File Box L - 1, Case 1586  The Estate of Amos London, Jr, Deceased

Deposition of D. G. Bills at Marshall Co., Tennessee, 4 March 1861

D G Bills, aged about seventy years who answers and says – I knew Amos London 
late of Giles County, Tennessee for some fifty years before his death. I knew 
him first in North Carolina then in Tennessee. He never had any child or 
children born in wedlock and died leaving neither child or children or the 
representatives of such. He had one brother only, his name was John London who 
died in Marshall County, Tennessee. He left a good many children & among them 
was Sarah, who intermarried with Thomas Parks. They are both dead and have two 
living children, viz. John L and James M Park. One daughter of said Thomas and 
Sarah Park married Nicholas Tomblinson & she is dead and has left one child, I 
believe. Amos London had three sisters. One of them married Brice Jackson – 
Jackson & wife as I understand are both dead. They left some children, but the 
number I can not tell. One other of his sisters married a man by the name of 
Johnson Summers. He died and she married a man by the name of Abner Rose. They 
are both long since dead and she died without child or children or the 
representatives of such. The other of Amos’ sisters married a man by the name 
of Palmer. As to Palmer and wife I speak principally from information and 
family reputation, but as to the children if any I can not speak from my own 
information but I am well satisfied that these four are the only brothers and 
sisters of the said Amos London and further this deponent says not.
