in Morgan Co. in 1850, in court records in 1851, and with his son, Archibald M. in Illinois in 1860.
General Notes
He is listed as an appraiser in the Morgan County estate of Thomas BARNEY, filed 4 Feb 1851.
