Complex 1913 Marion County land suit notes several heirs
Legal notice reports Johannes De Vos as plaintiff in a land adjudication in Marion County Iowa. It lists numerous defendants and unknown heirs and seeks reform of multiple deeds to clarify title to a 260 85 acre tract described by metes and bounds. The document names many grantors, grantees, and heirs and requests court action to quiet title, with a September 30 1913 deadline for defense. It also includes a proof of will notice for Hendrik DeWild with a September 30 1918 hearing date.
