    "John Crunk's estate was in court in 1844 in Posey County. His heirs included his widow, Martha, and Joseph, Samuel, Timothy, Mathew, Abner, David, John, William, James, and Fanny Crunk; David & Rachel Utley; Robert & Nancy Watkins; Mathew & Ann Duty, and Elizabeth, John & William Byrd. (Source: Cox, Carroll & Gloria, Posey County, Indiana: A Documented History, self-published, Poseyville, IN 1982, volume I page 45)."

    Without viewing the document, one possible deduction:
    1. Joseph, Samuel, Timothy, Mathew, Abner, David, John are children of John, living in 1844.
    2. William, James, and Fanny Crunk are grandchildren, of son William D (deceased by 1844) and Nancy Hunter; Nancy Watkins is their sister.
    3. David & Rachel Utley are son-in-law and daughter.
    4. Robert & Nancy Watkins are grandson-in-law and granddaughter; Nancy is the sister of William, James and Fanny.
    5. Mathew & Ann Duty are grandchildren, of daughter Mary "Polly" and Matthew Duty.
    6. Elizabeth, John & William Byrd are grandchildren, of daughter Nancy and Briant Byrd.
